This slow but powerful kick is intended to strike at your opponent's midriff or groin and has a chance to knock them backwards if it connects. The damage inflicted by a successful Side Kick has +1 DC and Knockback 2. Side Kicks count as a thrusting rather than a swinging attack for purposes of Aiming for Location but receive an additional -3 AM against all locations except Guts and Groin (this is applied instead of the -2 AM applied to normal kicks when attacking locations above Groin). Like Snap Kicks, Side Kicks are performed from an unstable pose and apply a -2 AM to all defences until your next turn if successfully parried or guarded.
