Why not diving claw: automatically breaks armor. Or just dive: go prone without causing a turnover.

ok, but now I think of the fluff.

DIVING DODGE

Make an agility roll (at -2) to move out of a tackle zone. (eg, a 5+ for elfs, 6+ for normal mens).

If you pass the roll, you lie prone (no injury roll) in the square you moved to. In addition, you roll around clutching your knee/head/testicles screaming as if you were shot by a sniper (or as if your new Ferrarri had been keyed by a jealous YTS trainee). The player you dodged away from is then sent off by the ref for VIOLENCE.

If you fail the roll, you lie prone in the square you moved to. In addition, you roll around clutching your knee/head/testicles screaming as if you were shot my a sniper (or as if you new Ferrarri had been keyed by a jealous YTS trainee). The player you dodged away laughs at you. So do the fans and cheerleaders. The ref then comes over and kicks you in the bollocks for being a girl and trying to cheat. To the KO box with you.

Diving Dodge is the way Soccer players fake injuries.
Posted by NerdBird on 2015-11-23 01:05:55
So every soccer player would start with this skill?

Diving Dodge:

When the player with this skill is blocked or blitzed, the player has the option to throw himself to one empty square (no dodge roll required) and become prone.

Furthermore, the blocking/blitzing player is denied a chance to block or stab the player.

As a final benefit, the player using diving dodge may make a foul (per regular fouling rules) against any adjacent prone opponent, as the player throws an elbow-drop as he lands, however; if the diving dodge player manages to cause a ko or an injury, he is automatically caught by the ref, due to the blatant nature of the flying foul.

(Diving Dodge is a Strength Skill)

Hmmm, so he's flying through the air and actually throwing an elbow... Does this stack with mighty blow?
Posted by pythrr on 2015-11-23 02:51:57
Can I use both DP and PO on that foul?
Posted by keggiemckill on 2015-11-23 03:04:03
Sounds like a Macho Man skill. Flying elbow off the top ropes. I can't buy it.
Posted by BillBrasky on 2015-11-23 03:42:56
No mb, but dp would work, as regular fouling rules apply.

How about a roll skill where a prone player could roll onto an adjacent players foot making them roll 2 six sided dice to avoid being banned like normal fouling rules.

maybe that should be the sneaky git skill.
