Re: [MA: TG] Preventing Movement with Telekinesis
I guess if it was permissible to allow CP to reduce DX into the negative that getting someone to -6 DX would mean that even if using +8 to hit (all-out determined telegraphic) that their effective skill being merely 2 (below the 3 minimum to do attacks) would prevent attempts altogether?

Although Grip ST is an odd term to use there (I'd prefer Trained ST) since they might be using things other than hands to break free, such as head-only break free, leg-based break free, bucking bronco... or the ephemeral torso-only No Manipulators wriggle attack which I'm not sure made it from MA>TG The complication here is that the Pickup technique uses Trained HT and I don't think the Telekinesis power has HT? Plus even if it did, failures are supposed to cause thrust crushing to your HP, which TK also doesn't have. For simplicity's sake, for these purposes only, am tempted to handwave TK having HT+HP equal to it's power level (same as ST) |
