STREET FIGHTER ALPHA IN THE STREET FIGHTER RPG

Chapter Two A: Supers

By Chris Hoffmann

Super Meter

There are three levels of super meter, each of which must be bought separately. They can not be bought with freebie points, only experience points. Each Level Costs ten times the level being purchased (ie. 10, 20, and 30).

Each level of Super Meter has 10 dots in them. When these dots are filled, you can spend 10 (or more) dots to power a super move or an alpha counter. The levels can be filled in three ways. Per point of damage you inflict on your opponent, one dot is filled. Per point of Chi or Willpower spent, 1 dot is filled. And per 3 points of damage done to you by your opponent (round-down), one dot is filled.

Example: Ken throws a fireball (Damage 11) at a Blocking Zangief (Soak 12). Ken inflicts 1 point of damage. This powers up his Bar by two points (one from the damage and one from the chi used). Zangief doesn't add anything to his bar (1/3 is .333 rounded down to 0). Zangief is now upset at Ken (he gets upset easily) and tells him so with a turbo spinning clothesline (Speed 5). Ken is throwing another fireball (speed 3). Zangief walks through the fireball and knocks Ken into next Thursday with 6 damage. A now dizzy Ken adds 3 points to his super meter (1 from the chi used on the fireball and 6/3 is 2) while Zangief adds 7 to his meter (1 for the willpower used on the Turbo Spinning Clothesline and 6 from the damage done to Ken).

The Super bar remains filled for one hour or until used (which ever comes first).

Super Maneuvers

Super Maneuvers are highly damaging maneuvers that do no cost chi or willpower to use, thus making them the ultimate comeback Maneuvers. The Damage does not usually come from a huge damage modifier. It instead comes from many smaller hits. A Super Maneuver may not be part of a dizzy combo but may be part of a normal one. Unless otherwise stated, the hits from a super are soaked individually and do not combined for a dizzy. All Supers Require at least Level 1 Super Bar to learn unless stated otherwise. Make no mistake, when wielded by a World Warrior level Fighter, these moves can easily take off ten or more health from Zangief. For obvious reasons, Super Maneuvers tend to be Blocked.

A Variable Maneuver means that you can use one, two, or three levels of Super Bar to power them. Unless otherwise stated, all Super Maneuvers are Variable.

Punch

Crossfire Blitz

Prerequisites: Punch 5, Kick 4, Focus 2, Spinning Backfist, Power Uppercut
Power Points: Special Forces 5, Any 6

Description: The fighter launches himself forward with a kick, Turns into a Spinning Backfist, and ends with a Power Uppercut.

System: Similar to the Thousand Burst Kick, the different levels of Super Meter used determine how this move is executed. With Level One, the fighter kicks forward using the first move modifier and kick technique instead of punch technique. With the second level of super meter he uses his momentum to turn and do a Spinning Backfist, switching back to punch technique and using the second move modifier to move forward while doing so. Finally, with level three, the fighter executes a Power Uppercut, knocking down Aerial Opponents and using the third move modifier to continue forward. Each of these attacks hit three times and knocks the opponent back one hex.

Cost: Variable Super Bar

Damage: -3
Move: -1/Two/One

Dragon God Fist (Shinryuken)

Prerequisites: Punch 5, Focus 4, Flaming Dragon Punch
Power Points: Shotokan Karate 5

Description: The fighter jumps straight in the air with a powerful dragon punch

System: The fighter hits an opponent three times the level of super meter used. In addition, if a level two or three is being done, you get additional hits equal to half your punch technique (round up). This maneuver causes a knockdown and can dodge fireballs.

Jaguar Varied Assault

Prerequisites: Punch 5, Kick 4, Focus 2, Elbow Strike, Jump, Tiger Kick

Description: The Muay Thai fighter rushes forward, ramming his elbows into his opponent multiple times. At the highest levels, the fighter ends with a flurry of hand strikes resembling the hundred hand slap or with a powerful Tiger Knee.

System: The fighter hits three times per level of super used. The first level of the maneuver uses the first move modifier, then goes to the second and finally the third. At level three, the last three hits may be computed with the kick technique if the fighter so wishes. If this option is taken, then the move is considered to be aerial.

Move: +0/One/One

The Birdie

Prerequisites: Punch 5, Athletics 4, Bull Head

Violent Rising Dragon Wave (Shoryu Reppa)

Prerequisites: Punch 5, Flaming Dragon Punch
Power Points: Shotokan Karate 5

If a level three is used, the second dragon punch does 4 hits, but there is a third dragon punch that does two hits. This maneuver knocks down Aerial opponents. The second and third dragon punches use the second move modifier.

Description: The fighter spins much faster than a normal hurricane kick, actually creating a vacuum that sucks his opponents in.

System: This is an Aerial Maneuver. When the fighter attacks with this move, all opponents within a radius equal to the level of super bar plus 1 are pulled in. The maneuver pulls the opponents closer one hex (stopping when they are in the same hex as the attacker) and then attacks three times. This is done once for each level of super bar used.

Cost: Variable Super Bar
Speed: +0
Damage: -2
Move: None

Thousand Burst Kick (Senretsu Kyaku)

Prerequisites: Kick 5, Focus 3, Great Wall of China
Power Points: Wu Shu 6

Description: The Fighter jumps forward with a kick, then spins forward with a Great Wall of China, making this Maneuver very useful against multiple opponents.

System: This Maneuver is distinctly different for each level of Super Bar used. The First Level of the Super Meter allows you to perform the 'normal' kick that hits three times. The second level allows you to add together the two movement modifiers and perform The Great Wall of China which hits six times in three connected adjacent hexes. The third level allows you to do a move similar to the Double Dread Kick in that it hits, then moves and hits again. The first move modifier is used for the 'normal' kick and then after the first kick, you move using the second move modifier and perform The Great Wall of China. The First Kick hits three times and the Great Wall of China hits 6 times in three connected adjacent hexes. Each of these attacks knock the opponent back one hex.

System: The move hits once per the level of super meter used. The third (if there is a third) hit's damage is calculated with the punch technique, not the grab technique. The opponent lands in a hex adjacent to the thrower. Like all grab maneuvers, this maneuver is unblockable.

Cost: Variable Super Bar
Speed: -1
Damage: -1
Move: Two

Omega Slam (Tenchuusatsu)

Prerequisites: Grab 5, Athletics 4, Focus 3, Jitte 4, Jump, Throw, Butsumetsu Buster, Daikyo Burning

Power Points: Ni-Jihan Desu 5

System: The move hits twice for levels one and two, and three times for level 3. For the second and third levels, all hits except the first do extra damage due to filling the opponent in a similar manner to Daikyo Burning. After the super, the opponent lands in a hex adjacent to the thrower and suffers a knockdown. Like all grab maneuvers, this maneuver is unblockable.

Prerequisites: Focus 5, Block 3, Fireball
Power Points: Wu Shu 5, Kung Fu 6

Description: The warrior's chi explodes in front of her outstretched hands, hitting everyone within a certain range with a cone of pure chi. This creates a shield that repels almost all attacks against her

System: At the first level, the fighter only hits her opponents that are in the same hex as her. At the second level it also hits two adjacent hexes in front of the warrior. At the third level, the fighter hits the three adjacent hexes that are adjacent to the three hexes. The pattern looks like this, going from left to right.

Repeating Fireball

Prerequisites: Focus 5, Fireball
Power Points: Any 6

Description: The fighter throws out a number of projectiles at once. The fireballs are overlapped when they are in the air, giving the illusion of one large fireball. When they hit, they explode and hit anyone in the same hex (except for possibly the thrower).

System: The Number of Fireballs thrown is equal to three times the level of Super Meter Used. If a fighter jumps, he will avoid a number of fireballs equal to the number of successes on the roll. When the Fireballs hit a target, they detonate and hit anyone in the same hex as the target (except for the fighter launching them). The Fireballs can not be aimed at multiple targets.

Cost: Variable Super Bar

Sonic Break

Prerequisites: Focus 5, Sonic Boom, The Power (Sound)
Power Points: Any 6

Description: The fighter throws out a number of Sonic Booms at once. When they hit, they explode and hit anyone in the same hex (except for possibly the thrower).

System: The Number of Sonic Booms thrown is equal to the level of Super Meter used plus 1. If a fighter jumps and makes his dodge roll, he will avoid half of the Sonic Booms (round up) but the rest will hit him unless they use a wall spring. When the Sonic Booms hit a target, they detonate and hit anyone in the same hex as the target (except for the fighter launching them). The Sonic Booms can not be aimed at multiple hexes.

Cost: Variable Super Bar
Speed: +1

Weapon:

Jitte

Super Rushing Jigoku (Meido no Miyage)

Prerequisites: Jitte 5, Focus 3, Jump, Jigoku Scrape, Uppercut, Power Stab
Power Points: Ni-Jihan Desu 5

Description: The Warrior walks forward, slashing and thrusting with his Jitte, finally jumping up and slamming the Jitte into his opponent. While this move is relatively slow and easy to avoid, it is hard hitting, causing massive damage to an opponent, especially to a dizzy opponent.

System: Similar to the Thousand Burst Kick and Crossfire Blitz, the different levels of Super Meter used determine how this move is executed. With Level One, the fighter slashes horizontally using the first move modifier. With the second level of super meter he uses his momentum to do a powerful Uppercut, using the second move modifier to move forward while doing so. Finally, with level three, the fighter leaps up and slams his Jitte into his foe, knocking down Aerial opponents and using the third move modifier to continue forward. Each of these attacks hit three times except the last which hits once and knocks the opponent back one hex.

Cost: Variable Super Bar
