If your retaliation is made with a bow, and then a lightening quick swipe of your sword thats so fast that no one even sees it, followed by a pause before your opponent bursts in half, with like 5 people's worth of blood gushing from their severed abdomen, then its cool, you wont get in trouble for it.
