No default for Brawling?
Why does Brawling have no default? How do you model an attack by someone who has no fighting skills?

Attack at skill DX+0. Normal punching damage. No Brawling damage bonus.

Re: No default for Brawling?
Ah, okay. That sounds reasonable. Thank you. Can anyone point to where that is specified in the text?

Re: No default for Brawling?
For details, see Unarmed Combat (p. B370) and particularly Striking, which refers you to p. B271 for stats. You use Brawling when you want to be able to strike at better than DX, get a damage bonus, and/or take advantage of such techniques as Elbow Strike and Knee Strike. Otherwise, you use DX (or DX-2 for a kick).

Re: No default for Brawling?
Is it also fair to say that having Brawl gives you an unarmed Parry, where as just using DX gives no Parry capability?
Thanks Dan |
