Body Shot & Overhand Smash

I was under the impression that using these two abilities would take you back down to Self-defense, since they're not Karate, Kung Fu, or Aikido style moves.

However, when using these two abilities, your stance doesn't change.  Just wanted to know if this is intended or not.

Good eye, SK.  I noticed that last night too. 

This was a purposeful change actually. There was a standing issue with Covering Fire and in order to make this ability work correctly the other specials in the Operative and Soldier disciplines had to be assigned more advanced styles to use if the player had them loaded. In this way MAs and Gunman now have a couple of more tools to work with. :smileywink:

yah... good move on devs part this time.  gotta say i use iron guard a heluva lot.  and it helps in 2 ways.  first, the defense upgrades.  second, its a low IS aikido move unrelated to other timers.  nice touch devs.
