You forgot "+ Critical Strike from Behind" if you want that Attack from Behind to mean much other than the target isn't likely to defend against it.

Whoops. That's what I meant. The worst part is that actually happened in one of our games.

I was in a game with Crit from Behind and managed to drop three guards in a row with single-shot "backstabs."

Tamshiwara with Leaping Power Punch, backed by 30 points of Body Chi divided between PS and PP: base PS was 29. Critical on 18, 19, or 20: rolled 19.

GM rolled random hit location: center of the face.

back in the day,

tamishiwara requires a higher roll than a called shot anyways, might as well call it...

considering you "break the target's chi" to shatter the item (IIRC the fluff correctly),
back when i was gaming regular, we deemed that a tamishiwara hit was instadeath for anything that targeted a human for the kill (head, spine, etc...)

thus Dog Boxing became incredibly powerful -
Vanishing + Evasion + Tamishiwara = game over man, game over.
I believe Socrates said it best at, "I drank what?"

"JESUS SAVES! The rest of you take full damage."

They call me Hadoken 'cause I'm down-right fierce.

Had an NPC get killed due to a kick to the "nether regions".
