I used to be a mercenary, then I took a round to the knee. At which point I continued to be a mercenary and shot that motherfucker square in the face.

Thunderdome Round 2: Fight 2 - Potato v. Spanky

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen to The Thunderdome. Last we left off, a poor man was stabbed in the neck with scissors, setting new bar of brutality and entertainment! The ride only gets more wild from here folks!

Today we have our first seeded warrior Spanky versus the scrappy eighth seeded Potato. While Spanky may be first seed, this is only his first fight. Potato has already blooded himself in the arena against The Dwayne. Spanky has the talent, Potato has the experience. Who will win? Find out today!


THE WARRIORS AND THEIR WEAPONS








FIGHT!



Here we have our fighters in the bloodied and tried arena of the THUNDERDOME.

Potato advances 2 hexed forward, a cautious yet confident gait about him; while Spanky does the same.



Potato strikes, using the advantage of his long chain! Spanky, taken by surprise, parries while advancing!

code:

Potato makes Short Strike against Spanky! Spanky Parries!

Attack Level 5. Defensive Level 3. Parry column 9.

27% Chance to Hit, Rolled 7! HIT!

Potato HITS Spanky in the UPPER CHEST for 11 IMPACT. 

Spanky sustains 76 DAMAGE. Spanky rolls for knockout! 98% Chance of knockout, rolled 78. Spanky FAILS knockout roll. Spanky incapacitated for 1 minute, 34 seconds. 

Spanky: 95% chance of recovery after 25 days. Rolled 6. Will recover. 

Potato strikes deftly with his chain like a whip, and in a flash, a crack of thunder, its over! Potato's chain finds its mark square in Spanky's chest, sending Spanky tumbling! Spanky is out for the count and the fight is over!

Potato is victorious in mere seconds! What an upset folks!

BRACKETOLOGY

Potato advances to Round 3, where he will face Count von Count.



Next fight, Popete v. Snake Doctor

The unbelievable test of strength and speed yet continues! Who will be our leader? Who will prove their superiority by being the last man standing?

Spanky sustains 76 DAMAGE.

First, you've been looking at the wrong line; 11 Impact (Cutting) is 76 when it's to the Shoulder, not the Upper Chest. When it's to the Upper Chest, it's 400.

Luckily, whips only do Shallow damage. Whips have a PD multiplier of 1d6, and an ID of the wielder's Damage Bonus. So with your DB of about 2.25, it's 3 base damage multiplied by the roll of 5: 15 damage, not 76 or 400. And that's no over Spanky's KV of 15, so it's a mere 10% chance of knockout, and Spanky should have been standing and capable of retaliating. :goonsay:

Match rigged.

Edit: In order to avoid further corruption I suggest making the characters into dwarves and duelling it out in DF arena. There'll be none of this pussy knockout poo poo, at the end shall stand the champion, truly commander of himself, for the scum who bleed beneath his feet could not be worthy of the leadership of one blooded in the sight of Armok.

I was using a chain, not a whip, unless chain uses whip rules.

And I was just using the blunt damage table as provided in the hand-to-hand supplement because I am unsure of how the hand-to-hand rules interact with the advanced tables.

I rounded up most numbers.

The hand-to-hand combat rules are based on the crazy hyper realistic medieval melee combat game that started the whole affair, Sword's Path: Glory, and the Phoenix Command games were to a large degree intended as slot-in supplements for other games. Like Call of Cthulhu but wish it more correctly modelled the effects of .38 Special to the spleen at 40 yards? Use Phoenix Command Small Arms Combat System! So in addition to a bunch of pre-modern melee weapons that look like they're ripped from some early edition of AD&D, there's also a small selection of modern weapons including bottles, chairs, various knives, scissors, an icepick, a screwdriver, a whip, and two types of chainsaw, just in case your game of Mercenaries, Spies, & Private Eyes has an Indiana Jones ripoff in it.

I played rolemaster for like 20 years, that worked brilliantly as slot in rules to beef up other systems. I still think the combat and skills part has yet to be bettered. character making is kind of insane though.
