[Samanosuke Akechi]

This is just a concept, not any kind of rule...

If we have a lack of good, or a lack of evil, the bar will be raised for the side lacking players. In other words, if we only have two bad guys and ten good guys, the bad guys will be given a license to have a higher PL. NOT because they are going to be the focus... because this likely won't be a good vs. evil war, but because most good players won't want me to assign them evil powers out of nowhere because nobody is playing them.

How would that affect anyone's feelings? I don't want to favor either side of good vs. evil (I hope the players don't see in this particular light), so hopefully this won't happen. And I also could "delete" some power from the game towards the end of hte timeline if it becomes necessary.

Eh whatever, I'm ranting.

 

[Creamsteak]

Oh, hinting at my rules for the future...

The reason why I kept Shadowlands IR low, is because they have a certain minor advantage.

If a player of a Shadowlands ONLY group were to attack a non-shadowlands group with 100 PL on each side, here is what would happen...

Given average results on both sides, 1/6th of each side would be defeated... approximately 17 PL in deaths on each side. The non-shadowlands group should regenerate about that much PL if they have a good IR rating, but the Shadowlands hoard will likely lack the initial ability to regenerate that much PL.

Instead, they gain a 5% chance that each PL of enemies killed was "subverted." Now, that only gives them a 1/20 chance of regenerating one point of PL per PL destroyed, but they can still raise thier IR normally during the game.

This rule favors shadowlands hoards in the later game, once IR starts to max out, but this also gives players that are fighting against the shadowlands a reason to focus on destroying industrialized areas.

Not to say I want you to fight a good vs. evil war... but there are reasons why the Crab Clan attacks the shadowlands and scouts them out often, instead of simply sitting behind a wall and looking over the boarder. This rule is still optional until we start playing, so players are going to have to think about whether they want to see it or not.

 

[Black Omega]

It's all good. In any case, Good v. Evil isn't even a factor. Honor, dishonor and taint is. The Shadowlands and Bloodspeakers are the 'Bad Guys'. The Bloodspeakers because they are chaotic. The Shadowlands because they are undead, tainted dishonorable scum who plan to remake Rokugan in their image.

Meanewhile the Good Guys are LE Hantei Naseru and NE Moto Chagatai. Well, them and LG Toturi Tsudao and LN Toturi Kaneko.

 

[Creamsteak]

Ick... I sure miss those long nights when the last IR was going on and I was waiting all night for Edena to post. Of course I don't miss the lack of sleep on weekends.

Hopefully over the weekend we will see most of the players first claims. I would also like to see a few more players join, but I'm not sure I'm looking in the right places. Mayhaps someone else would know a good place to look.

 

[Knight Otu]

The Shadowlands ability sounds reasonable.

I'm not so sure about the Good/Evil thing. If played more or less along the current alliances (which, of course can change), there will be infighting among the "good guys" (the Rokugan clans) just as well as fights of "good" versus "evil".

I'll post my claims later today.

 

[Lichtenhart]

Ok a few more little questions and I'll start my claims:

1) Can anyone put a scan of the map online somewhere or tell me where I can find good maps of Rokugan?

2) Can you explain the rules about PCs/NPCs? I mean, how to make them level up, what can they do, what can the other players do to them... (If it's a rather dumb question sorry, but I thought I prefer to look dumb before the beginning than after )

3) When will the IR begin in the storyline? Right after the spirit wars? Right after Toturi's death? (I ask because I thought Gaheris was dead.)

 

[Knight Otu]

Lichtenhart:
About PCs: If we go by the guidelines of the 3rd IR, the moderator will tell when you level up, and by how many levels. PCs will be relatively resistant to death (Edena wasn't very fond of the idea of killing a player character), but NPCs won't have such a protection. Provided the NPCs are in range, about anything can be done to them

About the storyline: It is my understanding that the game will start some time after the death of Tutori, as "someone" will have to introduce the IR to Rokugan (looking at the lists, it is easy to see who will be it ). I don't recall reading anything about the death of Moto Gaheris, but even in Rokugan, death isn't neccessarily the end. He certainly is the daimyo of the Unicorn in the current storyline.

Yes, Gaheris is dead. This is noted as part ofthe storyline information in the Wayof Ninja book. And also was featured in a two part fiction at the L5R website. If this starts just after the death of the Splendid Emperor, then Geheris is still alive, though. He's old, but alive.
