But it is supposed to be supported in the next two releases. I cannot wait, because jedi are done SO much better in RCRB.And just how does he do that?Sorry, if you are going to say X proves Y, state why. Yoda proves nothing. Yoda is not a proof.Uh, just how do his skills indicate that? IIRC, it was Obi-Won that referred to Yoda as a master swordsman... and compared to him, he is.Okay... I think Amidala put it best when she stated why the jedi were there... to FORCE a settlement. The jedi are not statesmen.I take issue with the writeups of some of the characters. Yoda should have had some serious battlemind and enhance ability. However, WHY it was done is this: it was consistent with everything we had seen before. Yoda was a more contemplative jedi with great power in the force. Counselor/Master seemed apt.However, the movie was not complete when RCRB was being written, and the advance information that the authors had was limited. (And as I have said, I still think counselor fits, I would just rearrange the skills.)It's nice to see you think you could do it better. But as Larry Niven once said, any damn fool can predict that past.Ah. That hiccup.I thought you were just parroting Doctor Doom's "we need a roll" carnard.In some sense, I agree. I would say it has a chance to hit if it would hit you sans dodge, dex, and defense bonuses vice the arbitrary "5 less". (I think I will recommend that as a house rule).That said, the ability does say you can voluntarily lower your defense, which serves the same function.Only if you ignore the "voluntarily lower" part.By reading the rules and applying all of them, not just the ones you wish to read.</blockquote>
