    Prep Time and SBA

    So, after a little bit of discussion with other users and talking about specific matches, I have a very important question. Where does prep time fall in the bounds of SBA? Specifically, the stating location. As most people know, the standard starting location would be Central Park in New York...

    Let's Talk About Speed Equalized Again

    Ok, so there has been a rule for some time now that says speed amping for a character in a speed equalized match is not allowed if they are the normally slower character and they speed blitz via the speed amp. I find that there is a fault in this logic, as speed equalizing a match in the first...

    Standard Battle Assumption Revision

    On the SBA page, a current rule is that neither character should have any prior knowledge of the other under any circumstances. However, this rule is unnecessary for a few reasons. First of all, there would be no reason to assume that fighters suddenly have knowledge outside of their normal...

    Question about SBA and weaknesses

    I'm currently making a file for a character who uses a drug to get a bunch of powers. (If anyone's curious about the specifics, it's the final boss in Katana ZERO.) By the time you fight her, she's not had the drug for several days and is suffering the rather severe withdrawal symptoms of it...

    Slight SBA change

    State of mind: In character, but willing to kill. It's not something very big, but instead of "willing to kill", it'd be more like "willing to win" according to the victory conditions. Victory Conditions: Killing the opponent, removing the opponent from the battlefield for at least one week...

    Is sight allowed in Standard Battle Assumptions?

    I have a question. Does SBA ensure that the characters can actually see each-other? Example, if we have 2 people who have more than 4km range therefore making the match start at 4km range via SBA. My question is, at this distance (4km) are the characters in each-other's line of sight (can they...

  26. The_real_cal_howard

    Changing SBA starting distance

    Recently it dawned on me. The SBA range of 4 kilometers is asinine. It doesn't matter the range of the two opponents, no fight starts that far. You don't know who you're fighting. Can you see 20 city blocks from your house, for example? Starting distance should be 20 feet from each other.

    Additions to the SBA

    Just made a fight the made me realize that there are certain things we haven't clarified in the SBA, that seem kinda obvious but should still be clarfied. 1. Characters don't give up on their own. I think it is pretty clear we assume that. Like, a character we put in a battle wouldn't just go...

    Yeah. This has been something I've occasionally thought about, but, it has come up here so I might as well get it done. You saw the title, basically, here's what I suggest adding to Standard Battle Assumptions, probably under distance: Knowledge of the battle situation: The characters know...

    Why is surviving yet being knocked out by something a basis for durability scaling?
