Quote from: Brian Leybourne
When I said you could evade both, I didn't mean you had to make two evasion rolls, just one that works against both attacks (you're not trying to stay in the fight but avoid the weapons, you're just getting the hell out of Dodge).


I think what he meant is that your parry DTN may be lower than the 7 for a partial evade. So can you split dice between evasion vs. both attacks and parry vs. only one of the attacks? It would be less effective than a full evade, so I don't see a problem really.

nsruf,

I would say that yes, you could. It wouldn't be a good idea in all circumstances, but it's possible.

Remember though that a Full Evade isn't always possible, or desired.

Yep, I agree with Lance; no reason why you couldn't do that if you wanted to. Conceptually, you're leaping backwards while you parry just one of the attacks. In fact, against the parried attack, I would probably still let you use the evade successes if they were higher than the parry successes.
