Knee Drop

Hard

Defaults: Brawling-3 or Wrestling-4.
Prerequisite: Brawling or Wrestling; cannot exceed pre-
requisite skill.
This brutal attack involves dropping your entire weight
onto your foe knee-first. It’s normally executed from a stand-
ing posture by driving your knee into your adversary and
landing on top of him. You can only use it against an oppo-

down. Knee Drop is a special option for Committed Attack
or All-Out Attack. Use these rules instead of the usual ones
for those maneuvers.
Roll against Knee Drop to hit. Your victim may dodge or
block, or parry at -2. If he parries, your body counts as a
weapon with weight equal to your ST; see Parrying Heavy

As a Committed Attack, Knee Drop inflicts thrust+2,
or thrust at +1 per die if better. Brawling adds its usual
