Not really. Fei Long's style is a mix of Wing Chun (Rekka Ken) Snake
(look at his jabs in the video game) and Dragon (the Kick... duh). You
can emulate many of the existing Kung Fu styles in the RPG by just
picking the right maneuvers from the existing list.

Since this version of Kung Fu came from Fei Long (a Bruce Lee wanabe,
but
a cool one) can we assume that it's Wing Chun (I think that was Bruces'
original style).

Who's knowledge of Kung Fu is even less than his knowledge of Kabaddi.

Although this is a little off the topic of firearms, I have Ninjas &

the many styles in Ninjas $ Superspies into Streetfighter styles for future
issues of Warrior's Pride...

Whisper approached the crowd just as the fight ended. Gokiwa was once
again on the ground, and an attractive woman stood triumphant above him. She
took a moment to pose for some shutterbug tourists and turned to the new
arrival.
"Do you want a piece of this?" she asked with a wry smile, posing
seductively. Whisper's mechanical face betrayed no emotion.
"You've made quite a name for yourself here, Ms. Garcia," he said in a
hushed, artifical voice, "but have you truely learned anything?"
"From him, no. And I don't think you have anything to teach me," she
replied, her smile gone.
"We shall see. We shall see..."
With that he disappeared into the crowd. "If you wish to learn, you'll
be able to find me..."
Gokiwa looked up from the ground and wondered if he would find Akuma so
easily when the time came, and if he would be ready...

hmmm....me thinks you'll have to go back to your Secrets of Shadowloo book
for THIs one;
in the description of Lerdrit it states; " Ler Drit is M. Bison's own unique
fighting style, one that combines Soviet assassination techniques, powerful
jumping movements and Bison's own dark Psychic powers. ............."
"......Has been practicing and developing Ler Drit for nearly15 years now.
He is continually improving the style adding new techniques. This is yet
another reason for his involvement in the World Warrior circut."
According to this, Bison just came up with his own style with whatever
worked. Since he's from Russian military (According to WW, but it kinda
makes sense since he wares that weird outfit, and doesn't look THAI at all!)
he uses some special forces techniques, but since he is also Psycho....well,
you know how much Chi he can waste in a match. I dont' know how you came
under the Impression that he practiced Muay Thai. I've seen MANY varyations
of Muay Thai, and his Ler Drit doesn't resemble it at all. No Knees, no
elbows....he dosen't even stand the same way.
Just my observation...

My book entitled "Martial Arts Around the World" disagrees with you.
Ler Drit is, regardless of what White Wolf's sourcebooks state, a real
style that does indeed exist, and it is a Special Forces variant of Thai
Kickboxing. Whether M. Bison actually practices a heavily modified
version of that style is up for debate, but I offer you this; if you
look carefully at Bison's kick animations, especially in Super SF2, you
will notice that his leg spins up and sideways without chambering, which
is characteristic of Muay Thai. His leaping arm strikes are elbow-out,
and his close-in short kick is a knee strike.

How very interesting!
I had never heard of there being a real life Ler Drit till now!...
Of course like Kabaddi, White Wolf/Capcom wanted to find a name of a sytle
(or sport) from the region, to name the fighting technique.
The knees, I can buy...allthough his posture for striking with them seems
uncharacteristic. Still, I am unable to find any "elbow" animations. I just
beat the game with him on SSF2....Mayhaps I cannont see them, else they be
another version of the game.
Thanx a Ton for the Education!
