Subject: Re: the crouch
wow,
I appreciate all the response (this is exactly why I subscribe to the list).
thanks Rinaldo for finding the damn thing. I had vague recollections it was
hidden in the back of some obscure suppliment...
pg 8, Shades of Grey: under the Lunging Punch description: "The Lunging Punch
ignores blocks unless the opponent is doing a crouching block...". implying
it can be done, but of course, theres no game mechanic for crouching blocks.
if I had to come up with a house rule on the fly I'd probably make crouching
block a seperate maneuver which cost the player a Willpower point to use
(feedback anyone?). I do agree with Steve's point about ariel immunity (I
guess that's why as written there are only 7 crouching maneuvers)

hey guys i have been sitting back for a while and have watched what has
been going on and the thing that caught my eye the most is characters
and styles being posted such as exotic dancing and football brawling.
I as well as some others would really like to see more of this because
it becomes very good resource material for other games. I really enjoy
this and hope you guys take this message to heart.
THANX,
Shane

Subject: Re: the crouch
This is my take on a crouching block. In the games, a standing block does
perfectly fine against jumping and standing maneuvers, but provides no
defense against crouching maneuvers, while a crouching block protects
against crouching and standing maneuvers, but not against jumping attacks.
A jumping attack can hit an opponent in the following way: one fighter is
doing a crouching block. The other fighter uses a jumping strong attack.
Lets say that the attacking figher's move during a jumping strong is three.
If the crouching fighter is exactly three hexes away, then the attacker can
hit him as he comes down from the attack.
Whether this adds a little extra strategy or a little extra hassle is up to
everyone else...this is just my take on it.

What I meant, Steve, is that you chould be able to
combine a crouch with any BASIC maneuver...a Crouching
Hurricane Kick, or a Crouching Lightning Leg would be
a bit ludicris...ludecras...stupid. Sorry for any
confusion.

Exotic Dancing as a Martial Art? Can somebody send me
the stats on the style? I've got a team I've been
wanting to pit against my players and this would fit
their concept perfectly.
