Being on the NeoGeo, this game only has 4 buttons, but doesn't follow traditional SNK fighting game layout.

==Introduction==


B = Hard Punch
''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.


C = Light Kick
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.


D = Hard Kick
==The Characters==


You can backdash by tapping back twice.
''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.


===Throws===
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.
Throws are performed by holding Back or Forward on the joystick when close to the opponent, and then pressing Hard Punch (some characters also have throws done with Hard Kick). Regular throws can not be softened or escaped in any way.


Clown and Samchay have "grab" throws in which you can do more damage during the grab by mashing the joystick/buttons. The opponent can also counter-mash and break out faster. Clown can do over 25% damage with enough mashing, giving him the best normal throw in the game.
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.


Ray, Jean, and Ryoko have air throws. Air throws do slightly more damage than regular throws, but generally aren't seen too often in play.


Marstorius and Ryoko have special command throws. Unlike regular throws, their special throws can actually be buffered into off a regular attack, and will combo during hit stun if you're in range. Special throws have no whiff animation - if you buffer into a special throw off a blocked normal attack, you will instantly interrupt the animation of the previous normal attack with another normal attack (the button you just hit). You can continually repeat this as long as your attacks are in range, creating a blocked hit string to keep the pressure on the opponent. For this reason it's usually best to stick to performing Marstorius' and Ryoko's special throws with Light Punch, so you don't cancel into a Hard Punch that might whiff and put you in danger.

    <td>[[Image:fhd_game_screenshot3.png|center]]</td></tr>
</table>


===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.


After a character has been dizzied, any further attacks to that character's weak spot will deal 1.5x damage for the rest of the round. Doing a simple combo on a dizzied opponent using attacks that hit their weak point can result in huge damage.

===Super Moves===
<table>
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, but they're only considered secret in the sense that they did not show up on movelists distributed with the game. The secret moves tend to have input motions that aren't as "obvious" to discover as other moves.

=Strategy=


===Combos===
==Page Writing Progress==
A very loose ground combo system is in place. Every character has at least one light attack that can be chained into itself or other light attacks, or you can chain into a hard attack. Most combos consist of an optional jumping attack followed by a couple light attacks, chained into a hard attack, buffered into a special move. Nearly every normal move is bufferable into special moves too, with the exception of some command normals (such as Samchay's f.HP or f.HK). There is no juggle system.

==Tier list==
A universally-agreed upon tier list for this game is impossible to come up with, since it seems as if every player has differing opinions on where the characters fall in the tiers. Here's one example list:
 
 
'''Top'''
*Ray
*Karnov
*Lee
 
'''Upper-Mid'''
*Zazie
*Jean
 
'''Mid'''
*Samchay
*Mizoguchi
*Marstorius
 
'''Lower-Mid'''
*Clown
*Yungmie
*Matlock
 
'''Low'''
*Liu Feilin
*Ryoko
 
 
The placement of Marstorius in the tiers is one that there are rarely agreements on - some think he could be as high as Upper-Mid, others think he's much lower (one Japanese tier listing had him ranked as dead last). He has some very tough matchups and it can be hard for him to get in on characters with projectiles, but once he gets in he has a nasty mixup game that can easily win him the round. So he's a bit of a wildcard since a lot of his matches can go either way.
 
Don't treat any tier list as gospel, as practically every character has something going for them and can be competitive against most of the rest of the cast. This is also due in part to the game's dizzy system, since they can happen in an instant and turn the match around.

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.

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.
