A Fistful of Kung Fu is set in a modern world walking a
precarious line between the technological advances of
next-generation technology and the tradition and mysticism of
ancient cultures. Kung Fu schools face off in no-holds barred
martial arts tournaments. Evil corporations hire hitmen and
infiltrators to steal each other's secrets. Overworked SWAT teams
respond to street-level gunfights between feuding Triad and
Yakuza clans. Ancient artefacts are sought by hopping vampires
and cyborgs alike, each seeking to harness the power of the Four
Dragon Kings and control the world. Bullets, punches, kicks and
throwing stars fly in slow motion as martial arts heroes and
gun-wielding cops defeat enemy after enemy in the pursuit of evil
masterminds.

A Fistful of Kung Fu uses a colored dice system to keep track of
wounds and fatigue of the main characters. Mooks and supporting
cast are swatted like flies, but can still be dangerous when
given the advantage of numbers or automatic weaponry. Based on
the popular Ganesha Games rules system, A Fistful of Kung Fu
introduces martial arts combat with manoeuvres that have
different outcomes depending on the degree of success, and which
allow for counter-attacks when they fail, giving a flowing,
appropriate combat system. The game also includes rules for
challenges and "gun-fu" stunts. Each gang in the game comprises
1-3 principal characters and 5-15 mooks that move as small groups
of up to 5 models each.
