    Default Need some help on my if statment.

    Hello, I need some help with my if statement.
    I want to create a simple text base game.
    The game begin with the character reaching the top floor of a castle and encounters the final boss. The character can has two choices, fight or kneel before the boss.

    Right now if i type "fight" it display the following message, "You have decided to fight"
    and if i type "knee" it will display the following "You have decided to join the Bloody Mistress"

    How could i add an if statement into an if statement.
    So if I type "fight" it display the following message, "You have decided to fight" followed by typing "axe" to display "You used your axe, your attack was avoided");

    Can someone please help me!
    Here are my codes:

    import java.util.Scanner;
    public class TxtG
    {
    public static String A = "fight";
    public static String B = "axe";
    public static String C = "kneel";

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
    Scanner x = new Scanner(System.in);

    System.out.println("You gave reached the 100th Floor of the Castle of Blood");
    System.out.println("The Bloody Mistress awaits you at the center of the room");
    System.out.println("Will you fight her?");
    System.out.println("Or will you kneel before her?");

    System.out.println("Choice: ");
    String i = x.nextLine();

    if(i.equals(A))
    {
    System.out.println("You have decided to fight");

    if(A.equals(B))
    {
    System.out.println("You used your axe, your attack was avoided");
    }
    }
    else if(i.equals(C))
    {
    System.out.println("You have decided to join the Bloody Mistress");
    System.out.println("You will help her kill the Priestess of Hope");
    }
    }
    }

    When posting code, please use highlight tags to preserve formatting.

    It sounds like you just want to read in another line and check it. Is that right?
