Totsu:
I still have a couple questions. It says if the throw fails the target still loses his next action phase. Since the throw was successful how many action phases does the target lose?
Second question. At medium range you said a jujutsu attack is at -2. I thought jujutsu was a short range attack. I thought there was no attack closer than short range. I thought the contact modifiers were just modifiers if you happen to be in the middle of being grappling?
Since I performed the takedown throw successfully it says the opponent is now at my feet. So is he now at short range (or contact range if this is such a thing)?
Also could you get into how the movement’s works after you are engaged? I thought you were allowed to always move 1 yard in any direction after engaged?
If I attempt to move closer and fail do I still get to attack?
How does the speed ST work while engaged? Do both opponents roll and the best effect wins or does the attacker just need a success? If both roll what happens with a tie?
I also have questions on exactly how charge works. Under Charge it says that it is resolved on action phase 2 after all other actions are resolved. So I'm confused since you said the guy did charge me and attacked me in AP 10.
Your throw was successful, he loses no action phases.
Contact is, by definition, required to throw someone unless using the Budoka KI power. You performed a take-down, are no longer touching the opponent, so it is short range.
Movement depends on which type of action you are doing. Some actions allow a 1 yard move, some do not.
The SP saves are covered in the rules thread, but essentially, if you are attempting to get closer than someone is threatening you, and they wish to deny you, both make SP saves. Best effect gets their way.
He did not use a Charge action, he used a Close to Engage action.
I'd like to add that the rules, and my DM style, can also be adjust for situation. It's usually easier to just take your action and find out what happens. More role-playing that way too - the chance of heroics! I promise I won't intentionally screw anyone :D.
