Indeed!

primo = first finger
medius = middle finger
orbis = ring finger
brevis = little finger

Where's the thumb?


1,2,3,4... I declare a thumb war!

(Sorry, needed a little levity.)

Hm, could it be fingers moving across a keyboard, or something more cats-cradle style?


I'm going with the keyboard. Left and Right touch typing. number keys acrosst the top, etc.

Excellent! Typing out this 'battle' yields: "knock out gas".

could this be a string of characters corresponding to the fingers which type them?

Damn, Karmic beat me to it!

Put your fingers on the home row, right index on j, left index on f. Then type in the order the battle specifies. i.e. press your right middle finger (K), then move your right index finger southwest (N), etc.

Knockout gas is a fictional substance used in certain types of stories. It is persented in various forms but generally provides a harmless way of rendering characters unconscious. Knockout gas is usually found in science fiction stories and is also a staple of pulp fiction.

Some characters known for their use of knockout gas are Doc Savage, Fu Manchu, Batman, and The Avenger.


If it helps.

My additions:
Rhymes with Mom: Bomb?
Memphis Belle was also a bomber.

Huh?


Start with fingers at the home row. Each move corresponds to a key press. So 'Dextra Attacking with the Medius' = typing with the right-middle finger, the letter 'K'. 'Primo attacking to the southwest' means hit the key below and left of the right first finger.

Follow that scheme and you get "knock out gas".

Anyone else notice that large occurances of one letter, followed by another, followed by the first again: ldl, ncn, kzk, xaz, mcm, vwv...
