Technique
Melee

You put extra force behind your strike to knock an enemy down.

For 2 Action Points, make a melee attack against a creature within reach. On a hit, the target must make a Fortitude Save against a DC of 10 + half the damage it actually took (after Soak and Resistances). On a failed save, the target falls Prone.

Critical Failure: The target must spend 1 Action Point to stand up, in addition to using half its Speed.

Push: You may take 1 Strain to use this technique for 1 Action Point instead of 2.
