Information:

The character is trained in Modern Army Combatives, the modern military style of hand-to-hand combat that blends a number of fighting styles such as Muay Thai to provide a soldier with an all-round means of unarmed self-defense and defense with short weapons ([[Brawl Skill|Brawl]] and [[Weaponry Skill|Weaponry]] Skills). ===Tactician’s Sense (●)=== The character gauges the body language of combatants in his proximity. In game terms, he can make a Reflexive [[Pool::Wits]] + Composure perception roll and gauge the Initiative modes of all combatants before a fight starts. ===Atemi Attack (●●)=== {{MHR|This combat maneuver cannot bypass Mage Armor.}} The human body has a variety of pressure points, any of which can cause an opponent great pain. The trained fighter knows where to strike for maximum effect. When striking with a Brawl or Weaponry attack, the character may ignore up to 1 point of the enemy’s Armor protection per dot in this Fighting Style. ===Forearm Choke (●●●)=== The character applies pressure to an enemy’s carotid artery in an attempt to knock him out. The character must successfully achieve a Grapple attack<ref>see “Grapple”, the World of Darkness Rulebook, p. 157</ref>. The character may apply the choke hold from the following turn. The hostile may attempt to free himself on his next action with [[Pool::Strength]] + [[Pool::Brawl Skill|Brawl]], his dice pool penalized by the character’s [[Pool::Strength]] + 1. This maneuver is designed to render the foe unconscious. The foe may resist each turn at a cumulative –1 dice pool penalty. When your character has sustained the choke hold for a number of turns equal to the hostile’s Stamina, the hostile is rendered unconscious, and sustains a single point of bashing damage. The Forearm Choke is useless against creatures that do not need to breathe. ===Bullring (●●●●)=== The character is trained in fighting off multiple opponents simultaneously. His Defense is applied in full to each and every simultaneous hand-to-hand attack in a single turn. ===Lethal Strike (●●●●●)=== The soldier’s hands become deadly weapons when the character spends a Willpower point. A successful Brawl strike delivered in a turn in which he spends Willpower delivers lethal, rather than bashing, damage. '''Drawback:''' Because the lethal attack takes place in that turn, the character cannot spend Willpower to boost his attack dice pool. {{Links|Fighting Styles}}{{characteristics}}
