This is just a placeholder for my new fighting system.  A limited action based fighting system where two players can fight using pre-made characters. Like a fighting game for text. But with an independent third party (one or more persons) to resolve the results of each round (post).

[b]Example Of Sequencing[/b]
In this competition there is a fighting game showdown Player A is using the Karate Fighter and Player B is using the Boxer.

[i]Player A: My dude throws a [b]straight arm punch to the mid section[/b], then[b] weaves to the right[/b], and attempts a [b]hold[/b].

Player B: My Character attempts to [b]slip the punch[/b], [b]throw a jab at his chin [/b]and then [b]shove to counter the hold attempt[/b]

Moderator: The Boxer who has a much higher speed stat is able to literally beat the karate fighter to the punch, slipping and landing the jab perfectly on the chin of the karate fighter, who doesn't even get a chance too throw his punch. However, weaving to the right he is able to dodge the shove and succesfully go through with his hold. His much higher strength and the timing of the attempt mean that the boxer is now caught. Both players are now [b]In the clinch*.[/b]
[/i]

*In the Clinch is one of the 4 states that two fighters can be in. The clinch represents two standing fighters in a grappling state.

(Now Player B will decided to forfeit all 3 actions to use a Special Attack, these can be used at anytime unless stated otherwise, but not if a special attack or a chain combo was used the last turn.)



[i]Player A: My character will attempt to [b]Headbutt the boxer[/b] then [b]trap the arm for a tighter clinch [/b] and finally [b]execute a foot sweep trip.[/b]

Player B: My boxer is enraged and uses the 'Kidney Killer' Special Attack.

Moderator: Once again the boxer's speed trumps the opponent  and her fist blazes in a upward motion slamming into the right side of her opponents back, causing him to jolt and completely fail the headbutt attempt. But he was still able to then quickly trap his opponents arm to prevent any further punching. Now when he attempted his sweep, his superior technique and strength meant that he was able to complete the trip but his body was now in so much pain he doubled over and gripped his kidney, coughing violently. Players are no longer in clinch. Boxer is lightly tripped Karateka is on knee and [b]stunned*[/b].
[/i]


*Being stunned means that for the next turn you only have 1 action instead of 3 as is the time it takes to recover.
