NytefallMaybe I'll do that then, I can't really be bothered to commit to anymore fighting while I owe like three people battles but I wouldn't want to see a multiverse attempt stall from the outset.

Don't worry, while i don't have my post for this thread ready, neither is my CS for the GCL finished. I'm procrastinating equally on both. :P
I'm really divided on the GCL thing, on the one hand Darth seems to know what he's doing and has a good system (for the most part, some things are stupid like the obvious advantages for ranged magical combat over physicality and some other funky spell effects) but on the other hand I don't like the ethics of that site and some of the participants seem like grade-A douche-bags, even by combat-RPG standards.
I'm still heavily tempted though, just to see how far I can get with a character who is quite literally just amazing at throwing stones.
Can I play as a non-combatant Pandaren bar-keep with a dark secret?
@Vordak Come on mang, this fight has already dragged out way past the time limit and it definitely wouldn't be in your favour to get a judge decision now, get flailing around.
Not too shabby, it seems like a lot of the people who expressed interest never made it to the OOC for some reason.
Fold underneath, of course. All that limits Sigurd's range of movements plays to my cause. >:3
I doubt it would make much difference in the end, Sigurd knows when to discard a useless tool, he literally frizbee'd his shield away the moment he was lifted. Sigurd sheds equipment faster than any of my characters, and its a trait most of them share.
Yep, I had a little refresher and that's basically the case, would be a little stupid to have arteries on the outside of the thigh when you think about it from an evolutionary perspective.
Still, big nasty cut on the leg is gunna bleed a lot, and make moving it around a bitch, should be a fair trade for tanking out the attack.
What would you prefer to happen with the sword? Fly out of Sigurd's hand or fold underneath Gigue as he lands?

OK, the thigh is a good target for a sword-cut so that definitely counts against Gigue in this case. If the sword had hit Gigue in the waist coupled with his body weight, armour and momentum I would have expected a gouging cut of some moderate severity and then Sigurd's sword would fold back on itself and probably fly out of his hand or hurt his wrist or w/e. However hitting the thigh I can see it cutting and then slipping, making more of a mess in general, it could even severe an artery (my human biology is pretty shit, I know the main femoral artery is on the inside of the leg but I think it has some branches on the outside.)
However in our immediate circumstances Gigue only needs one of his legs, so it might not matter that much if he suffers a wound to his left leg.
So, my compromise is Gigue suffers a moderate bleeding wound to his leg which is stifled somewhat by his close fitting armour, Sigurd's sword either flies out of his hand or gets sandwiched between the two of them and he suffers a sprained wrist (Sigurd wears an iron chest plate so it wouldn't really do anything to him) the rest of Gigue's move can go ahead as he wishes (with his kicks and whatnot) but bear in mind Sigurd's left arm is over his torso so it won't be a clean rib crushing ass-slam of epic proportion. In either scenario Sigurd's right arm will be in the way of a kick (presumably with the right leg, as the left would be injured), but Gigue is strong enough to probably fuck up Sigurd's arm when he blocks with it anyway.
End result, Gigue has a wound that impairs his mobility and potentially bleeds him a little (though not likely to be fatal) so perhaps a two inch deep but very messy gouging wound on his thigh. Sigurd either loses his sword or it gets sandwiched and sprains his wrist (not to mention he will take whatever damage is incurred from the ass slam in my next post.)
Seem fair? If not we can always just have Pollen judge how much damage the cut incurs.

Alright, so Gigue continues his original plan and dives onto Sigurd. As he's attempting to actually hurt him I'd assume he's at least attempting to fall from a foot or two above Sigurd's torso, the blade would probably meet him about half-way through his jump, so perhaps half or maybe a third of the way down the blade as it's at about 60-70 degrees, what part of Gigue would it hit at that point assuming Sigurd's original target while he was break dancing was basically directly in the middle?
