USH'S MATRIX GAME- The Dojo

And do you wish to be armed?

naw its ok, i think i can handle them, ill work on gun skill some other time

I was thinking about the knives, but very well!

"Hey! Stop right there!" says the three guards. They charage at you from different angles with their nightsticks.

--------
Guard 1: ok
Guard 2: ok
Guard 3: ok

Burn: 8/0/0
---------

Those three numbers for you, Burn, are, in order, Focus pool, hits suffered and Exertion

As you have the highest speed (BOY do you!) you go first. It's the start of a round, so use any start-of-round effects now...

hehe speedy me!!
I run up to the nearest gaurd, grab his nightstick in my left and deliver a lightning fast (punch) to his adams apple with my right, then circle around him and wait for teh response, thats four moves right, run up, grab stick, punch, spin off

Gosh no! You only want to make one move at a time and you can move into attack someone as one. If you used all your moves now the remaianing gurards would get eight attacks on you...

So, if we asusme you can only do one thing, what move do you want?

oo, my bad
didn't get it
so i can grab his stick and punch him as one move right??
of not i just grab his club thing

Okidokey, that is a disarm.

The guard tries to yank his stick back (dodge) but you are too fast. You grab the stick and wrench it aroumd, and can easily disarm him.

This leaves us one guard wqithout a weapon, and two with.

The first guard now simply tries to punch you, aiming a boxer's blow to your face.

The second one is attempting a weapon strike wit his nightstick. This smashes towards your collar bone.

The third guard, slightly behind you, aims a weapon blow with his nightstick towards the back of your head.

You now have to declare your reaction to each of those three attacks seperately.

(also, do remember that in a fight the only moves you can successfully perform are combat moves- unless you flee)

I'll take on somebody...

I spin off to the right to avoid both the punch and the collarbone smash,
for the guy trying to smash my head, my spin puts me to the side of him, so i punch him in the temple (punch).

Okidokey, Rex, though we are testing Martial Arts rather than guns right now...

does that work, or is the spin thingy, a non-combat move,
(btw that was a dodge)

ill go guns with him

he he he

Ok, tpt, seem to have jumped the gun there. We are still in the first action of the round., Your first action was to disarm the guard. THEIR first actions were to try and hit you. That's three seperate atacks to which you have to react seperately.

Once your reactions to those attacks are done and I tell you what the result is, then you would get your second action of the round, yeah?

So right now I wanted your defensive reaction (normally block or dodge) to the first, second and third atacks on you.

So I see, Ush. I don't mind.

o than dodge to the punch and collarbone using the spin but a block to the head smasher, i reach up and grab the nightstick as hes at the top of the wind-up, so im behind the head-smasher dude, due to the dodge, grabbing the nightstick
(ill get this sooner or later)

(o and is there a way to set up this so that when some one else posts i dont have to reload the page to see it??)

Okidoket, that is two dodges and a block (do specify what the option is you are doing, though, in case my interpretation differs from what you wanted)

The two you dodge have no chance of hitting you- their nightsticks go wild through the air. And even the one you block hasn't got much hope, trying to hit a target number of 6. You gran the nightstick as it comes down...

(All three attacks countered. Burn gains two exertion points)

--------
Guard 1: ok
Guard 2: ok
Guard 3: ok

Burn: 8/0/2
---------

Your move, Burn.

And what sort of set-up did you want, Ares?

ok, now i want to punch guard number 1 in the adams apple. (punch) fast and using hands of light

Ok. That blows two focus but pulls back an exertion point.

The guard attempts to dodge again. But your blow ctaches him in throat throat and, choking, he staggers back.

Blow is successful; Guard is hit. The guard is also exerted, and loses his next attack.

The two guards with the sticks close in again. One sweeps down for your legs, whilst the other, still behind you, tries to jab the stick at your kidneys.

OK, here goes,
(Dodge for both of them)
Using leaping storm I jump up tp the guard who i sweeping at my legs, plant 2 hands on the top of his head and flip of of him spinning in the air so i land behind him facing his back.
