Hey I have a player that believes that if you have multiple H2H you can switch between them and get the addtionally attacks of all. So if you have two or thrid H2H you end up with 15+ attacks around. I believe that you used up some many actions in a round they should be removed from the H2H. Ie your highest has 7 attacks, but you are in a 5 attack you complete out and switch to the other for 2 more attacks not 7 more? What is the Cannon rules for this?

You get the number of attacks for the H2H form you are currently using. Multiple H2H forms *do not* stack, except for one pair in N&SS(R). I'm AFB right now, so I can't tell you what those two are. Iffen I recall correctly, one's exclusive and begins with an H, and the other is a weapon-focused form.

Also, I don't remember how often you can switch forms. It might be per action or per round. I do know you aren't limited to one form for the whole fight. (Unless you only have one form, of course.)

You can't switch forms in the middle of a round. When you pick a form at the beginning of a round you're stuck with it until the next initiative roll. Also AFAIK, there's only two MA forms that are allowed to be combined anyway; Moo Gi Gong and Hwrang-do (or however it's spelled) should be the two forms (I'm not sure on the spellings).

There are no h2hs in the N&S game. There are only Martal Arts Forms.
So techinly speaking; leaving out the RC books (even thou these are more like 1/2 parts of MAFs); No char can have more than one H2H within the PA gaming system. Therefore, the presumption is false.

Only Dedicated HAs can have more than one MAF. Even then The Beast is correct that MAFs can only be switch between the conclusion of one Melee Round and the beginning of the next Melee Round. And about the only two MAF that can be used together.

The Nei Chia Wu Shih on page 49 of China 2 would beg to differ, as they start with two hand to hand skills.




Besides the conversion book process which brings those classes that have multiple into Rifts there is the simple multi-class option that provides you with the old H2H and the new H2H.
Regardless of how you gain them though it doesn't matter if you have 1 H2H or all 80 of them.
You can only use one at a time, and
The only benefits are that one art.
And you must pick at the start of each round which one you are using.
