Ya, probably is, but it would only be in extended contests, which are only used for the 'big' melee, which is not often... and would add some colour.
In my mind I really think that my players wont get into this much, they simply size up opponents and then bid 50% of their AP +1... its really a very boring aspect of the system. I think it will be the NPC who will use it to inflict 'effects' on players that they have to do something about.
Do other GMs find their players do the -one: hit to learn APs, two: hit for 50%+1 - thing? It makes for quick melees, but essentially reduces all extended combats down to a simple combat in a way.
