USE:

  1. Use form one when there's no possible ambiguity. In the example, there's only one guard in the current room.
  2. Use form two or three when more information is needed to interpret the command - that is, there's more than one possible target by the same name to which the command could be applied. In the example, there's a tall guard, a short guard, a skinny guard, etc.
  3. Use form two or three when more information is needed to interpret the command - that is, there's more than one possible target by the same name to which the command could be applied. In the example, there's a tall guard, a short guard, a skinny guard, etc.
  4. Use form four when there are many instances of <target> present, and you want to whack one of them in particular.

You must be wielding a Stick, Handbag or other whacking weapon to use the Whack command.

Sticks, Handbags and other whacking weapons are lethal. Initiating a fight while wielding one is likely to result in the death of your opponent - or yours.

In TriadCity, violence nearly always causes alignment drift toward evil. It's possible to become very evil very fast if you initiate lots of attacks. See the player guide for exceptions.

There are many conditions which could prevent you from being able to whack a particular target. You may be too tired, or paralyzed, or blinded and unable to find the target. The Game channel will inform you of the outcome of your command.

As with many other TriadCity commands, your expertise with the Stick Skill or another Skill specific to whacking weapons will determine how effective your attempts to use the Whack command will be.

"Despite their familiarity with the technology, and their well-deserved reputation for innovation (if not chutzpah), the games industry is only now emerging from a creative and financial slump, and only now seeing the possibilities of building games for a market that appeals to more than teenage boys."
