Learning the cues of other games

After a few more games we started learning the cues. Auras surround character's protected areas. So if we saw an opening above the character's head a downward slash would be used. If they were unarmoured on the left, we'd attack accordingly. You have to be swift, fast on your feet and a quick thinker. The combat gets quite deep and having the right attacks hot keyed to the numerical keys was essential. You'd find yourself trying to use a deadly equation of 1's, 2's and 8's. The games were fierce and fast, bloody and utterly engaging. We would have liked more modes of PvP combat but what we got was great - even though our poor barbarian was frequently battered about.
