There's a legendary (🙄) set of rules that features "dance off" combat.
Example, Bye Bye Birdie.

Or, West Side Story.

Jets vs Sharks.

Sure, it has nothing to do with armor thickness, and 200 meters distance. But…
What's the name of the rules? I can fudge the miniatures, if needed.

"Sharks and Jets".

It requires ASL to play?

That's pretty cute. Later when I have given up on being productive for the day I will give this a read.

You can definitely see the influence of ASL: "Gang members who don't use finger-snapping suffer a (-1) DRM called Defensive Dance Non-finger- snapping Movement or DDNFSM in defensive dances against them during the movement phase."

Someone put a lot of time into this.

My search skills failed me.
