	* '''Pound''': Pounding someone in a grapple is a great way to inflict damage. This may involve mounting someone and whaling on them, slamming their face into nearby hard objects, breaking joints, or other methods of causing pain.		* '''Pound''': Pounding someone in a grapple is a great way to inflict damage.

			* '''Throw''': Throwing someone requires sufficient strength to toss them. Throws can be used to launch unfortunate victims into dangerous objects, or simply send someone somewhere else. Skilled characters may throw their grappled opponents into other characters as well, which deals full damage to both targets. Unlike other attacks against a grappled foe, throws do not halve enemy soak. The damage of a throw is for a throw into a hard object like a rock or the ground. Throwing a character into something soft changes its damage to Stun, while throwing them into something edged (spikes, an industrial grinder), damage is lethal. Throwing someone off a cliff does standard fall damage instead.
			: Difficulty +2 (if aimed at a small target such as another person or a spike), Damage Strength + 4B.

	* '''Choke''': Targets which require breathing or blood circulation can be disabled while grappled by cutting off blood flow and breath. Choking a target is far less effective if they do not require oxygen circulation (i.e. they have Dispersed Organs). In that case, one must suffocate them, and they only start taking damage when they can no longer hold their breath.		* '''Choke''': Targets which require breathing or blood circulation can be disabled while grappled by cutting off blood flow and breath.

	Hard martial arts rely on raw power, physical brutality, and vicious speed to deal devastating blows against foes. Examples are Karate, Kung Fu, Krav Maga, Commando Sambo, LINE, MCMAP, and other alphabet soup military martial arts forms. These tend to be based on the simple principle of hitting someone very hard very often until they stop fighting back.

	: Fists and feet are generally poor ways of inflicting damage on people and this optional rule allows this to reflect that.

This means that beating someone unconscious is still possible but they'll tend to recover after the scene no worse for wear.
