Make claw require the player with claw to be next to the player he blocked for claw to have an effect.

Buffs fend indirectly too.

Er. Isn't the claw-player always next to the blocked-player, since he's blocking him?

I guess you mean remain next to him? Not sure how much fluff-sense that makes.

In before multi-color pie charts

Anyhoo... fluffwise, there are some nerf ideas that are cool too. Because really I don't think that Edward Scissorhands would make a good quarterback.
-AG, No hands, Chance of self-injury, etc.

Me no understand the fluff of your idea though.

In our local league we play Claw = AV7 BASE: Applied Before other mods

Gives some incentive to take the +AV or Spikes, and as far as fluff it is easy to envisage players ordering extra gauntlets with hardened plates, or chest protectors with wound staunching padding to prevent the damage they know claw players can bring. Somewhat represents the never ending arms race between offense and defense.

We know it will never happen in LRB6/Fumbbl but in a somewhat more friendly league its fantastic to laugh at the claw monster who rolls an 8 and imagine his claws bouncing off the extra armor someone's lineman brought after last game.

Yes, remain next to him. Fluff sense? I'd normally say who cares, because the idea that claw has no effect on AV7 doesn't make any fluff sense either, but just because you can make if fluffy...

For Claw to have an effect on armor break the player must be next to the player he blocked when that player goes prone. Cuz if he's not, then what are the claws doing?
