Techniques

Rank 1

 

When making a Full Attack, the Matsu bushi creates a Fear effect for all those who oppose her. The Fear rating is equal to her School Rank +1.

Rank 2

 

When making a Full Attack, the Matsu bushi may now make one additional attack per turn.

Rank 3

 

When making a Full Attack, the Rank 3 Matsu bushi rolls a number of initiative dice equal to her Honor.

Rank 4

 

The bushi may now make two attacks per turn. If the Matsu bushi is performing a Full Attack, then she can attack a total of three times per turn (see Rank 2 Technique).

Rank 5

 

If the Matsu bushi is making a Full Attack, she ignores action penalties she would suffer as a result of Wounds, up to her Honor Rank. Thus, if a Matsu with an Honor of 4 is making a Full Attack, she ignores the -1, -2, -3 and -4 Wound modifiers. This does not apply to the "Down," "Out," or "Dead," Wound Ranks.
