I do not believe that initiating a grapple and following up with a takedown on the same turn is legal. Its a similar situation to arm locks. Also, how did you get the rapid strike penalty down to -1? you have trained by a master, yes, but that just gets you down to -3.

EDIT: oh, flurry of blows. Be aware that one is 1 FP per attack, and its nice to state it explicitly.

For the record, I'm not a fan of either rule.

it does say that under the rules for Takedown in Basic, however under Grappling and Multiple Attacks on page 128 of MA it says that you're able to perform multiple grappling actions that would normally take a turn provided each are rolled as a separate attack? It also specifically mentions you can grapple and make an instant follow-up. Throws from Locks have been specifically called out as not part of this on SJG, but I haven't found anything saying so for Takedowns.

Also, regardless it was a Leg Grapple attempt. Which means Lane has to use his dodge to defend, not his parry, with the -3 from Riposte.

Good catch Dblade and Derrick.
14:01, Today: Vulco1 rolled 5 using 3d6.  Retreating Dodge (11 (+3 Retreat - 3 Riposte)).

---

Lane snatches his leg back and out of the way of Baogang's reach.

So, how far away is Lane now?

I believe the rules say that the retreat happens simultaneously of the attack, so Lane is technically the same distance from you that he started at until the end of the round. So you can finish your attacks.

At that point he'll be 1 yard away. Unless Baogang takes a step and follows Lane.

His attempt at a grapple thwarted, Baogang makes another attempt to down his opponent, this time with a sweeping low kick.

16:06, Today: Dblade rolled 10 using 3d6.  Judo Sweep QC if it hits, vs 13. MoS 3

16:05, Today: Dblade rolled 12 using 3d6.  Judo Sweep Kick roll  TN 13.

16:27, Today: Vulco1 rolled 10 using 3d6.  Dodge (14 (11 Dodge +3 Retreat)).

---

Lane does a quick step over Baogang's leg sweep, narrowly avoiding it.

Your turn.

3 Committed Attacks using Rapid Strike and Flurry of blows -3FP
Penalty:-6 For each additional attack -> -12 Penalty for each attack for Rapid strike -> -6 Penalty for each attack for Trained By Master -> -3 Penalty for each attack for Flurry of blows.
First attack is a Pressure point punch

---

Lane summons some extra vigor and unleashes what he hopes to be a devastating combo. A punch, a kick, then another punch

---

There's a lot going on below so I used the colors to separate out each move.
17:16, Today: Vulco1 rolled 11 using 3d6.  Pressure Point Punch to hit (12(15 Punch -2 PP -3 Flurry +2 Committed ))vs 3d6.
Success
If it hits,
17:16, Today: Vulco1 rolled 10 using 3d6.  Hit Location.
Torso,
Roll a QC vs your HT to see if the PP works. If you lose, you have to roll vs HT every turn and lose 1FP

MoS -1

17:18, Today: Vulco1 rolled 5 using 3d6.  Punch 2 (14(15+2Committed Attack-3Flurry) vs 3d6.
If that hits,
17:20, Today: Vulco1 rolled 4 using 1d6+2.  Punch 2 Damage.

Baogang falls back under the fierce onslaught, deflecting each of the powerful strikes. Against the last punch he makes another unbalancing Cloud Hands Parry.


19:58, Today: Dblade rolled 13 using 3d6.  Judo Parry Roll,13+3 (Retreating)+2 Feverish Defense -2 Riposte -2 Multiple parries TN 14 .-1 FP.

19:56, Today: Dblade rolled 12 using 3d6.  Judo Parry Roll,13+3 (Retreating) TN 16

Baogang then attempts to seize on the unbalancing by seizing Lane's wrist on the last punch and whirling him into a throw on his outstretched arm.

Edit: Forgot the penalty for Multiple parries after my second Judo parry, but still make the roll AFAIK.

08:16, Today: Vulco1 rolled 8 using 3d6.  Retreating Dodge( (11+3 retreating -3 Riposte)) vs 3d6.

---

Lane snaps his fist back and takes another step backward.

Before Lane retreats out of the way, Baogang takes a shot at his legs with another sweep, though its as much an attempt to discourage Lane and test his balance s anything

09:14, Today: Dblade rolled 9 using 3d6.  QC for leg sweep, Lane gets +1 to QC. MoS 4

09:13, Today: Dblade rolled 8 using 3d6.  Defensive Leg Sweep, TN 13 to hit. Success

He lifts his leg over the sweeping kick.

your turn now.

10:27, Today: Vulco1 rolled 16 using 3d6.  Kick(13)vs 3d6.

---

Lane tries to kick from the middle distance but misses.

---

Your turn

Did you roll against DX or Immovable Stance to avoid falling down after missing your kick?

Baogang takes a step back and Evaluates.

Nope.  I forgot
10:34, Today: Vulco1 rolled 10 using 3d6.  Immovable stance (13) vs roll.

---

Lane evaluates Baogang for any opening.  Scrutinizing the fellow combatant.

you can't Evaluate, you took an attack maneuver.

Baogang stays where he is and evaluates his foe once more, sizing him up for openings.

your turn again BTW, pretty sure Evaluate takes up my full turn?

Are you talking about that roll with the immovable stance? That wasn't an attack maneuver, I was just wrapping up the missed kick roll that you reminded me of, to make sure I wasn't on my back this round. And the kick was from the turn before you took your step and evaluate, so I think it's legal. Or am I missing something?

Defensive Attack
10:43, Today: Vulco1 rolled 11 using 3d6.  Defensive Attack Kick (14(13+1 Evaluate)) vs roll.
if it hits, 10:44, Today: Vulco1 rolled 1 using 1d6.  Kick damage (1d( 1d+2 kick - 2 Defensive attack).

---

Lane maintains his distance of a yard away and snaps off a weak kick at Baogang.

Immoveable stance does not require an attacking maneuver. Its one of those weird defense skills.

Baogang once again pivots and slips aside from Lane's kick, then tries to follow up with a sudden, quick throw.


13:23, Today: Dblade rolled 12 using 3d6.  Judo throw 16+2(Committed Attack) -6 (deceptive attack) 12 total.

13:20, Today: Dblade rolled 6 using 3d6.  Judo Parry roll, 12+1(Defensive Attack) +2 (Sideslip Retreat) TN 15

Did you take 3 levels of deceptive attack? I'm going to assume you did in my roll.
11:10, Today: Vulco1 rolled 10 using 3d6.  Dodge (10 (11-Dodge, +2 Defensive Attack-3 Deceptive) vs roll.

---

Lane snaps his leg back just in time to dodge what looks to be a throw.

A defensive attack only gives a +1 to defend.
