Re: [dq-rules] Re: The CWT Draft
Hello, Rodger--
I have some thoughts on the rest of this, which I will try to address this weekend, but as to the weapons cross-use rules (yes, that was a rule that was in PBA), once we have an accepted CWT, then some of those rules from PBA (and the cross use rule in particular) should be revised in consideration of the new weapons table and then put to the same evaluation.
I was thinking along the same lines. :-)
Edi, take a look at the iai-jutsu rule in PBA, and make your list of which weapons should be covered; I'll make mine and then we can compare.
I'll do that.
Poor Brendan's Almanac has been out there for a while, but I've heard next to nothing about how it has been received, whether people actually use it, whether they think some parts are good but other parts stink, or otherwise. I would like to bring some of those rules into the accepted canon-or-whatever we-are-going-to-call-it, and would like to get some feedback on them. For now, let's deal with just the combat related ones.
Well, I'll try and remedy that lack of feedback for my part. I've
actually not used anything other than the vanilla DQ rules most of the
time, because I just didn't have the PBA and other stuff at hand
previously, and certainly not printed out. Most of the combat-related
stuff and all of the skills in PBA are or will be in use in my campaign,
the Colleges of Magic are a bit iffier. All in all I certainly liked the
document, it was very well done, but I'll have to read it through again
before I go into specifics. I suppose we should only deal with the ones
that have relevance vis-a-vis the CWT for now, and the rest of the
combat stuff if or when we decide to augment the combat mechanics with
various new rules (e.g. David's Repulse rules, or the Iai-jutsu and
other stuff from PBA). :-)
