Nice. Count me as uninformed. I didn't know it existed.

I see a watering hole on the horizon. Wandering the sands of Stygia can be quite an adventure. Sounds like a good game you have planned. I have a few groups of players that when I give them the freedom of choice, spend all their time discussing what to do rather than doing. Other groups...

I'll trade you three pieces of jade. I have not kept up with the changes in the setting. My knowledge of 2nd and 3E are of the mechanics only. Also I have not kept up with the card game since they were forced to change the logo on the back. (Silly olympics.) Can someone give me a short...

The worst part of Kush are all the flies. REH one of my favorite. Like what they are doing in this game, but unfortunately I lose interest in PC games quickly. The server I was on must have been loaded with annoying players, because, well, they annoyed me. I quit the game last year...

Now bow to your damiyo, now bow to your corner. So what clan is the most popular amongst L5R players? Is the choice mostly based on abilities or role-play?

Real quick thought. What about a class feature that allows the psion to maintian up to two sustainable psion powers with 1 minor action. You can then insert sustainable abilities on your powers. Maybe this increases to 3 11th and 3 21st.

Your ID is my plaything. First off, great work. It is obvious you have put a great amount of thought into this. I will look forward to the final draft. I plan on making it my official 4E Psion class. I'm old school so much of what I say is founded in that. Take what you want, leave the...

Conquest or servitude? I would agree with leaving out the extra bonuses, and question the removal of stat increases. Actually I think 4E lifted the all stats increase from Conan RPG. Conan from when he started his career to the end grew in stature. His strength and other stats grew along...

Seek and ye shall find First check out this link. http://www.crystalkeep.com/d20/index.php They have put together great indexes for 3.5 and 3.0 D&D. Looking at the Feat index you can pull out numerous feats that have no direct combat use. The Leadership feat does not add to combat...

The Shadow of greatness, do you cast it or hide behind it? I'm new to PbP, but venerable in RPG. I would be interested in joining the party, if you don't mind the learning curve. I can get my paws on the required books. I'm flexible with my character selection. Whatever would work best...

Only real women and men need apply. L5R is absolutely one of the deadliest games out there. In fact in the 1st ED book they discuss going to katana masters and asking them about combat. The bottom line was in real life the combat was over quickly. Having a katana slice through you will...

Check out the Green Lotus vendor in Shade alley Sounds like a nice mix for 4th Edition. Then the arcana and religion skills would require the PC to spend time either with a temple or at a school to learn. Keeping magic in Conan 4E to the rituals is a nice touch. The beauty of the sacrifice...

Vulgar display of power Great point. The Conan RPG uses DR armor as well. The flip side of this line of discussion is not to increase the damage, but to decrease the hit points.

In truth magic should be extremely rare. An evil sorceror or a priest should be encountered very little and more than likely the players should not be either class. At most one sorceror or one priest in your party. Conan RPG uses the scholar. As in the Cthullu type magic that is prevalent...

Thank you sir may I have another. As an active rules abuser, I am happy to see that some broken combos made it past the gauntlet of play testing. All hail the power gamer. Did I mention I will be debuting this abuse in a game near me within a fortnight? As a tyranical GM, I thought it...

Roll a Percentage for psionics Having dabled and abused Psionics as a player and GM since AD&D, I am glad to see someone or several people taking on the challenge. Though I have greatly worn out the welcome for any psion in my own group, I will eagerly take a look at what you have put...

Another tankard of homebrew please. Traveller is traveller. 4E is 4E. The two are not really compatible in many ways. If you're goal is ease of encounters, I would recommend creating a system to make encounters easier for Traveller rather than redesigning 4E to fit Traveller. Traveller...

Of course the WotC modules are taking you through the full tour of demon and devil worshipping cults. Orcus in H1, Asmodeous, Baphomet, and Yeenoghou H2. More to come in the next modules you'll find out. So enemies of PC = demon and/or devil worshiper One alternative (that doesn't quite...

I like my Crab with a side of Dragon. Have you played 3E L5R before? 1E? 2E? Which does your group prefer? I like some of the changes they have made to the 3E game. I used some of the rules for my Star Wars game. (Based on 1E rules) The biggest change I made for the Star Wars game...
