    Soulknife - Lightsabre type weapon attribs

    Hey thanks for those links, they are awesome. Have ppl playtested it for balancing? Brilliant Energy really comes across as the weapon enhancement closest in some ways to what im looking for, but doesnt really fit in other ways.

    What did real medieval mines look like?

    This is kinda 1/2 correct, as the miners move futher into the hillside, the areas past have been converted into homes (and really nice comfy looking homes as well!). These homes honeycomb the hillside but since they are old mining ares there is no opal left in the areas they have passed Another...
