Can one get by with, effectively, Power Blow applied to any ST based activities for a lot of the force-powered stuff? Certainly the jumping can be done that way. Landing. . .not so much, since that tends to be HT-based. Move is based on DX and HT, rather than ST, so the really fast stuff doesn't work with Power Blow there.

"Can be"? Maybe, but not well. Assume ST averages about 2x Move. Triple ST and then divide by 4 as per the alternate rule about Jumping and you've only increased your Jump distance by about 1.5x.

Hi Fred,

I'm pretty sure he was referring to using Flying Leap.
