@Loco @Wit @Cazar

The hit in the abdomen was prior from the previous attack, as there was a force push that came after it which Grug did fly off to a distance out of melee range. The saber pull was abandoned at that moment, so the second force push occurred after the saber lock.

As for positioning, my intention was to write it as after the saber lock is initiated, Decimus pivots on his left foot so that the right side of his torso is rotated to an angle on Grug's right body. Hence the Choppa coming in from the left arm would be at the distal end of its range or outside of it.

The interrupt can be plausible, if Grug is intending to use it as an interrupt with a second charge. I just didn't read it that way, I understood it as he absorbed the Force Push but nothing really happened to him and continued an attack. If that was not the intention and I'm misinterpreting it, then let me know @Cazar.

Edit: Granted, this is all moot if Malon is gona blow my ass up in the next post anyways. But, in case it gets to a defense, I wanted all this to be clarified prior.

We aren't saying you can't do the Force push, we're saying you can't claim to have been gathering the Force to build up to that push. Once you made the earlier uses of the Force, you were still summoning the blade to you after that attack, that Force gathering ended. So this Force push would have the power of a normal push put together on short notice, and won't be the more powerful push that it might have been if you had gathered the Force for a post or two before unleashing it.

Yeah, we see that the Force push is occurring after the saber lock, which is where Grugs interrupt attempt to prevent the push comes in. Next, while pivoting/angling your body might change where he might be able to hit you, if you're maintaining the saber lock then you're still in range, especially if hes charging forward, as I mentioned in the last post.

In any case, you'd get a chance to defend against the interrupt attempt in your next post.

Edit: partially ninjad.

It's an interrupt, not absorbing it. ^-^

Your defense was to block my weapons and layer beneath my weapons and then doing a push. I countered by making my charge continue without delay so when the weapons clash, he was already moving closer and the swing is coming in hot by the time you get ready to push.
