[QUOTE="aramis erak, post: 6669461, member: 6779310"] Essentially, swashbuckling combat is comprised of 5 basic activities: [LIST] [*]stabbing with a sharp nasty pointy thing (attack) [*]shooting with some weapon (Attack, may be ranged) [*]using terrain features for defense (create a defense aspect) [*]making snarky remarks to throw the opponent off (either create an offensive asset, or do social damage, or create a scene asset, as appropriate.) [*]Using terrain to make attacks (either by swinging on something or dropping something from heights. (use a scene asset to make an attack) [/LIST] So... to borrow some dialogue, with rules in {} The scene - Scene asset: rocky terrain Scene asset: dust amidst the rocks Inigo Montoya: You are using Bonetti’s Defense against me, ah? {Create scene aspect: MIB's defense known} Man in Black: I thought it fitting considering the rocky terrain. {invoking scene asset "Rocky terrain" in resistance} Inigo: Naturally, you must suspect me to attack with Capa Ferro? {He succeeded; MIB declared a similar action, but has failed} Man in Black: Naturally, but I find that Thibault cancels out Capa Ferro. Don’t you? {inigo declared he's creating an offensive stance based asset, "Weak vs Capo Ferro", which MIB is declaring a resistance} Inigo: Unless the enemy has studied his Agrippa… which I have. {Inigo has succeeded at beating the defense} So, situation: Going in, Inigo has a free tag on "MiB's defense known" and on "MIB Weak vs Capo Ferro", but if someone else were to join in, MIB could be tagged for a fate point with each of these.
