Yet more L5R stuff
Special Attacks
Called Shot: you may may called shots, but at a penalty. Roll two fewer dice for attacks to arms and legs, four fewer for an attack to the eyes, etc.
Disarm: Roll three fewer dice. If you hit, you deal no damage. If you roll raises equal to your STR - opponent's STR, they drop their weapon.
(A common tactic is to use Full Attack for a disarm attempt. In "The Book of Five Rings," Miyamoto Musashi called this "The Red Leaves Cut.")
Multiple Attacks: If you want to attack more than one target, you roll one less die for every target you're attacking. If you're attacking three targets, roll three fewer dice. This is all-or-nothing. If you miss any of them, you miss them all. If you're using a "paired" weapon, you lose one less die.
