In the series different characters were able to charge up an attack so that it struck with more power than they could normally produce. The best of example of this is when Goku and Piccolo are fighting Raditz. While Goku was fighting him and holding him in the ultimate full nelson Piccolo was charging up his Triple Beam Canon. The system below is based off of that scenario.
Now if you are charging up and attack you must make sure to describe it in your post and end the post with Charge # depending on how many posts you have been charging it now. This is effective as long as you do not get interrupted. Movement is allowed however it is restricted. If the player is on their feet then they may only perform a steady walk or if the player is flying they may list in a direction. Anything more than that the charge either must be used or surrendered.
On our site the generic rule is that every attack you throw can strike at up to your full power. With charge attacks you have the capability to strike at above your max PL.
SO again assuming your have 1,000,000 PL just to make the math simple below is a chart of how charging would affect the power of your attack.
Charge 1 = x1.6 so 1,600,000
Charge 2 = x2.3 so 2,300,000
Charge 3 = x2.9 so 2,900,000
Charge 4 = x3.4 so 3,400,000
Charge 5 = x3.8 so 3,800,000
Now in order for someone at 1,000,000 PL to fire a blast at 2,900,000 PL they would need to be at charge level 3 which would take three posts to charge and a 4th to release, make sense?
Charge attacks may seem hard to pull of and they should be because of the increased power they allow. However; this gives a group of weaker PCs a chance to defeat a more powerful NPC/PC if they can pull it off.
