Which is exactly correct. One thing that will be changing is that in -most- cases the last maneuver modifications will only last as long as (or only slightly longer) than the roundtime for that maneuver itself -- ie no more perma-{{com|lunge}} penalty until you do something else. The lunge penalties will last until the lunge roundtime is over, or perhaps a few seconds longer, but certainly nothing like we have now. Dodge/{{com|Parry}} and similar defensive maneuvers will be the exception, and will last until you leave them.

''> Is it JUST Dodge/Parry?''

Right now, yes. I am going to look at ways to make {{com|Block}} work similar to Dodge/Parry on all levels, and it is possible that a few of the non-damaging brawling moves like {{com|Bob}} or {{com|Weave}} may work in a similar way. Not sure yet, but it's possible since they involve participating in combat only halfway -- ie you are certainly moving around a lot, but you aren't trying to both defend and attack at the same time. In exchange for forgoing an attack, there should be some benefits.
