In preparation for GenCon Bowl, I want to make sure that I understand how the Wrestle skill works. Let me put it into the four scenarios, and in all cases the 'Both Down' result is chosen on the blocking dice and the players involved are NOT carrying the ball:

(1) A1 blocks B1. A1 has Wrestle, B1 has no skills. A coach can decide to use Wrestle, and both players go down with no armor rolls and no turnover. Correct?

(2) A1 blocks B1. A1 has no skills, B1 has Wrestle. B coach can decide to use Wrestle, and both players go down with no armor rolls and no turnover. Correct?

(3) A1 blocks B1. Both players have Wrestle but not Block. *Either* coach may decide that both players go down with no armor rolls and no turnover. Correct?

(4) A1 blocks B1. Both players have Block and Wrestle. *Either* coach may decide that both players go down with no armor rolls and no turnover. Correct?

Thank you for helping to clear this up for me. Smile

Ok - so far so good. So let's say we are dealing with the fourth scenario - both players have Wrestle and Block. Coach A (the one throwing the block) decides *not* to use the skill, but Coach B decides *to* use the skill. A has no choice, even though his player threw the block?

I think that is correct. The coach with the wrestling coach can choose...even if the other would rather not.

Ok... I have a wrestle question.

If you make a Blitz move and wrestle someone to the ground, can you after that, if you have movements left get up so you will be standing?

You can't stand up as Wosret correctly shows
