The Crossroads Inn
Dozens of lanterns hang from the carved wooden columns that support the
weight of the inn overhead, giving the surrounding area an inviting glow of
comfort. The ceiling overhead has been carved with images of the various
races of Pyrathia and then painted to give them an almost life-like
appearance. The floor below is hardly visible beneath the scattering of
sawdust, but seems to be made of a red marble swirled with white. Heavy
wooden tables and chairs are scattered liberally around the Inn, leaving
plenty of room for people to sit.
Some broken furniture lies piled off to one side. A silver-bound door
set between two stained-glass windows allows access to the outside. Set
just next to the door is a large sign written in six different languages.
Obvious exits: n e(closed) w nw
A breastplate made of scale was dropped here.
A warskirt made of scale lies here.
A vest made of scale lies here.
A small fountain is here.
An elegant gold-trimmed community forum is here, posting local news.
Cadmei is lying here stunned.
Malkis is here.
A rosy-cheeked female gnome is standing here in dull yellow robes.
A curvaceous female human is here taking orders from patrons.
A hired-hand, an enormous giant, stands here next to the door.
A heavy imperial warhorse stands here, chaffing impatiently at the bit.
Brock is lying here stunned.

You pierce at Brock's chest. Brock falls on his knees and collapses.
Brock is DEAD!!
You hear Brock's death cry.
A heavy imperial warhorse wanders away.

Because I just did the same thing to Cadmei right before but I didn't kill him.

when your opponent is stunned and you engage them, the dirt kick in this case, it forces you to kill.

This is true for certain attack commands (I'm sure it's the case with "kill" x) but not for others. Don't know if dirt kick fits into that category.

There is a well-documented but difficult to replicate bug also that sometimes switches you over from stun to kill on random occasions. Not sure which this particular instance is.

Not really difficult. A *succesful* dirt kick will always yield a free attack, along with a switch to that enemy. It really can be a curse in group combat - but I guess it's the cost of making it an offensive skill.

Why would you kick a man that's already down. That's just dastardly!

:P

If a character is attacked while stunned the person who attacks them is automatically changed to mode kill. If he wouldn't have been stunned when you dirt kicked him, it wouldn't have changed.

Dirt kick doesn't grant extra attacks, the log shows his normal opening melee attack.

Try starting a fight with a successful bash and a successful dirt kick and notice the difference...

I don't even know what the heck you were trying to say in the first paragraph...
