It's RP only, just like Strong.

ah that helps Aelos I didn't know that was where everyone was getting the stats stuff from.... I thought it was under character creation :/

Yeah I am still in the process of making an index and properly compiled rules set which is laid out more logically. I will try to get it up later today, otherwise it'll probably be Friday.

Is a Speed of 2 considered incredibly high, even for a speed fighter like Kharad? He wears light armour and has the Agile trait, so as I understand it thats +2 to Speed yes?

Ahhh ok, I'll pick a sixth trait and add it to my signature when I get home tonight.
Probably keen senses to fit his hunting Noldor in a forest duringn the night.

I think thats only +1, light armour doesn't mention speed in the game mechanics info at the top of the page.

Light Armor gives no speed
Medium Armour -1 speed
Heavy Armour -2 speed

I think speed 4 is pretty damn high. Wink

Though a two-handed sword still has the initiative...better keep away from those.

Somebody has speed 4!!!?

Subject: Re: Character Creation (Discussion) 29.05.13 3:42

Aelos Odheas due to Barclay Fencing (Agile, Free Hand, Fast Strike and Masterwork Weapon).

He can't use anything better than a light armour though.

Am I just blind or is there no school or special rules established for two weapon fighting yet?

Admin Posts : 722 Join date : 2013-01-23 Age : 109

As far as I know there aren't yet, you special case, you. I'll ask the GM's about it.

I think that Sir Nikolas uses two weapons as well. Not too sure though.

"Who is this Sir Nickolas you speak of? I am Sir Javier Kristoph Doyle, my good sir! I do NOT wield two weapons, for I am a gentleman that pieces hearts with my rapier. I aspire to learn the arts of fencing from Barclay, but I fear my skill is not yet sufficient..."

I think it is going to suck not having a shield, because I don't believe the player gets anything for simply wielding just a one handed weapon without the Barclay fighting style. No matter, Javier shall preserve ~~(or turn demon and kill everyone)~~!

Quick update: any character who masters all techniques of a single style learns a hidden feat of that style. This is secret, free and very powerful. It is the highest achievement of the respective style and represents the physical embodiment of that style's philosophy.

Sir Javier Kristoph Doyle is hereby requested to attend a special gathering at the castle of Rane. By personal invitation of Alerio Spadino, fencing master.

corrected a foolish mistake; Aelos Odheas has speed 3, due to him only belonging to the Barclay school and merely 'buying' the Free Hand technique.

Condensed and improved rules are up, should be a lot easier to read and understand now.

Yay! Thanks that's a lot easier, but it's late here I'll look what changes i have to make tomorrow.

So if I understand these rules correctly, my Barque should have only cost 60 Renown?
