A friend of mine has two ten-sided dice to his name. He had large die
pools and therefore had to roll them both a lot. He was absent-minded
and tended to forget his numbers about halfway through the series of
rolls.

He annoyed us greatly.

All right I will use real dices, but dammit I must buy at last ten
of them but, if it make the players happy, like a Klutz and friend fight
manager like me, I can spend this money and do this hand work.

I let the warm sensation of satifaction flow over me. It had worked,
despite Rinaldo's, and my, fears. I had defeated the warrior Justin
Credible (one of these days, I'll have to get someone to explain the
joke), quite easily to. I don't know why Rinaldo was so worriend by him,
he only looked frightening.

New warriors are signing up all the time now. I hope that Rinaldo will
have enough soon to start the tournament. These fights are enlightening,
but not taking me to the goal.

But then Rinaldo banned him from the tournament. Why? He obviously
wasn't invincible, and it was equally obvious that neither was I. So it
couldn't be because of that. I'll have to ask Rinaldo later.

Which naturaly brings me to my recent defeat. I had never fought a woman
before, indeed living at a dojo for fifteen years, I had rarely even seen
a woman. I look at Danielle and shake my head in amazement. Her back is
supporting a lot of weight. It must hurt her terribly.

Still she defeated me, soundly. If I managed to hit her, I don't remember
it. I even wound up in the makeshift First-Aid tent where Watson found
me.

My conversation with Watson intrigues me, and not just because he told
about one of Akuma's disciples. I was angry, contemptuous, even
condesending, all emotions I though long buries and only echos remained
off. It didn't last, soon I was back to abnormal, but at least I retained
a small sense of Irony. Perhapse I should loose fights more often.

Enough of that, another potential path to the goal is in sight. Watson
told me that Unknown was one of Go... no. Goki, my uncle, is dead. Only
a monster called Akuma remains. Unknown is one of Akuma's disciples.
Perhapse defeating him will bring Akuma to me. At least I'll have him to
question should I win.

Sadly, Unknown proved to be as much of a challenge to me as I was to
Danielle, none at all. Good from a practical point of view I suppose, but
I had learned to enjoy the brief feeling of satifaction from a hard won
fight. Still, when he regains conscieceness, his answers to my questions
should be most interesting.

"Hey, Gokiwa, or whatever your name is..."

I turn when I hear my name. Braze, no Blaze, yes Blaze was challenging
me. I look Blaze over. A Eight Drunken Faeries student, the reek of
alchohol was an unmistakable giveaway. I look at the unconscious form of
Unknown. He shouldn't be going anywhere for a while.

I crack a smile and accept.

Right. There's only one school on earth, the Masaki Shrine in Japan
(Jurian and Jedi sort of sound alike).

* Jedi is based off of the Japanese word Jidai.

Oh the council was impressed of course;
Could he bring balance to the Force?
They interviewed the kid
Oh, training they forbid!
Because-
Yoda sensed in him much fear
And Qui-Gon said, "Now, listen here"

Pretty dangerous quote, afterall Bison thinks it's right to mind
control,
kill, terrorize, etc.

* A better one would be "Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate.
Hate leads to suffering."

Or, "My ally is the Force... and a powerful ally it is. Luminous beings
are we, not this crude matter."

And finally, "Try not. Do, or do not. There is no try."

Face it folks, Yoda rules.

Well, we'll have to wait for episode two to know if Quaidon (sp?) makes
an
astral appearance.

* Qui-Gonn.

Adam jumped out of the crowds. He looked more like a spectator than a
fighter. He wore a pair of docs, with black jeans and a black muscle shirt.
The only sign that he was a fighter were his taped hands. He ran a hand
through his short blonde hair. His blue eyes looking over the other
warriors. He threw a few phantom punches, trying to limber himself up.
"Maybe I'll challenge that karate guy", he thought to himself as he walked
over. "Damn, someone beat me to it", he muttered as a fighter carrying a
denim jacket and smoking a cigarette called out the other fighter.

Adam looked around for someone to challenge as he was approached from
behind. He felt the tap on his shoulder and had to restrain himself from
allowing instinct to take over and punching who it was. He turned around
slowly. "Yeah?"

"I wish to challenge you", the man said. Adam looked him up and down and
smiled.
"Sure, what the hell. And you are?"
"Carlos", the man replied.
"Nice to meetcha. Im Adam. Ill see you in the ring. But right now, I got to
find me a cigarette. And not an American one, I need a good old Canadian
smoke." Adam nodded to Carlos and walked away.

Excellent! Did you do a simple sketch then do a photo negative when you
scanned it? Or did you do something else?

Hmmm...have you had a lot of experience with Dice generators?
I dont' think I've ever mounted enough faith to trust em'...
You'd almost NEVER see one of my pattented "GM rolls" (usualy a botch of -2
or -3)

All right, look. We all know that a perfectly fair die does not exist,
right? Every one of them is weighted in some small, possibly sub-atomic,
way. By the same token, a perfectly fair electronic die roller can not
exist. No computer is capeable of true randomness. Now it's possible
that Rinaldo's die roller is flawed in some way (I've seen 'weighted' die
rollers before, I've even made them when I needed my players to have high
stats for a campaign), but I doubt that would change things much.

One possibility does come to me though, I haven't seen a botch yet (if
one's happened, please point it out to me). Most die rollers aren't set
up for the storyteller system. If Rinaldo just sets a difficulty then the
die roller probably won't subtract the ones from the successes. Or it's
possible that he's forgotten on occasion. I've done it myself so I'm not
going to lay too much blame out.

New maneuver: Static Electricity (AKA "the Rug Buzz")

Cost: Any 1

Pre-requisites: Punch 1, Kick 1, Focus 1, Dex 2

Description: the fighter quickly scuffs his feet on the carpeted floor
of the arena to build up charge, then touches his opponent. More
annoying than painful, nevertheless a fighter with good Chi control can
really muck up an opponent with this move.

System: this maneuver only works when the fighter is standing on a
carpet. Double damage ensues if opponent is wet. Damage is calculated
using Focus + Maneuver modifier only, however the first time an opponent
is hit with the Rug Buzz, they must take a -2 Speed penalty next turn as
they stand there, dumbfounded that someone would use such a ridiculous
and idiotic maneuver on them.

Speed: -2
Damage: +2
Move: 1 (counts as a grab; fighter must move into opponents hex to
execute)
Cost: none

Unless your changing things, 9th rank fighters are World Warriors who
rarely fight anything but other World Warriors in matches.

Still, I'm game, I'll be sending you a character soon.

I'm surprised there's no Grab 1 prereq. Why do you need Punch and Kick
(only maneuver I know of like that is Triple Strike)?

On a side note, my first SF character had a Focus of one. Boy was I
ticked that there was nothing I could do with that. Since she also had a
Punch and kick of 3 and a dex of 4, this move would have made her happy.

I've never even got a character to fifth rank (spent too much time out of
tournament). I've seen two different systems for making advanced
characters. One of them is from Pittman and can be found in the vault.
The other one is by Christian Conkle and can, as near as I can tell, not
be found anywhere except in the Egroups archive (it's the seven hundred
and thirtyth message, back when egroups was makelist, damn I'm old.)

Or do you have your own system in mind?

Hmmm...the Juraian school of Swordsmanship on par with
Jedi Lightsaber Training? If this is the case, what
then equates to Teras Kasii (sp?), the Jedi UNARMED
form of combat?

My own little suggestion...why not just use fifteen freebie points per rank
level? 30 at Rank 2, 45 at Rank 3, etc. Doesn't work too badly, I've
found, and can make some very well-balanced characters, provided you don't
abuse the system _too_ much. Not bad at all, in my limited opinion.

Hey guys...

I've been hearing a lot of talk about "house rules"
and was just wondering if these could be of any
use...they're ones I've developed for my current
campaign (4 years strong and going). If anyone
already has these, or different versions, I would be
honored to hear of them...

* 10's count as 2 successes, but are completely
canceled by a 1. (i.e. each 10 is canceled separately
by each 1...)

* Hitting more than one opponent with a single
opponent move: +1 Difficulty per opponent after the
first.

* Weapons and Aggravated Damage -
Blunt Weapons do 1 point of Aggravated damage for
every 2 10's rolled, in addition to normal damage.
Bladed Weapons do 1 point of Aggravated damage for
every 10 rolled, in addition to normal damage.
Firearms automatically do Aggravated damage.

* Ranged Weapon Difficulties -
Point Blank - 4 - Melee Range (within 2 hexes)
Close - 6 - more than 2 hexes away but less than 1/4
full range.
Medium - 7 - between 1/4 and 1/2 full range.
Long - 8 - between 1/2 and full range.
Extreme - 9 - up to 2x full range.

* Death -
If a character takes as much Aggravated damage as
their permanent Health score, they'll soon expire
unless they pass a Stamina test (Dif. 7, # of
successes = 11 - Willpower), or medical attention is
given within (Stamina) turns. A Stamina test is also
needed if a character takes at least twice their
Stamina in Aggravated damage in a single hit, or die
from shock.

* Learning Times (for experience) -
Chi and Willpower - 2 weeks per point gained
Abilities, Attributes, and Techniques - 1 month per
point gained.
Special Maneuvers - 2 months per Power Point
involved.
If a sensei or other teacher makes their
Intelligence +Instruction roll, all times listed above
are halved, in addition to lower point costs.

I have also developed an Alternate Ability system...if
anyone is interested please let me know.

Josh

Punch to successfully poke your opponent with your charged finger.

I'm surprised there's no Grab 1 prereq. Why do you need Punch and Kick
(only maneuver I know of like that is Triple Strike)?

On a side note, my first SF character had a Focus of one. Boy was I
ticked that there was nothing I could do with that. Since she also had
a
Punch and kick of 3 and a dex of 4, this move would have made her happy.

Teras Kasi is *not* the unarmed form of the Jedi. Arden Lynn was not a
Jedi, nor even a Sith warrior, by any stretch of the imagination. She
was a mercenary, the last master of a nearly-lost fighting art. The
fact that her only pupil was a Tusken Raider attests to the fact that
you don't really need Force training to be a Teras Kasi fighter. :)
Besides, it's closer to Wu Shu than any Japanese art anyway.

The question isn;t the avoidability of the maneuver I think, but the damage
it can cause when it does hit (think of what that means to a dizzed
opponent). So any time at all a victim has some space behind him he's gonna
have to abort to another maneuver and lose willpower when the CWK character
uses his move (and he normally will). Kinda Cheesy.

True, I am assuming this on all other sources to date.
Interesting Fact: In novels and comics there were many sith at one time, but
now only two can appear at a time... lame of the new movie to limit the star
wars universe in this manner, no?

Actualy, I read that the Lightsaber weighs a good deal, which is why we see
all characters using such weapons with both hands, except for Vader, who was
cyberneticaly enhanced.

Hmm, true. I wasn't thinking of the cross-over fights at the time...
I would add this to the description of Lightsaber: Any weapon that is
designed to block highly concentrated energy effects can also block a
Lightsaber, such as some mystical artifacts (magic swords and shields), very
high tech weapons and armor (force fields, other types of energy weapons,
and energy/laser reflective armor, for example), and possibly other unique
items (Captain America's shield, Wonder Woman's bracelets, or a weapon or
shield made from Green Lantern's Power Ring, for example.

Again, Jedi Training could be made to apply to someone being trained by a
member of the dark side, in which case "You must do what you feel is right"
applies, but none of those fancy Yoda quotes...

I made some simple sketches, added a glow with one of my really cooool
programs, then reversed the color. Oldest trick in the book.

This a new bout between Carlos Torres (Npc) and Adam Ramsey (Mike
Morgado), I using a
guy with Cartwheel Kick everybody talk about this move but I don´t know
why.

Carlos Torres style: Capoeira country: Brazil player: Npc

Appearance: A african american guy with medium build, 6'0" 150 lbs,
short black hair
, brown eyes and brown skin he dresses a white pants don´t use shoes.

Quote before fight: "Minha fé em nosso senhor Jesus Cristo me fará
vencer"
Translation: "My faith in our lord Jesus Christ make me win".

Vs
Adam Ramsey style: Boxing country: ? player: Mike Morgado

Appearance: An attractive young man in his early 20s, stands 5 feet, 11
inches and
weighs in at 170 lbs. His short blonde hair is neatly combed and
his piercing blue eyes are full of determination. He wears a pair of
black doc
martins, black jeans and a black muscle shirt and his hands are taped
up.
He throws a few punches to warm up.

Quote before fight: ........!!!

Arena: Copacabana beach, many people are looking.

Fighters are 3 hexes from each other the ring bells and fight start.

Move 1- Carlos Torres moves 7 hexes back and Adam Ramsey move 5 hexes
and make a
Dashing punch but hit air.
Move 2- Carlos Torres blocks for his combo and Adam Ramsey move 1 to
make a Haymaker
but hit nothing.
Move 3- Adam Ramsey try to block but Carlos Torres Cartwheel kick for
his combo is
more faster and Adam Ramsey receives: 2 points,2 points,2 points,2
points and 3
points of damage and is a Knockout.
Carlos Torres wins by knockout.
Carlos Torres dances.
Winning quote: "Meu movimento é veloz e mortal também". Translation: "My
movement is
faster and deadly too"

So this the Cartwheel kick efect gee is a hot move now I know why some
people love it
and other hate it too.

I have a great idea! I would like for players to submitt versions of awesome
characters from comics, movies and books, and let's fight them out! I will
call this tournament Mighty Mayhem. Here are the guidelines:

1. Characters can have any style, maneuvers, weapons, etc, that the player
wishes. However, they may be tweaked a bit by me until I feel the character
is "right". There is no limit to maneuvers known or power levels, but
characters submitted with Attributes, Abilities, or Techniques in the 7-8
range better have a good reason! Any character with a score in these areas
of higher than 8 is too powerful for these fights (no Superman or Thanos
with the Infinity Gauntlet please).

2. Characters should be sent with a 20-round strategy, similar to the other
tournaments, with a description of what the character will do when he
dizzies an opponent.

3. Only famous characters will be allowed, ones that almost everyone will
have heard of (at least submit ones you think I would have heard of lol).
Robin Hood, Bruce Lee, The Predator, whatever.

4. The best ideas and well-done characters will be added to the Contenders
section of Dogs of War, and who submitted them (include this with your
submission). I'll then rotate the battles where all the characters can match
up against each other. Who wants to see Wolverine Vs. Judge Dread? I love
it!

I was gonna make up a "regular" tournament, but I thought this was diffrent
and fun. I hereby challenge all real street fighter fans to come up with the
best coolest idea and closest write-up of thier idea!
