hey guys, first off i have not been following news for skyrim for months so im kind of out of the loop, and curious if they ever said how hand to hand is going to work in this? also has there been any mention on whether grappling will be able to be done? im sorry if this has been asked but i did search and found only a topic on grappling hooks, so i apologize if this has been asked before.

Yeah im not sure I was thinkin the same think

You will be able to fight hand to hand ingame, but it will not be a skill. It will probably do a fixed amount of damage. I have not heard anything about grabbling, so my guess is it won't be present ingame.

hand-to-hand has perks in the two-handed tree tho i believe, i know for sure that there is one perk for it in the heavy armor tree that adds your gauntlets' armor rating to your hand to hand damage as for grappling, there will probably be special moves, but you will probably have to scour the land to find them.

although it isnt actually grappling and there is no like wrestling minigame or anything (might actually have been kinda cool) you will probably be able to find moves like the "ranger takedown" in fallout new vegas (although its not a beth made game they only published it)

It's also confirmed that Khajiits have a race perk of increased hand-to-hand damage (claws and whatnot).
