[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 2812847, member: 19675"] Actually, as I understand it, Pankration was fairly brutal...those locks and grapples were mere precursors to the breaks and dislocations that were to follow. I disagree- what he's doing is being descriptive of the actual, not normative, state of the game. The D&D core rules are decidedly Eurocentric, with certain archetypes thrown in that could be described as acultural...and ONE Asian themed class. For some people, its the limburger cheese in their Ice cream sundae- it disrupts the flavor. Perhaps, in the fictional (at this point) 4th Edition, the PHB will be either 1) Bigger and more inclusive or 2) Broken down into a group of smaller books, more conceptually united- pehaps "Occidental Adventurers," "Oriental Adventurers," "Psionic Adventurers," and so forth with the universal stuff included in one book (Feats, Skills, Spells, combat rules...). Quoted for truth. [/QUOTE]
