Yeah, I see the issue with the technical terms, I'll drop them in favor of the most accurate description I can think of. 

I'm sure I've made some mistakes in the posts. I'll re-read everything and address point by point. 



[quote]Maybe I made a mistake somewhere, I'll re-read my post, but I'm fairly certain Brennus moved forward on his dominant foot (right foot)[/quote]

You are correct, he moved with his right foot. In the previous post, however, his left foot was behind, due to the guard. 


[quote=in the first post]His left side faced his opponent while his right foot was back and turned[/quote]

An attack executed like that does what you wanted it to do: gives you extra reach. But it does take more time to complete than simply an attack. 


[quote]Also, you're going to take Brennus' head off with a wooden longsword? That's remarkable.[/quote]

not really, sorry. That was more the way Florian thinks, very dramatic and the like. 


[quote]You also just effortlessly parried a two handed attack with one hand[/quote]

This is my mistake as I didn't specify anywhere he was holding the sword in two hands. I also didn't specify he was holding it in one hand, though. I apologize. 

[quote]Read everything again, you also had your character step forward on his left hand side, in response to an attack to his left shoulder? Maybe it's just me, but that seems counter-intuitive to effectively parrying a strike that by all rights is going to be more effective than your defence.[/quote]

On the contrary, he's stepping into the attack to parry it and position himself in grappling range. 



I didn't mean to turn your words to my favor. I know that a similar attack is difficult to execute cautiously, because of the momentum the back foot offers, so I countered it with the most natural counter to it. There probably has been a misunderstanding on this front. I did read your post carefully and play out the movements before writing a response.
