I.e, this (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/KnockbackSlide).
Yes, I've been reading threads about Knockback here and elsewhere; they haven't really helped yet with my plans.
My current thinking is to make it an early access Feat, possibly a Stance, possibly dependent on the default combat maneuvers Fight Defensively or Total Defense. Something along the lines of trading damage for distance when braced for it.
I'm doing it this way in order to allow for later Crew-specific feats to overcome it and exploit other possibilities, along with the usual good general reasons for everybody such as it's Canon, it's fun, and Mmmmm, GM Likey. It's a nice nose; it's rubber, I like it; it's chewy, I like it.
Normally I would write up something on my own but I am so epically stressed right now that even just that much original work is beyond me. I think there's an obvious niche for this and that other people will find value in it as well, so I'm asking for help even without providing as much of a basis as I'd like.
Thoughts?
