Neither opponent can Dodge or Parry - one, because his hands are now empty, and the other because he All-Out Attacked.


Xanthia swings her blade, and nearly lops off the left arm of her assailant. He goes down, cluthing his wound and whimpering like a kicked dog. For his part, Dukar rushes the unarmed man - who tossed first a spear, then a grenade - landing a telling blow on him.

Penny focuses on the primary aspect of any police action: Capturing suspects. She puts her man in restraints, over his objections that he needs to keep pressure on the wound.

The last thug facing Xanthia is not happy with how things are turning out. He is the only one not wounded, his friends are mostly down, and he's looking at a 3v1 fight. Not liking those odds, he turns tail and runs, hard and fast, for the largest crowd he can find, trying to lose the fuzz.

He has to Run, rather than Disengage, to get anywhere meaningful. That means both Xanthia and Phil get free attacks at him as he runs off. If he does manage to run, chasing him may prove difficult - as he will do the standard trick of leaving a trail of fallen pedestrians and overturned chairs in his wake.
