StaggerActor

Staggers an actor - it reels and loses its next swing.

For seconds (0.2 .. 5) the actor swings no more, lowers its guard and cannot raise one - the opening a perfect block gives in the game - and its body reels with the game’s own hit reaction on every screen. A stagger while one lasts lengthens it. false for a dead, knocked-out or carried actor, an animal or anything else.
