Introduction

Fighter's History Dynamite (also known as Karnov's Revenge) is a fighting game created by the now-defunct company Data East and released in March 1994. It is the sequel to the infamous Fighter's History, which drew the legal wrath of Capcom during the early 90s accusing it of being a blatant rip-off.

While the original game was made on Data East's own arcade hardware, the sequel was released for the Neo Geo with several improvements. Aside from new backgrounds and music, the engine was completely overhauled, so it became more combo-friendly and controls became more sleek. All nine characters return from the original game, while also making two bosses playable and introducing two newcomers. Although the game never achieved mainstream success, it maintains the cult status following to this day as one of the greatest Street Fighter II clones there is.

The Characters

Fighter's History Dynamite has 13 playable characters, 9 of which are returning from the original FH. They are Ray, detective from Los Angeles; Feilin, Chinese actress; Ryoko, 17 year-old judo prodigy; Matlok, British punk rocker; Samchay, Muay Thai pro; Lee, Chinese Bājíquán specialist; Mizoguchi, high-school dropout who practices Jissen Karate; Jean, French professional gymnast; and Marstorius, pro wrestler from Italy.

Two boss characters from FH also became playable: Clown (the name says it all) and Karnov, the almighty fighter from Russia and the host of the "Great Grapple" tournament. The final two characters are newcomers: Yungmie, Korean Taekwondo queen in search of her missing parents; and Zazie, a founder of the African Nature Protection Society who practices Karate.

All in all, the cast has variety. There's lots of fun to be had with new moves and the overhauled engine in FHD that ups the game's speed and combo potential.

-You can backdash by tapping back twice.
+==The Characters==
-===Dizzies===
-Dizzies work differently from most other games. Each character has a unique piece of clothing on their body, which is damaged when hit, indicated by the object flashing. Once the object takes three hits it will fall off and the character will become dizzy. You can only lose the item once per round, so there's no fear of multiple dizzies or redizzies. Clothing is positioned in different places depending on the character, so some characters (depending on their attacks) will have an easier time dizzying certain other characters.
-Each character's weak point will be listed in their individual section.

They are Ray, detective from Los Angeles; Feilin, Chinese actress; Ryoko, 17 year-old judo prodigy; Matlok, British punk rocker; Samchay, Muay Thai pro; Lee, Chinese Bājíquán specialist; Mizoguchi, high-school dropout who practices Jissen Karate; Jean, French professional gymnast; and Marstorius, pro wrestler from Italy.
-===Super Moves===
-A popular misconception is that there are super moves in the game, which is not true. Some characters ''do'' have secret moves which can be performed at any time.
-=Strategy=
-===Combos===
+Two boss characters from ''FH'' also became playable: Clown (the name says it all) and Karnov, the almighty fighter from Russia and the host of the "Great Grapple" tournament. The final two characters are newcomers: Yungmie, Korean Taekwondo queen in search of her missing parents; and Zazie, a founder of the African Nature Protection Society who practices Karate.
-Combos normally follow the same formula, linking a couple of crouching light attacks into a special move. However, quite a few characters can add a crouching or standing strong attack after the light attacks before canceling into a special, much like the CPS1 combos in SF2, but nowhere near as difficult.
