Example combat with heavy declaration use
« on: December 08, 2010, 08:19:32 PM »
Hi Everyone,

I remember reading a post about a gunfight in a dark warehouse demonstrating how a declaration every exchange can really enhance combat and make it much more exciting and flavorful. Now I can't find it with Google. Does anyone have the link?

I haven't updated it in a while, but I think the combat link to Rick Neal's page I have in my most recent blogpost is what you're looking for.

No, I remember reading somewhere an example combat between 1 PC and 1 NPC in a dark warehouse, where the PC attempted a declaration every exchange. They were simple and believable things like alertness for muzzle flashes to figure out the other location, athletics to declare crates that needed to be maneuvered around, etc.

Edit: No, it wasn't this one. My apologies. I remember the one you are talking about, though.

That echoes on like it’s carpet-bombing feverish white jungles of thought
That I’m positive are not even mine"
