Talk:The Jin Dynasty

--BenofZongo 13:15, 19 October 2006 (MDT)BTW, Ed, this looks really nice. Good background, sounds like it could be a fun little series of games. As for character creation, when you say combat levels can only be taken for martial arts, do you mean just for specific maneuvers? So you can't take the +5 or above levels?

--Edmiao 14:38, 19 October 2006 (MDT)Thanks! The goal is to create a world where martial arts are the most effective form of combat. Exactly how I do that remains to be finalized, and I'd love suggestions as well, as I'm still forming the ideas. I don't understand your question about "+5 or above levels", what are those? You mean the CSL with + to all DCV type? I'll have to think about it. The idea was to limit +1 CSL with bows, slings and darts or +1 CSL with swords, knives and spears. You can of course use weapons without martial arts, but if you want CSL to apply to your swordplay, you need to have weapon tuned martial arts. I would say you could take the CSL for all DCV type if there were some martial arts also present. One danger that I want to stay away from is making ALL the characters into uber-Ninjas, but a few nasty ones should be useful.
