Hand-to-hand combat

Hand-to-hand combat (sometimes abbreviated as HTH or H2H) is a physical confrontation between two or more persons at short range (grappling distance, or within the physical reach of a handheld weapon) that does not typically involve the use of weapons.
It is a grand tradition in the futuristic world of Nexonia Prime: PROJECT to prove each other's skill using this method, a good old fashioned physical fight. H2H combat is also the go-to to solve each other's rivalries or to settle the score once and for all.
== Techniques ==
*Aikido - A system designed to protect their attacks from injury through carefully placed, timed and executed strikes.
*Boxing - A classic technique and sport that relies on punching, evading and maintaining excellent footwork. 
*Wrestling – It is a combat sport involving grappling techniques such as throws, takedowns, pins and other grappling holds, may also emphasise the strength of larger combatants. During their years of military training, the KNIGHT supersoldiers spent endless hours on wrestling mats sparing with their teammates and handlers.
*Krav magá – Military self-defence and fighting system developed for the Masadonian military forces derived from a combination of techniques sourced from aikido, boxing, wrestling, judo, and karate, and focused on a simultaneous, aggressive attack and defence combat.
*Jiu-jitsu – This Rojinese martial arts/system of close combat (unarmed or with small weapons) can be used in a defensive or offensive manner to kill or subdue one or more weaponless or armed opponents.
*Ninjutsu - A Rojinese system emphasised on stealth, used by their shinobis at their feudal era. It teaches both armed and unarmed combat.
*Ling Chen - A Chazys martial art designed to emphasise the use of non-punching strikes and using the momentum of the enemy against them. It heavily values speed and mass of the combatant's body rather than strength.
*Naekwandi - A Masadonian system characterised by kicks. It has emphasis on head-height kicks, spinning jump kicks, and fast kicking techniques. Apparently, it is favoured to taller individuals as the longer legs will provide more range and power in each kick.
