I know what you mean Kromm, but I'm afraid your wording is misleading. I remember you listing several relevant benefits of having Brawling at DX compared to just using your DX with no Brawling. IIRC they were more relevant in an actual tavern brawl than in a formal duel on an infinite flat hexagon. E.g. a parry with each hand does not seem to be covered by techniques - it's just the way Brawling Parries.
