Updates made to rules section. We're probably close to being ready to start, probably tomorrow.

Doubt I'm going to be all set by then, but it seems like everyone is pretty set up.  I hope you all have fun ^_^

xP Hey man, if you need more time, all you need to do is ask.

AndyZ

Nah, my creativity is just being mean lately.  I can't seem to force any of my Scion ideas out onto a sheet.

Could be worse, though.  The ideas for my next novel are chugging decently along so I can't complain too much.

Well, hey, that sounds novel, hehehe...

But seriously, if you really must go, don't be a stranger, alright?

AndyZ

I'm leaving the mental box open for ideas.

Working on my sheet now. Just trying to make sure my numbers are right and buttoning up some details. I should have it sent sometime tonight for review.

Life is a hard game but the rewards are sweet if you know where to look.

UPDATE: At this point in time, we have a full roster! I also may have jumped the gun yesterday, saying we could start today xP It would be more considerate, I think, to allow everyone to get their characters and sheets up on the profile thread before we begin.

If threshold successes on attack rolls become automatic successes on damage rolls, then that means Epic Dexterity affects damage as much as Epic Strength does, and Epic Dexterity is already pretty powerful. I'm not sure that that's a good idea. (Except for guns, which do have a lot of trouble doing damage in high Legend scenes.)

I've seen one house rule that applies Epic Perception to missile damage the same way Epic Strength gets added to melee. Would that help here?

Yeah, that perception knack applies. I've already modified that house rule on the front page, bringing to back to how the game is traditionally run.

EDIT: Specifically, Thousand Yard Stare and Shatterpoint knacks from the quick reference house rules is what I was thinking.

Here we have a link to the OoC Thread, and I'll have a link on the front page here. Please, make good use of it until we're ready to get this show on the road.

Absolutely love a GOOD Scion game. I'd play if there was room and it wasn't PbP. If it's off site I can also bring 3-5 folks if you want them.

Feel free to pester me.

Teddy Molotov

Good to know, though I think PbP is working well with our current group.

There is also the option of running a game on our Mumble server. I've run an L5R one there, though it can be tricky to co-ordinate more than a couple of hours time when you're dealing with people spread across not just countries but continents.

Yeah... time zones make RL gaming a hassle, sometimes...
