New rules test. Vanor vs Wicht (GD judging)

[graydoom]

The judges watch the penguins pass with interest, and the a faint hiss seems to be heard from the right judge... but they all soon turn their attention back to the fighting, where they catch the new moves executed by the two fighters.

With no sound but a hiss from the judge on the right, the left judge titls his flag to Vanor.

One point Vanor
One flag Vanor, two flags neutral

 

[Vanor]

Vanor smiles slightly at the flag being dropped to his honor. He swiches over to the scorpion stance, and rushes foward with a mighty punch.


The scorpion blasts the ruins; guards against the efforts of the steam!

 

[Wicht]

"Ha!" laughs Wicht "You take the stance of the vermin which i crush with my foot!"

The tree slaughters the mesa; wards off the thrust of the vermin!

 

[graydoom]

With a hissss, the right judge tips his flag towards Vanor as well.

One point Vanor
Two flags Vanor, one flag neutral

 

[Vanor]

Vanor feels the tide of battle turning his way, but stops himself from thinking the fight is all but over, he faces a crafty foe and knows that it won't be over until the final flag is dropped.

He leaps over the top of Wicht and drives his hand down striking with a two finger punch.

The thorn devours the ruins; parries the blood of the honor as it flies atop the terror of the air!

That was fun

 

[Vanor]

good fight Wicht

It seems to me the two paths are fairly well balanced.

if anyone cares, here's my pregame wrapup

I found having more options, quite enjoyable, it added a new level to the game, trying to decide when to use what.

As well as trying to figure out what Wicht could do to counter what I wanted to do.

For example... Do I use mastery with fists of fury and try for a 3 point punch? Or do I split them up so I have more chances of a 2 point punch...

I think that at this level, and it's a fairly high level, 4 flag matches might be a good idea. Otherwise it's very possable for someone to win in the first round, with say a sig move/fists of fury, or posion blade.

On the other hand... I don't think either of us actualy managed to pull off a 2 point round, so a 4 flag match might go on forever...

All in all I like how the new honor path works, and it seems a good match against the Yakuza... at least from this one fight anyway

Any thoughts on your part Wicht? or anyone else for that matter?

 

[Wicht]

On the other hand... I don't think either of us actualy managed to pull off a 2 point round, so a 4 flag match might go on forever...

Well you did win on a 2 point punch but other than that I agree with you

I think 2 flags should be the norm for the lower levels and 3 flags for the upper levels.

 

[Vanor]

Heh that's true. For some reason I was thinking that I had 2 flags in my favor in that round.
