One problem you into when trying to simulate real fighting is you can just endlesshing keep hashing over the possible options and what they mean. Lowering defenses makes sense to me for a powerful attack, so does not hitting as accurately. Another one I like is if you have an easy way to track a person's level of energy, having your extra damage come out of there. In D&D HP might be able to carry that, but a lot of folks might find it odd, so I would possibly take it out of con temporarily instead (maybe real quick too like you get it back in ten minutes time). There are all kinds of ways to do this and I think they all connect enough to the reality to be plausible. Power Attack seemed perfectly serviceable to me in that respect.</p></blockquote><p></p>
