~ CSI (Combat Samurai Island) Combat System ~

What is a combat system?


A combat system is a particular device that will give to your avatar the possibility to do special moves in order to fight. A combat system so, will allow you to interact with other people using your same combat system, and fight each other, win or die.
There are many combat systems in SL but not all can interact each other, so depending on what you're searching for, choose the right one is important. As I told, combat systems are many, but not all gives you the same possibilities and not all are of the same quality level.


What is CSI?

CSI is a combat system of melee fight. You will have a sword, and with that the possibility to attack and defend. The community is huge, and as said build up of many clans, and find nice people to fight and have fun with, will never be a problem.

Why choose CSI?

Between all combat sytems that you can find on SL, CSI is for sure the most realistic one. All CSI weapons are well balanced, there are not add ons, there are not points that makes you get more power, there are not levels. Every one with a CSI weapon has the same chances as anyone else he will fight. It is all matter of skils. You will not win a fight pressing keys randomly, CSI requeres tactic, requires training, requires experience. Every fight is a challenge, and requires adapt your fighting style and approch depending on the situation.
For every action, there is an appropriate counter action, this makes the fight very tactic and ragionate. You can slash, you can kick, you can block, and combine those attacks in order to get the better strategy and win the fight.
So differently from many of the other combat systems, you will not just move around pressing repetevely a button, you will not win or lose a fight for luck, CSI is studied to make the fighting experience all a matter of skills. Who better fight will win. If you're searching for a challenge, and a really fun way to fight using swords, CSI will not delude you.



What do I need in order to play CSI?


In order to play CSI, you will need a CSI sword. There is not an additional hud that you can wear in order to use any sword with CSI, you will need a weapon expressively created for that. So, to play CSI all you need is a CSI sword, nothing else, other swords will not be compatible and you will not be able to fight CSI with them.


Where I can find a CSI sword?


The better way to get a CS weapon is taking it from the "House of Blade Mall", directly in Second Life. There are a few in Marketplace too, but you will have to ensuere that it is CSI and not of any other combat system.
In the following page you can find the list of CSI weapons:
     http://www.combatsi.com/e107/csi-weapons.php


Does it costs?


Yes, most of the CSI weapons cost 800 L$, the currency used in SL, and corresponds to 3 US Dollars more or less. Do not waste time searching for a CSI sword that costs less than it because there is not, if find one, is just because is not CSI.


Can I try CSI without having to pay for a sword?


Yes. There is a DEMO version, called bokuto, which can be found directly in Second Life in the "House of Blade Mall", in front of the entrance. It is a DEMO wooden sword, with it you will be able to try the basics of the combat system, but it has many limitations: you wil not be able to kick (which is important part of the fighting tactic), you will have a single slash attack and no combos, you will not be able to make special attack, and it is slower than a real sword. As said is a free demo and is very limitate. Anyway, is still good for learning the basics of the fighting system and get an idea on how it works.


Can I customize my sword in order to make it compatible with CSI?


No, it is not possible, as said in order to play CSI you will need a CSI weapon.


Ok, I got a CSI sword, what to do now, how to learn use it?


Since it is so balanced combat system, in order to get good skills and be able to fight efficently, you will need to train, and make fight experience. You can do that alone, but a better chose would be join one of the numerose clans in order to be instructed and trained and acquire faster all the knowledge in order to become a good fighter.
Iga is one of tose clans, where you will find experienced figters, senseis, who will introduce and guide you through the learning process, giving you hints sharing with you their experience.
