      Vicious Walkers (VW) is a model introduced in physics by Fisher to describe the wetting and melting phenomena which occur sometimes in many non-interacting particle stochastic systems. A competing model is provided by the so-called Totally Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process (TASEP) which deal, in the contrary, with interacting particles. In the present paper one proposes a model (SVW or semi VW) which lies between the VW and the TASEP, and deals with interacting particles with partial repulsion or attraction. The survival probability is carefully analyzed and its large-time asymptotic expression is obtained, and the relation of the latter with its counterpart for VW and TASEP is exhibited..
