== Mongolian Wrestling ==

Genghis Khan considered wrestling to be an important way to keep his army in good physical and combat shape. Wrestling was also used occasionally as a way of eliminating political rivals. There are known incidents of the Khan arranging to have political enemies killed via a wrestling match. Wrestling matches are held in the open on a grassy field, or bare dirt ground not too hard or littered with gravel. There are no weight classes. A small wrestler can end up wrestling someone twice his size.

Traditionally, match-ups are not based on an equal chance. The host of a naadam has the privilege to arrange matches- often, in ways that lend their favorites the upper hand. Sometimes such arrangement results in serious disputes between hosts and visiting wrestlers.

* '''3 points:''' You may combine a Slam or Trip attempt with an unarmed Parry without suffering a multiple action penalty. Parrying an armed attack suffers the standard penalties, however. If your Parry and your Slam or Trip are both successful, the success Width is automatically increased by 1.
* '''4 points:''' Any Slam attempt you make is timed as if its Width was 4.

* Guo Jing was happy and his right hand released its grip and slipped upwards behind Ouyang Feng's back. With a loud yell he pressed both palms down. In wrestling this move was called the [Mountain Breaking Move] and was used when the opponent had fallen, so that no matter how strong his shoulders were or how good his wrestling techniques were, there would be nothing much he could do as his shoulder would break if he tried to move.
