Its nothing special, its just like a kata (sp?) that is used as a way of optimizing your shots while not being in the pathway of a bullet. So, I think the force would not be in this one, its kinda like a TKM, but with a blaster.

For those that like to read, read the book Gunslinger by stephen king. IT then opens up into a whole series about the guy. It is what made me build my template like this.

Just watched this movie, and would it not be awesome if a TKA/Pistoleer became something like this in the game with the moves to match? One can always dream.

Ya its a good movie. The plot was interesting also.. sort of a 1984.. bad future type of movie but I liked it. The fight scenes are very good and I was surprised when I watched it like 5-6 months ago becuase it sort of flew under the radar it seems.

very much under the radar. it seems like it was kind of labeled a "Matrix clone". I loved it though, and everyone I recommended it too has liked it as well.

IF you are on lowca and wanna help lemme know.
Only TKM/Pistoleers allowed?

well it depends, if you want it to be totally accurate I would add swordsman, seeing as how he used a sword in parts. Not really sure though, I dont want to exclude it to much, I do want some members. Maybe try to make an elite swat type unit of people or something. I dont know. GIVE ME YOUR IDEAS.

His use of the Sword could just be a personal thingy, or it could be chocked up to Master Brawler.
Either way, I'd say Novice TKA/Novice Pistoleer should be a prerequisite for admission.
Dang, now I'm tempted to start a toon on your server to play this out with you.

Go for it. I could use the help since I have never done this before.
I look at it this way, back in the day I had a tka friend, who was an awesome tank, and I just fan shot everything. We burned through mok missions, since he had a lot of medic skills along with tka he really was uber tank. So I mean we would be awesome fighters in group settings, and from what I hear pistoleers are the unknown killers
.
I figure it should be both imp and rebel, seeing as how you cant really judge if they are good or bad, it is a matter of viewpoint for you. ALso we can be like mercs, and latter if they ever instil player bounties, we will be uber bh.

Pistoleers are weak without BH pistols. I'm trying to design a decent template that will make both the Pistols and the TKM abilities both fairly viable.
You can take Master Pistoleer and Teras Kasi Master, and still have 66 SPs remaining.
So far, I've taken Master Pistoleer, TKM, Dirty Fighting IV, and Medic 1440. This is some great healing, but you won't be able to heal Bleed in combat, but you can of course Meditate stuff away after the fact. You'll need speed-sliced Pistols to cap most specials, and you will have Feign Death as well. Pistols still lack Speed and two of our six available bleeds (Torso Shot and Bleeding Shot).
