That sounds more like a strategy game than a rpg.

Good idea! Btw, why not just add more moves overall?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your current moves:
Melee:
Attack , Critical Strike , Flurry , Power Attack
Ranged:
Attack , Sniper Shot , Rapid Shot , Power Blast
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Suggestion moves:
Melee:
Spin Strike (you attack all the enemies attacking you together)
Diversion Slash (you miss and it lowers the enemies defence for 2 combat round by making him think you're weak)
Disarm Opponent (you can disarm your opponent)
Ranged:
Spread Blast (shoot an array of blaster bolts at many enemies)
Diversion Blast (you miss and it lowers the enemies defence for 2 combat round by making him think you're weak)
Disarm Opponent (you can disarm your opponent)

I want more villians with new and better powers. I also just want more general enemies to kill

Love this idea - it could prompt a dialogue moment where you either get to spare their life or kill them defencelessly.

Would we be talking about disarming in the standard sense of taking their weapon off of them, or disarming in the Obiwan sense of cutting their arm off, though?

[The joker200]

How would you disarm someone with a ranged attack?

[Lex.mkr]

Shooting the hand, perhaps?

[The joker200]

good point

In the standard sence of taking their weapon off of them for the ranged attack.

For the melee attack you can choose to either take their weapon off of them, or cut their hands off. (cutting hands is pretty normal in the Star Wars universe, even Kreia got her hand cut off)

What would happen to the weapon? It'd be destroyed or the player (assuming the enemy uses this attack) would be able to pick it back from the ground in some sort of "Remains" thing?

Disarming in the Obi-Wan sense would be great for those who feel like some wanton violence from time to time.

Everything is thought out. Weapons can be too valuable to simply be destroied, so that means that weapons can be picked up during battle, but your defence gets a -6 penalty when the enemy is attacking you while you're picking up your weapon. Same for the enemy.

Heh heh, that reminds me of that bit in Starship Troopers -
"Your opponent cannot press the button if you disable his hand!"

Anyway, it juist occurred to me that in most FPS Star Wars games this sort of thing is done already - if you have a powerful enough force pull in Jedi Academy or Outcast, you can pull the weapon out of the opponents hand and pocket the ammo/gun. Why not a similar thing in KOTOR?

It'd be a piece of cake to fight Kreia's floating lightsabers then.

Hmm. Pulling a gun with no finger on the trigger towards you is one thing. Pulling a lightsaber towards you at speed... well, I guess you'd have to be quite accurate with your force pull there.
