[QUOTE="Zaran, post: 5392459, member: 56710"] You can do a little of both systems if you truly like 4e. Just use Inherent Bonuses because there wasn't alot of magic items in Rokugan (and the ones you do find are usually pretty powerful) I think the easiest way is to get players to pick a Clan and caste and then pick a 4e class that fits that. I would give everyone Diplomacy as a Class skill. (You might give each class an extra skill choice as well because a Samurai relies on their other skills as well as combat ability) Dragon clan Samurai could be Tempest fighters or Rangers. Phoenix Shugenja could be Wizards. Other Clan Shugenja would probably be Sorcerers. Water Shugenja could be Clerics . All Shugenja would have Religion as a class skill. Crabs would be Barbarians, Battleragers, or two hand weapon specialists fighters. You can reflavor armor a bit. Light Samurai Armor could be Hides or Leather. Heavy could be scale or chain. You can still use the Honor system from l5R . You could do something like allow Honor to be used to add to a roll once a day and if they fail they lose honor. Combat would be less important. You should do alot of Skill Challenges. [/QUOTE]
