Shoving People off a cliff?
Okay, I know that it takes a use of two to shove someone back 2 inches, but would that still apply if you were trying to shove them off a cliff?
I mean, it sounds a bit cheap if you ask me . . .

Why would that logically be harder? Wouldn't it be easier?
EDIT: I guess they could use their response to grab the edge, but then it's only a matter of having big boots to squish their fingers with.
EDIT EDIT: Also, not very many battles are played on cliffs.

Often, literally, a pillow fight but may include similar situations like volleyball, particularly when wardrobe is skimpy and the action is bouncy.
I think grabbing the edge just before you fall is a Heroic Feat. How many people do you see do that in the movies besides Heroes and Villians?Blitzen wrote:EDIT: I guess they could use their response to grab the edge, but then it's only a matter of having big boots to squish their fingers with.
It would just be a basic shove attempt and if it was against a Hero who had not already used his Heroic Feat he should be able to use it to try to catch himself.

Blitzen said it, rarely a battle takes place on/near a cliff.

I considered using it when I was doing that online battle on the train, and just shoving a stormtrooper off the edge. I figured explosives would work better though.

While blowing up multiple enemies is pretty darn fun, it also requires a pretty high skill and damage rating.
Shoving, on the other hand, only requires a skill role of 2.
Therefore, it is a bit "cheap" that you can possibly kill somebody just by rolling a single 2.
