Take my hand if you want to kick butt

[SAW]

I'm wondering how you folks would go about simulating the martial arts staple of two people fighting together, clasping hands and swinging/whipping each other into bad guys for extra velocity/damage?

 

Naturally this would require a teamwork roll, but I was thinking of adding 1/2 the "thrower's" STR to the damage of the "throwee's" attack.

 

So, what ya think?

Fighting array that adds to the combatant's dex only for CV and to the str only for damage. The rest is just sfx.

Most of the time it's just the Teamwork skill in action. You can also use the Fastball Special rule for some tricks, or buy extra STR only-when-fighting-in-an-array.

Any number of things that can apply, and players can pick and choose from them in my games, or just buy it as a special maneuver if they want to be good at it.

 

The default for me is a limited version of the "fastball special" where one character throws another, and the one being thrown gets to add the velocity of the throw to his damage.

Dude....

I am SO sorry, but I've gotta rep you for that.

No hard feelings?

Take my negative rep if you want to kick butt

 

No hard feelings. I am almost in the green.

 

I must give half the credit to Markdoc and his New System for Martial Arts.

Without trying to compete with CourtFool's excellent multipower, you can just buy (UBO simultaneously) for two characters' strength and dex, limited so that they have to be within 1 hex of each other and only applying to each other. Quite cheap, quite devastating: double your effective STR and DEX when fighting together. Nasty.

DAMN! I'd send rep, but you are apparently too deserving.

That could get ugly fast! Balance issues asside (damn, I should have my entire hero team rewrite there characters with this... ), I'm not sure if this would accurately describe the ability. The skill to "fling your partner round 'n round" usually lies in the fliger, not the flingee.
