Tactical Advantage Game-info Entry, a proof-reading job

So we need a game-info entry for "tactical advantage". Here's the draft, proof-read / edit at will, but don't fix what's not broken.

Keywords to keep: combat, attack maneuver, defend maneuver

TACTICAL ADVANTAGE

In the heat of the combat one can sometimes gain a tactical advantage after performing especially succesful or effective combat maneuver. This breaks the usual combat sequence of exchanging attack and defend maneuvers in turns and allows a flurry of activity by the advantageous combatant. A tactical advantage can be gained from several reasons and it represents a situation where the opponent is swiftly and efficiently put to an awkward position which buys the advantageous combatant some extra time to instantly make his next move.

A character wins a tactical advantage is he causes an opponent to fall down, drop a weapon, or manages to exploit the opponent's poor combat performance - be it an attack or a defense. All this may result from a direct hit to a proper bodypart but also from weakly performed attack maneuver against strong and skilled defend maneuver - or vice versa. Whatever the cause, the game will display a message if the combat round results in somebody gaining a tactical advantage.

Upon gaining a tactical advantage a character may immediately make another extra action regardless of whose combat turn it is. Quite often this is chosen to be an immediate strike back at your opponent, but it can be any single game action there is; move, pick up something, wield a another weapon or even attack somebody else than the initiating opponent.

If the both attacker and defender gain simultaneous tactical advantages the result is no extra action for neither. It's possible to gain and execute only one tactical in in a row before other combatants get to make their moves.

[Can I suggest that the notification of TA be in a different color or otherwise notable in the combat logs. Perhaps all important messages should share colors, such as events which could cause a TA]
