Thanks for t...I hand't even heard of it Fabian. Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a look.<br /><br />For me, the big L5R turn-off isn;t so much the animal theme of the clans, but rather the very limited number of them. Even with the minor clans, there's very little room in Rokugan to add in or detail your own clans or even a clan created by a player for his character.<br /><br />I know why they chose to do it that way (a mixture of marketing and game-play, I presume) but having so few big political "actors" really limits the DM's options when it comes to plotting intrigues and family feuds. Don't get me wrong, I love the setting. But I find the small number of clans very constricting.Dangerous Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494853825931603065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4494993840691690623.post-52266389641982666752011-11-14T15:06:47.311+00:002011-11-14T15:06:47.311+00:00Absolutely agree on Swords of the Daiymo - it'...Absolutely agree on Swords of the Daiymo - it's a brilliant book. Kara-Tur is good over-view of Asian analogues, as is The Horde but a combo of RQ:LoN and OA1 is a winner for a fantasy Japan.<br /><br />Rokugan is a like a mash-up of Japan and China, with a dose of body horror. I like aspects of it but the whole animal clan thing is a turn off for me. Have you looked at Wicke's newish samurai rpg Blood & Honor? It sounds like a really fun take on the genre.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10678503778316350427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4494993840691690623.post-55144393508661921112011-11-14T15:00:22.887+00:002011-11-14T15:00:22.887+00:00Thanks Ray.
RuneQuest Land of the NinjaIt's a...Thanks Ray.<br /><br />RuneQuest Land of the NinjaIt's a great sourcebook. OA and the Forgotten Realms Kara-Tur guides are faily decent. But I reckon that the most useful information on a near-Japanese culture in RPG supplement can be found in Land of the Ninja and OA-1 Sword of the Daimyo.<br /><br />The Legend of the Five Ring's stuff is a great mine of material for adventure ideas and the supernatural. But it's depiction of Japanese Culture is, in some respects, much farther from the historical truth than a great many people realise. I'll be mining L5R for inspiration when it comes to the supernatural: blood magic and monsters and using the concept of taint as a sort of substitute for insanity points. But there will be very little of Rokugan itself in the game world.Dangerous Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494853825931603065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4494993840691690623.post-18604509222748035052011-11-14T14:10:37.361+00:002011-11-14T14:10:37.361+00:00Got my copy of Runequest: Land of Ninja the other ...Got my copy of Runequest: Land of Ninja the other day.
