Yeah, that's what I thought. I just had other thoughts creep in like the Golden Ice "poison" is supposed to be good and just. At least they say that kinda stuff under the chapter section on them. And since you can use non-lethal and not break the non-violence...well *laughs* you can see why...

I was looking through this at the bookstore the other day and liked it a lot. However, I have a couple questions that maybe someone here that has the book or has read it could chime in on. My first question is about the exalted feat which is named something like Fist/Touch of Golden Ice...

WOAH WOAH WOAH, please tell me your not serious about the bruce lee vs Muhammad Ali? Ok, maybe you didn't state the caveat that Bruce isn't allowed to block, kick, etc...only use boxing techniques. Then I'd agree it'd be a great fight. Otherwise, you gotta be kidding. And btw, I am a bit...

I'm thinking in context of modern day when if I was to have a greatsword without a sheath (hell even with a sheath) it would be annoying and akward. Maybe depending on where you live and what you would be doing during a normal day. From my experience holding large objects that were great sword...

I was under the impression I had stated my admiration for your writing already, but a bit more never hurt anyone. So, let me just say I really enjoy reading your story hour. As for critiques, well I am not sure there is much I could really say...at least not off the top of my head. Maybe if I...

ledded, a greatsword would be far more encumbering and annoying to lug around than any loaded shotgun. I don't even need to bat an eye in thinking almost *twice* as much. So yeah, umm, 15lbs maybe, MAYBE, is too much, and the abstraction thing isn't noted anywhere. But a greatsword, 6' or...

Ohhh good point Starwolf. Which inadvertantly brings up a point that I wondered about after my first purusing of the modern d20 handbook. Did anyone else think they mixed up the pocket vest thing with the backpack. How my copy is written is that the backpack allows you +1 str for carrying...

Neat webpage ledded. I only have one sword I got from Toledo when I was in Spain and I went and weighed it just now 'cause I wasn't sure how much it weighed. Well, it weighs 2 lbs. It, however, is a far cry from a greatsword, although I will concede that 15lbs could very well be too much. My...

Not sure what you are sighing at, ledded. Do you want the greatsword to do more damage or weigh as much as the katana? Tellerve

Amen to that! And another $20 spot to help. Looking forward to the shiny new Enworld...not that the old was bad, as apparent from all the good people that made it up. Great job everyone. Tellerve

That sounds horrifically complex and reminescent of my old Palladium games. Not that I don't applaud your tenacity and your realistic verisimilitude. Sorry, just felt like using fun big words. Anyways, I think or rather hope to meek by with a less cumbersome and straightforward system. I'm...

Hmm, well the problem could come up that cma would then even moreso get overshadowed by a brawler. Since the brawlers damage goes up fairly high with just two feats he could have a good chance of knocking out an opponent, and then effectively killing him if need be more easily than a combat...

Grrr, annoying boards. For some reason it hadn't updated for me so I tried to rewrite my post and then see that it is indeed there...so, sorry for the quasi-double post. Tellerve

Yeah, my example was more towards hypersmurf and showing an example where I think the +2 charge bonus should still be applying with two enemies, one then the other, during a cleave. But saeviomagy brings up something else I was trying to get to, and that is the game has flaws when trying to...

Interesting, however, there are some things that I'm not sure I like. It appears to me that it makes the knockout via non-lethal impossible, at least from a feat like knockout punch, as it states if you take more than your massive damage in non-lethal you can only ever be dazed. It possibly...

Yep, all good points. And sadly I don't think we are any closer to figuring a solution...if one really needs one. Thoughtbubble- As for the knife fighter...I dunno. Sometimes the knife would be out in front but I can/have seen a lot where the knife isn't full extended and is held back to...

Something my sifu of wing chun showed me, your kick really doesn't have more reach. Stand up and put your leg straight out, then your arm, both parallel to the floor. Assuming you aren't terrible misproportioned they should be the same. This was during a point he was making how wing chun...

Pielorihno- I'd you have a horse hand and a lance I can show you. Something sharp and pointy with lots of force and hit the shoulder of a human and it could quite easily go through shoulder, possibly tearing the flesh as the diameter increases and shear itself from the person. Obviously if...

Ah, Charles isn't the tank commander...good catch. As for the knife example, I think your right as you have to be quite skilled to not harm yourself while disarming/parrying/attacking someone with a knife or other weapon. However, it is possible, which is what those feats allow. I would agree...
