Proposal: Dodging Failure
timed out, final vote 1-7—Yoda

Add the following text to the end of the list of combat effects in rule 2.6 “Duels”:
* If one Clansman dodges and the other Clansman either punches, kickes, or grabs, then roll a DICEX, where X is the sum of the dodging Clansman’s Strength, Skill, and Reflex. If the result of the roll is strictly less than the other Clansman’s lowest stat (of Strength, Skill, and Reflex), then the dodging Clansman takes Damage.
If more than half of all comments containing counted FOR votes also contain the text “pvavorivnv a eiqpw eif ojrgpaesjefo” or “More risk, more return.”, then replace “the dodging Clansman takes Damage.” in the rule “Duels” with “the dodging Clansman takes Crushing Damage. However, if the result of the roll is strictly greater than the other Clansman’s highest stat (of Strength, Skill, and Reflex), then the non-dodging Clansman takes Damage.”
. Needs some kind of stat asymmetry, perhaps based on the attacking Clansman’s Skill on a Grab and Reflex on a Punch/Kick rather than just the lowest stat.
Yoda:
This also fixes the problem where a Clansman with a higher health can enter a 10 or 12 round duel and just dodge the entire time and win.
