Is Block 2 doing shit for me, seeing as how I've got no Block special moves?<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(It helps you block better.)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Since it adds directly to soak when you block)<br/>HomerinNYC:   Oh? Huh.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>House and Willy both raise their arms to block.  Oops.<br/>circlmastr:   The Oops I don't like.<br/>HomerinNYC:   It's probably the " Hahah" oops, rather than the Nuclear Physics " oops."<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>The former, yes.<br/>circlmastr:   I'm not sure what that means<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(It means "ha ha, that was a silly occurance" and not "something bad is happening.")<br/>circlmastr:   Ahh<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(The turn is kinda wasted but nothing bad happened.)<br/>HomerinNYC:   I presume they didn't cross the streams or anything.<br/>circlmastr:   So they didn't do.... anything?<br/>HomerinNYC:   Yeah. You two stood there.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>As Wilson dances forward to the beat, Stevens suddenly steps forward, delivering a quick right jab to the capoerista's chin.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(You both blocked.  For similar reasons.)<br/>HomerinNYC:   4 damage... Ooooh, god, I swear if he damn well stuns me...<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Your soak is 2, yes?)<br/>HomerinNYC:   Yeah.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>//roll-dice4-sides10<br/>OnlineHost:   Dullone598 rolled 4 10-sided dice:  1 3 2 1<br/>circlmastr:   Ahahaha<br/>HomerinNYC:   HAHAH! YES! YES! SCORE!<br/>HomerinNYC:   I knew I built up some good karma.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>He stumbles like a total loser.  Everyone is laughing at him.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Including his manager.<br/>HomerinNYC:   And now, I think I'm going to kick him in the face like I was planning.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Soak is 3.<br/>HomerinNYC:   Hard. I mean, remember when The Beast hits Stephen Chow into the cement? Harder than that.<br/>HomerinNYC:   9 raw damage.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>//roll-dice6-sides10<br/>OnlineHost:   Dullone598 rolled 6 10-sided dice:  9 3 5 7 7 9<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Yeah, so much for his combo.<br/>HomerinNYC:   Whoo.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Stevens gets a taste of utter ownage as Wilson's foot crashes directly into the side of his face.  A couple teeth look loose, and he's damn near out on his feet.<br/>HomerinNYC:   So, when can people abort to block, or abort from block?<br/>circlmastr:   When they spend a willpower on a move that can be aborted to.<br/>HomerinNYC:   Ah hah.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Stevens is dizzy.  Turn 2 approaches, you may declare your actions.)<br/>circlmastr:   Closing the distance with Drunken Monkey Roll<br/>HomerinNYC:   I step back a bit with the music, grinning as I dance around him a bit, clearly cocky as hell right now.<br/>HomerinNYC:   (Also, if Speeds of the actions are equal, who takes precedence if they fight? Guy with the higher Dexterity?)<br/>HomerinNYC:   Also, staying within range of him.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Yes.  If Dex is equal, Wits.  If Wits is equal, Perception.  If Perception is equal, go shoot yourself.  And roll a die to see who goes.)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Speed/movement, Circl?)<br/>HomerinNYC:   (Ahahah, High Perception/Wits FTW! )<br/>circlmastr:   (8 speed and 4 move, though I doubt I'll use all 4)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(All right.  On 7 he takes a step forward but can't really get you, so I guess you end up adjacent.)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Turn 3.  You may declare.)<br/>circlmastr:   (For humor value, House rolls under his legs and comes up behind him in the same hex)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(You interrupt his movement to do that?)<br/>circlmastr:   (No, I do it after he moves)<br/>HomerinNYC:   I use a Double Knee strike, bringing my knee first into his stomach as I move up close, and then lifting my knee to catch under his chin. 5/5+1/1 with two strikes.<br/>circlmastr:   (For that round, I mean)<br/>circlmastr:   (I'm like, 30 seconds behind the conversation for some reason....)<br/>circlmastr:   (for THIS round, I'll go with a forward kick)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Okay.  Speed/damage on the Forward?)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>//roll-dice2-sides10<br/>OnlineHost:   Dullone598 rolled 2 10-sided dice:  5 8<br/>circlmastr:   (Sorry, 5 speed 7 damage 1 move)<br/>HomerinNYC:   He used another damn Block, eh?<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Not at all!<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Stevens looks extremely surprised that nothing happened while he was dizzy.  However, the knee seems to damn near rebound off his stomach, and even his jaw is oddly more solid than the last time Wilson kicked it.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Toughskin)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>//roll-dice4-sides10<br/>OnlineHost:   Dullone598 rolled 4 10-sided dice:  5 6 7 2<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>He fires another right jab at Wilson, with vastly better results (2 damage).<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>//roll-dice2-sides10<br/>OnlineHost:   Dullone598 rolled 2 10-sided dice:  6 1<br/>HomerinNYC:   ... Bastard.<br/>circlmastr:   (ugh, brb)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Looking desperate, Willy manages to sidestep the kick, deflecting it away with one palm.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Call it a test of what you guys can handle.  You're still winning, you know.)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Anyway, it is turn 4 time.  Take as much time as you need, Circl.)<br/>HomerinNYC:   I grin, and strike with a Forward kick. 5/8/2. He can't have that much Chi...<br/>HomerinNYC:   That'd be 5/7+1/2, rather.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(He can.  Technically.  But he does not.)<br/>circlmastr:   (Back)<br/>HomerinNYC:   Well, Chi is, what, 1 point each? It'd leave him kinda light on other abilities if he'd pumped too much into it.<br/>circlmastr:   So all he did was block?<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Stevens seems to flow naturally from the jab into a vicious left cross (i.e. Fierce), but is interrupted by Wilson.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Correct.)<br/>circlmastr:   I'll try a Fierce Punch (4 speed 7 damage)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Like a striking snake, Willy lashes out to grab House's collar.  Before the punch can build any momentum, he rolls backwards, planting one foot in House's chest and using the leverage to hurl him away.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>(Back Roll Throw on 7.)<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>//roll-dice5-sides10<br/>OnlineHost:   Dullone598 rolled 5 10-sided dice:  2 1 1 3 9<br/>HomerinNYC:   Heh. Nice.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>That was for you, dude.<br/>HomerinNYC:   ... Fuck.<br/>circlmastr:   Wait, what?<br/>HomerinNYC:   Well, my luck once again vanishes down a goddamn DRAIN.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>I'm rolling in the same order I made the descriptions, so rolls for Wilson's turn first<br/>circlmastr:   Oh...<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Unfortunately, Wilson slips.  This is going to hurt.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>//roll-dice8-sides10<br/>OnlineHost:   Dullone598 rolled 8 10-sided dice:  4 7 4 8 10 2 3 7<br/>HomerinNYC:   Why the heck does the NPC get a success ratio of 1:2 whereas I got one of about -1:2?<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Dunno?<br/>HomerinNYC:   I blame evil.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>The crowd goes wild for the brutal attack.  And Wilson is very dizzy.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>//roll-dice7-sides10<br/>OnlineHost:   Dullone598 rolled 7 10-sided dice:  7 10 2 3 7 3 9<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Ye fucking gods.<br/>circlmastr:   That was damage on me, I take it?<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>...yeah.<br/>circlmastr:   Well fuck in a hat.<br/>HomerinNYC:   Well, this fight just got very one-sided.<br/>HomerinNYC:   Curse the evil AIM roller.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>House lands sprawling.  (One empty hex between him and Willy.)<br/>circlmastr:   And, it looks like, dizzy<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Yes.<br/>HomerinNYC:   So, wait, whoever takes the faster attack gets to declare theirs first?<br/>HomerinNYC:   Erm, last, rather.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Yes.<br/>HomerinNYC:   Like if I use Forward Flip Knee, and he uses a Jab, he'd get to declare that he's used a jab after I declare a forward flip knee?<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Yes, and he can interrupt you.  It just hasn't been clear because last round you were almost always faster.<br/>HomerinNYC:   That seems somehow... not quite right.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>Why not?  It makes sense that is perfect to me<br/>HomerinNYC:   Well, it means that if I use a slow move, even though he's the slower character, he gets to then choose a fast move to interrupt me.<br/>circlmastr:   He CHOOSES the move the same time you do<br/>HomerinNYC:   Despite the fact that from what I can see, he should have no particular reason, one way or another, to use that fast move- Until I declare I'm using a slow omve.<br/>circlmastr:   All moves are chosen before any are revealed<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>I picked the move before I looked at what you chose.<br/>HomerinNYC:   Alright.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>He Jabbed because he has a combo of Jab to Fierce.<br/>HomerinNYC:   Mmmm.<br/>Dullone598:    <br/>And because he knows you're fast as hell.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>
