Psionics aren't very prevalent in our campaign, so it wasn't much worry. But yes that can be messy. I prefer it to the alternative though. Which would be not playing the classes at all.

Now this IS good news indeed. Thank you for passing it along :)

Any setting is only as good as the story teller makes it. Personally, no barkeeps with magical weapons for me. But on the other hand if I wanted Tolkein type fantasy that is what I'd be playing too ;). My preference is for something somewhere in the middle of the two. On a completely personal...

Yes, knights whom, if memory serves, were all slain. Not that they were of the PC character class mind you, and they all died very heroically spurring Lone Wolf on to his eventual recovery of the sword of the sun. Likewise I am sure the sailors who were all killed were not of the PC class...

Ultimately I suppose I am a traditionalist. The two classes I have the most interest in are the ones that are "classic" so to speak. The Kai lord and Shianti Wizard. As such we simply are looking at the game from different perspectives. You are looking at it as it's own RPG based on the game...

I think to be honest, its more they do different jobs, Kai lords are the commands you send behind infantry lines, Knights are your shock troops for all out wars. Its not that the Kai are "better" it's that there specialised in surving on there own, sneaking and infultration. Where as Knights are...

>>Oh, I totally agree that Kai are generally better than others, and the people Lone Wolf meets are probably above average - but he is also above average. Very few Kai achieve anything close to his level of mastery. In a 1st level game though, I fail to see why the Kai should be any better than...

Hmmm yes we definately were looking at the books differently. I attribute certain people appearing in the stories equivalent to Lone Wolf's capability largely a result of the defining abilities being far different (Banedon or Lord Rimoah for example) Or just above average members of a class...

<<I'm pretty sure that's because only a Kai could wield the Sommerswerd, and only the Sommerswerd could beat the Darklords. Lone Wolf as of the first book is a good combatant, but there are plenty of characters from the later books who could have beaten him at that time. I'd say the RPG take on...

Theres nothing wrong with epic plots and adventures- its just not my bag. I am sure many people like playing heroic charactes. Personally i find ordinary characters far more interesting to roleplay- Now see I LIKE epic. Epic is what makes it fun for me, as opposed to every day life which I...

There seems to be two, major, camps here. Setting vs Rules. Me, I personally want both. I want the classes (Especially a Mongoose/Dever approved Grandmaster Kai class since I don't have as much interest in the time line the books are set in, but rather the time line of the actual game books) but...

OK cause I see the the relevance to this forum there, sure.

Given the infrequent nature of the releases I can only hope that you are wrong about that. I just turned 34, I'd like to have those rules before I turn 40 ;) Serious though I see no reason why you can't get your supplements on countries and warrior classes and I can't get my Epic levels. After...

I would love to see the Grandmaster rules appear in something like Might of Magnamund. Though I doubt it will be given the time period that the game is initially set in. With the system not getting that much of a confirmed release schedule in the immediate future perhaps a series of articles in...

I do seem to recall hearing about those yes. I think they were even submitted to mongoose weren't they? Was there ever any word to suggest they were anything like "official"? I ask because players and GMs alike, at least those I RP with, won't take kindly to an unsupported internet edition of...
