By the way, why is there a general consensu that Kai are cooler than Jedi? Well, maybe Jedi, :wink: , but IMO Darth Maul was way cooler than Lone Wolf.

And, hey nice comparisions. Makes me wanna sic both against the other. Also, if looking from a purely d20 stats point of view, even without lightsabers Jedi can be deadly, as per the battlemind skill.

Hey, what do you mean, "consensus"? I didn't consent to nothing! :wink:

Probably what's to expect here: You'll find people who like both, and you'll find people who like the Kai and hate the Jedi. People who feel the other way around posting on this forum would rather surprise me ... :shock:

I think the sommerswerd getting destroyed by the acid is more of a game mechanic thing, but who is to say the same acid dripping on a lightsabre handle won't destroy that too?

Speaking of the sommerswerd, LW could just blast the jedi a'la Gnaag and Zagarna. :)

Err ... that's true, but not the point ... We were talking about whether the Sommerswerd (and/or Kai weapons) would be cut in half by a lightsaber when they clash together, weren't we?

:shock: Jedi are Darklords?? Never knew that ... treacherous bastards to pretend being a force of Good! :wink:

Okay, we are taking a future setting, and trying to cross it with fantasy, using rules that are all D20. Thundarr anyone? Anyway, if I understand correctly, correct me if I am wrong, Lightsabers are in D20 fantasy. They are called Brilliant energy weapons. They CAN be blocked. . .

Thoughts,

Fair enough, but look at all the stuff the sommerswerd stands up to, multiple darklord weapons, the deathstaff, etc. Also, the fact that it's over 2000 years old and still in mint condition is, to me at least, proof of it's all but indestructibility. IMO, LW is much better armed than any jedi.

I would think that the acid destroying the Sommerswerd was indeed a game mechanic. However I would also believe that like any artifact the Sommerswerd has some arcane and difficult to achieve method to destroy it. Even when it is empowered, as opposed to the game mechanic of the sword losing it's power if taken into combat by someone other then a Kai Lord (Or presumeably a latent Kai).

Most artifact level items have some "Mt. Doom" style method of destruction. But I can say that personally any greater magic weapon/item, including but likely not limited to: The Sommerswerd, Skaarn Ska, Wizard Staffs, and the newly created Kai Weapons would be counted as unbreakable without extraordinary means in any campaign I have a hand in creating. But then I really doubt any Jedi will be popping up to ever test one of those items anyway ;)
