Is that a grenade launcher I see attached?  I got to play with an m-16, 9mil and shotgun.

'Tis the M203 Grenade Launcher, yes. I also got to play with heavy machine guns and SHOULDER FIRED MISSILES, but back to the subject at hand... 99% of my hits are Sun Djem, Cho Mai, Cho Mok, or Shiim. I'm particularly notorious as a knuckle duster and strangely enough, for hitting a saber on the battery side rather than the blade side, a hit which in universe would hack off the power cell. I love that shot, particularly when I nail it in a manner that causes no injury to my opponent. The intact disarm is the closest thing to perfection I can think of in a fight.

Ooorah to all my Devil Dog brothers a slightly late Happy 236th. Happy Veterans day to everyone, and as far as my favorite marks of contact. Despite my slight reputation as a rough and tumble type. My favorite marks of contact are Sun Djem, Cho Mai, Cho Mak, and Mou Kei. I often use Shiim as well, it's good for that quick disable, and it works really well with the 3/4'' blades.

A little bit of motivation for the day.

240 Bravo, the only difference is a hydraulic self cleaning buffer system, and only one setting for the gas plug. Other than that it's pretty much the same gun. Anyways, my favorite machine gun. Perfect for turret use, and still light enough you can run with her on the ground too.

and I agree happiness is a belt fed weapon!

Being a Makashi guy I like some precise disabling shots... also there's the fact that I'm afraid to hurt my friends when I'm sparring with them.  These things make me end up using a lot of Cho Mai and Mou Kei.

I Should Probably Show A Tad More Restraint While Dueling My Friends...

Seriously... I Nearly Broke The Ribs of One of My Old Friends... In The Saber Group I Used To Run Several Years... Woops  Undecided...  (Wasn't Angry With Him or Anything... I Just Tend To Be Really Aggressive While Dueling...)

If I'm about to kill them, I think they're a little late for the redemption thing  Wink The nickname the local 'council' gave me was not 'Redeemer of Baddies,' it was 'Sword of the Jedi.'  Pardon me for assuming that the sword is not dull Wink

Dark Side points for trying  Wink Back on the subject of killing Sithies.... What else can be done with them? You can't just tie them up (they'd get you in the process or escape easily afterwards).

Isn't there always something that can be done? Heck, there has to be some kind of neural restraint in the Star Wars universe that can be used to transport dangerous cargo like Force users, right? I always like to do as little damage as I can, both as the Jedi thing to do and the fact that it displays more skill as a duelist to take only what you need and come away unharmed.

Ysalamiri + shock cuffs.  That'll keep the Sithies tied down.

And yeah, they did come up with a neural shock cuff that delivered a zap whenever the Force-user reaches out with the Force, disrupting their connection to the Force for a brief moment and leaving them unconscious.

Like that would have worked against Sidious.... Or Caedus.... Or Maul.... But I guess it could work if you could stun them first; use Vergere's method of making oneself's force presence invisible and then use a stun blaster.

Shiim is considered an intentionally placed wound, as I understand it. Tyrannus takes Kenobi out of commission with Shiim wounds to the leg in AOTC (much as it pains me to site from prequels...though the Clone Wars series is electric). So it seems Shiim is designed to get your opponent's attention at best (the slightest grazing mark) and to cripple at worst (as above, without severing anything).

Not sure killing marks can be considered Shiim (as on Mustafar); not if keeping the opponent alive is the intent behind such a mark.

...there may be some "grey area" here.

Wonderful Topic Master Jammo Wink!!!

I Don't Understand What Purpose Shiim Has, Short of Pure Torture...
