Looking for Legend of the Five Rings 5e Small Game

[ShadowFox89]

Just as the title implies, I'm looking for a smaller game of legend of the five rings 5e. Preferably 1-3 players as it seems like larger games tend to just die on the vine. I have a number of ideas for a character but the specific idea will depend on other players interest and what the prospective GM would be willing to try and run.

With that said, I hope this gets some traction. I know the setting has it's fans on E, it's just a matter of folks having the time and energy to run/play.

I have the core book, assuming 5e is the one with the Stress mechanic.  I’d be up for playing.

[ShadowFox89]

 That would be the one. There's been an attempt or two in the past to get one going but they always end up fizzling out.

[Avalon29]

I'll go ahead and put my interest down as well.

[BruceTheCat]

Would there still be interest in this game if it were run using 4e?

Big fan of the game, but I only know 4e. But I know it very well, and have a catalog of game ideas.

Let me know, I would be excited to run this.

[AndyZ]

I don’t know 4e very well but I’d be up for trying.

[HairyHeretic]

4e I know. What kind of game are you thinking about running?

[BruceTheCat]

I’m not certain yet, if the group is up for 4th edition it would be great to know who is still interested.

What I will likely do is a game where all of the players belong to a Minor House. I will roll up three distinctly different Minir Houses, tell you roughly where they would be located, then let the players decide which they would like to pick.

The goal of the game character wise would be to go out and earn honour and glory and fame for your Minor House. Some event in Rokugan would unfold that the Minor Clan will get swept up into. Loyalties would be put into question, what is honor and how far will it make you go

That sort of thing

[BruceTheCat]

Another idea I have is a game that takes place primarily at the Imperial Capitol, and everyone can play whichever Great Clan they would like.

I’ll think on it. If anyone has any preferences or ideas, let me know

[AndyZ]

I’m questioning whether I should be in.  I don’t have the 4e book and not sure I want to buy it since I’d only be using it for this game and likely never again.  Sorry.

[ShadowFox89]

I'd honestly prefer 5e, it's the system I know best and won't have to go back to reread everything to make a character and play.

[BruceTheCat]

Gotcha, good luck in the search

[Pumpkin Seeds]

I could definitely stand to learn 5e better. Just never seems to click for me. Played it once but don’t feel they used it well so wasn’t very satisfying to learn.

Also have 4e if that is up for grabs as well.

How you been, stranger?

Also, if this game happens, I would like to know.  I've set up to play LO5R twice and it never happened.

[Pumpkin Seeds]

Hi Hi!

Just busy and trying to dip toes back in the waters of Elliquiy.

[Captain Whitebread]

Good to see that you finally got some time

[ShadowFox89]

 Bumping this and still hoping to get a GM for a L5R5e game.

[Pumpkin Seeds]

Fingers crossed!

[Captain Whitebread]

Toes crossed.

Eyes crossed.

Lines crossed.

[Pumpkin Seeds]

Part of me just wants to start making dome characters to understand the system better.

[Captain Whitebread]

Certainly an idea.

I'm not even sure which edition I've made characters for.

[Pumpkin Seeds]

They use a 20 questions format with a bit more meat to it.

[Captain Whitebread]

Sounds like the one thing used.

[Pumpkin Seeds]

Might be an idea. Not sure if we could do that here. Just posting up some characters, maybe show off the character creation process.

[Captain Whitebread]

More likely to lure more players rather than a GM.

[Pumpkin Seeds]

Maybe but at least something.

[ShadowFox89]

Bumping this again, still looking for a GM.

[Marie Reynolds]

When you say 5e do you mean Adventures in Rokugan or the New L5r with the special dice that Fantasy Flight loves so much lol.

[ShadowFox89]

The FFG 5e.

[Marie Reynolds]

Ah okay, Thanks for letting me know good luck in the search.

[ShadowFox89]

Bumping this again, still looking for a game of this. And to reiterate, this is an interest check for the 5th edition of legend of the five rings, using the system initially made by FFG.

[Captain Whitebread]

Still interested. Can’t run it.

[AndyZ]

I don't know the system but I have the 5e book and would be up for trying to play.
