Title: traits
Post by: hawklord2112 on May 18, 2004, 02:11:45 PM
ok then - how's about this. lumpley mentioned dropping the "Shield" trait since it wasnt used.

if you are playing this and maintaining the "knightly" feel (as opposed to the Knightley feel, which is more pervy and ...well... i'm sure it's not just me...) then you change "Sword" and "shield" to:
"Knightly Combat" and "Common Combat"
so one is swords, heavy armour, lances, all the trappings of nobility. and the other is... well, brawling, crossbows, pikes, clubs, and all the more rough and ready methods available (and allowed) for the masses.

oh and to everyone in the thread echoing the "i want kids" bit.... no you don't.. they are excellent,  and rewarding, but until they hit 4-5 years old they will really cramp your RPGing....

The above posts were split from Prydain, The Hobbit, Pendragon ... fun for kids! (http://www.indie-rpgs.com/viewtopic.php?t=10001). No big deal - carry on with the discussion.

Best,
Ron

That's purty, Ross.  Are you, um, available to do work like that?  For other games?

Plus knightly combat vs common combat is smart, I think.  I'll run it by my coauthors.  I tried to convince them to go with another rule change I thought of and they were NOT HAPPY.  Vegetables were thrown.
