Kicking in High Heels
Would you allow a Technique to change cr damage to pi (+?) if done with a shoe with stiletto heels? You'd have to kick at a strange angle - some kind of horizontal stomp, but could it be done?

Re: Kicking in High Heels
There's also Cowpoker perk in Action 3: "You can kick with pointy-toed boots (use the reinforced boots on p. 31 of Heroes) for thrust-1 piercing damage, plus unarmed skill bonuses."

Re: Kicking in High Heels
Sorry for the drive by post, but someone did do a "GURPS High Heels" page which might be relevant. But I think it is 3E.
(Haven't read the thread or the page really.) |

Re: Kicking in High Heels
All 3 forms of piercing (small/medium/large) do a minimum of 1 damage right? This seems like a really good option for low-ST guys who might often do 0 damage.

Re: Kicking in High Heels
Sorry for assisting in the Necromancy, but this does exist in Power-Ups 2. It's "High-Heeled Hurt," and is on page 7.

Re: Kicking in High Heels
Note incidentally that this is really a cinematic switch perk. It would be perfectly acceptable to have a comic book setting where "high-heels are no impediment to a woman's ability to fight and move" is simply one of the cinematic rules.

Re: Kicking in High Heels
Actually, "High-Heeled Hurt" is different than "High-Heeled Heroine", which is what I suspect you're thinking of. High-Heeled Heroine lets you move about in high heels without any issues, and I agree that in a suitably cinematic universe, it's not necessary. High-Heeled Hurt, however, lets you do piercing damage with kicks in high heels, and I'd probably not make it a universal setting thing - I can't really think of any setting where people wearing high heels are just automatically assumed to be more dangerous when kicking.
