V9: Multiple Points of Contact
From AmtWiki
- The Amtwiki is the official home and primary source for Amtgard V9 Rules as of February 25, 2023.
- These rules are currently in Open Alpha Playtest. See the Playtest Disclaimer for more details.

Multiple Points of Contact
- A valid strike that hits multiple unique Hit Locations at the same time will count as a hit to each location struck (except where Torso Priority would take effect).
- Each point of contact must independently meet the requirements for a valid strike.
- A single weapon cannot strike the same Hit Location more than once per attack, regardless of how many individual points of contact it makes.
Example: A Trident that strikes both of Phineas’ legs with a single stabbing motion will count as a valid strike to each leg, but a strike that hits only one leg with all three “points” of the Trident will net just a single valid strike to that leg.
