It's fine, i just wasn't properly prepared for the level of detail that was needed as i am new to this whole beating up newbs thing. Also aplogizes for the constant revisions i have to make when it should be none, but i have modified it again, look better?

[Vordak]

As i said, we could ignore all the detail to a certain extent and let it be. This IS a combat roleplay after all, not a hard sci-fi writing club.

But if we should go with it, then i should mention that sound waves don't produce disortions in the air visible to the human eye, even at high freqencies and high energy yeild. Sol's sheath also wouldn't have the ability to bloack out the wave completely, as neither it is as large as Ido's palm, from which he launches the attack, nor does it have any properties that prevent the wave from travelling through it. It will absorb some energy, but not all. And finaly, a sound wave probably wouldn't knock down a person with its force - instead, the sound wave simply passes through the body, causing the tissue to rapidly vibrate, putting it under great stress and eventualy rupturing or cracking it.

Also, fastest reaction speed (in other words, the time that passes between seeing something and reacting to it) for huamns is approx. 100-150 milliseconds, while the average is 200-250. Comparing that to the time it takes sound to cover 7 meters, which is less than 25 milliseconds, it has to be aknowleged that Sol cannot do anything after it is launched.

Doing high-detail is once again fine with me it'll help me for other fights and stuff. Also attempted(once again) to make it better, wasn't sure how to describe the sound wave attack on meh hot bod but i tried. >.<

[Vordak]

Well, this post is fine. Though there are ways for you to not take the hit, if you think they'll force Sol out of his character, or simply decide to take the hit to not accidentialy cross the line, then i appreciate it.

Just don't forget about one thing - unless Claws goes heavy on the offensive side, Ido will be preparing the follow up attack i mentioned in my post.

[Eklispe]

yep i assumed that that would be mentioned in your next post

[Vordak]

Blooper, i'll be skipping you if you don't post soon. And you better do, since there's a giant drill heading for Claws right now. :/

[Skallagrim]

Just proceed. I am taking bloopers place in the post order. When/if Bloop comes back he can post ahead of me.

[Skallagrim]

Looks like things are heating up now....lol

[Vordak]

Bleh, did some awful writing on that post. Still got to learn a lot. :\

[Skallagrim]

It was a little convoluted, but we could discern what your actions are so it wasn't so bad.

[Skallagrim]

Vordak be careful, this post is very much modding your opponents attack. You can suggest that the blade should not make it through the rock, but you cannot definitely say that it didn’t make it through the rock.

However, perhaps unbeknowst to Sol, his sword wouldn't cut through the boulder in just one stroke. Adding sawblades, no matter how miniature, was a foolish decision: both creating great amounts of friction and jerking the blade around, they would rapidly dissapate all of the blade's kinetic energy and bring it to a screeching halt, leaving his weapon stuck.This could be a good opportunity to strike, but Ido had nowhere to hurry - the chances he would actualy hit Sol were too low to bother. Instead, he concentrated on increasing his supplies of Kzich, gathering all of it into one large sphere again.

It could be written this way
:
Sol’s attack of the rock was incredible, the sheer force of blade striking the rock created a horrible wail as the metal bit deep. Ido was curious, as the size and density of the rock should make a bisecting attack nearly impossible, however if the human was able to do so, because of the effort required to cut through the rock, Ido might have a chance to attack while the blade and human wielding it were in an awkward position.

[Vordak]

You do have a point here, but on the other hand, i do know approximately how fast Sol's strike would be, and thus how powerful it can become. I should've worded it diffrently indeed, but that doesn't make what i brought up in my post less of a valid point, does it? It was because the outcome of most attacks are goverened by physics that i wrote it in such a manner.

[Skallagrim]

You can never in a fight control another players actions. You can as I said 'suggest' the action might fail and why but never state that it cannot happen.

[Vordak]

Eklipse, I think i should have some handicap now, since you're fighting me alone, so feel free to pick any of Ido's magical abilities and equipment, and i'll refrain from using them during this fight. Just don't go making me fight bare-fisted, please. XD

Also, Tharraleos, once i'll finish this fight, i think i'll be able to fight you with tier 6 Ido if you don't have any challengers by then.

[Eklispe]

Eh i hate to feel i'm robbing you of anything, but i don't want to get beat too badly so i'll just limit you to two axes.

[Vordak]

You mean limit me to using only Axes, or using only two of the four i have? Im actualy fine with either, BTW.

[Eklispe]

two of the four you have

[Skallagrim]

Best of luck Eklispe, but I think it is much more fair just the two of you. With my range and your melee ability Vordy was in a tough pickle.

[Vordak]

Eklipse, right now, your post is missing a lot of detail: where Sol is striking, at what distance from Ido does he start to descend, in what pose does he land? Please elaborate.

[Eklispe]

I have attempted to rectify my mistakes
