The Escalate function doesn't work at all. Tried twice and it wouldn't allow me to.
Comes up unauthorised

Only the challenged person can escalate.

Also, you can't escalate a disarm match as that is a full contact, live weapon match.

Death matches are disabled. You have to get a judge to allow them... or right now... just me.

Note that the combat app has some stuff in it for future use. All the stuff in the bio about other kinds of weapons for instance. Right now, its focused on betleH combat. Later, it will allow other types and your bonuses will be affected by the Klingon culture stuff for betleH fighting or by human culture stuff for a katana and so forth. But that stuff is in development.

What is true now is that damage is not always equal. The K'Hare/T'shir match is an example. Both have vulcanoid blood (though K'Hare wont talk about it) so they get a damage bonus as well as different hits do different amounts of damge. This made that match very quick, so K'Hare won, even though he didn't hit as much.

Here is the thread that talks about the app as it was developed.

Note that early messages in that thread are out of date. For instance, the early version didn't have escalation.
