response [UMA]

[h-leqin]

Dear Steve,

 

again related to the UMA:

„Response: This Restrictive Element is applied to maneuvers which can only follow a specific maneuver used by one’s opponent“ quote from UMA (p115)

now the question is:

 

is it sufficient for the response, that the opponent starts the maneuver, or has he to complete the maneuver?

 

The idea is to design a maneuver seen in some bruce lee and jet li movies to hit the opponent just before they hit...

"Response" means the manuever has to be completed (not necessarily successfully, but still completed).

 

There are lots of ways to build what you're describing. I'd suggest a post in the Discussion area to hash out the topic.
