"It's Asian so it must be different", and arguments of its ilk is absolutely wrong on so many levels, its not even funny.That said, they should most definitely have an "Oriental Adventures", along with an "Arabian Adventures" and any other number of similar source books like that. And they might even include new classes, but they should not have a new power source. Between, martial, arcane, divine, psionic, shadow, and primal. I think you can make pretty much every possible combo you want.Also, why make a ninja class if you have an assassin, why make a samurai if you have a warlord, bushi- fighter, wujen- wizard, monk- soulknife/psychic warrior, shugenja- druid/primal sorcerer, sohei- paladin, and yakazu- rogue. You could go down the line with Arabian Adventures too. I think niche protection is very important, spreading out and making multiple classes that fill the same niche is going to make the game burst at the seams. The setting books should include new paragon paths and new setting specific powers and also give the base classes a mildly different set up for the class for instance an Asian rogue (yakazu) might have two possible methods that are different from the brute rogue and CHA rogue (whatever it was called) same class different feel.</blockquote>
