Rules and Options
Rules and Options The author has attempted to draw as much as possible from the guidelines provided in the 5th edition Players Handbooks and Dungeon Master's Guide. Statistics for weapons listed in the Dungeon Master's Guide were used to develop the damage scales used in this book. Interestingly, these scales correspond fairly well with the values listed in the d20 Modern books. Game masters should feel free to modify any of the statistics or optional rules in this book as necessary. It is important to remember that Dungeons and Dragons abstracts combat to a degree, and does so more than many other game systems, in the name of playability. For this reason, the subtle differences that exist between many firearms will often drop below what might be called a "horizon of granularity." In D&D, for example, two pistols that real world shooters could spend hours discussing, debating how a few extra ounces of weight or different barrel lengths might affect accuracy, or how different kinds of ammunition (soft-nosed, armor-piercing, etc.) might affect damage, may be, in game terms, almost identical. This is neither good nor bad; it is just the way Dungeons and Dragons handles such things. Who can use firearms? Firearms are assumed to be martial ranged weapons. Characters from worlds where firearms are common and who can use martial ranged weapons will be proficient in them. Anyone else will have to train to gain proficiency— the specifics are left to individual game masters. Optionally, the game master may also allow characters with individual weapon proficiencies to trade one proficiency for an equivalent one at the time of character creation (e.g., monks can trade shortswords for one specific martial melee weapon like a war scythe, rogues can trade hand crossbows for one kind of firearm like a Glock 17 pistol, etc.). -
Shinobi Notebook #3
Shinobi Notebook #3 http://passaic-bujinkan-buyu.setech-co.com Ninja Training The Togakure Ryu Ninpo, established approximately eight hundred years ago, is now in its 34th generation. The Ryu (style) exists today under the Bujinkan Association dedicated to teaching effective methods of self protection and promoting the self development and awareness of its members. Due to the stabilized nature of contemporary Japanese government and judicial systems, the Togakure ninja ryu no longer involves itself directly in combat or espionage work. Previous to the unification of Japan during the 16th century; however, it was necessary for Togakure ninja to operate out of south central Iga Province. At the height of the historical ninja period, the clan’s ninja operatives were trained in eighteen fundamental areas of expertise, beginning with this “physic purity” and progressing through a vast range of physical and mental skills. The eighteen levels of training were as follows: 1. Seishin Teki Kyoyo: Spiritual Refinement. 2. Taijutsu: Unarmed combat. Skills of daken-taijutsu or striking, kicking and blocking; jutaijutsu or grappling, choking and escaping the holds of others, and taihenjutsu or silent movement, rolling, leaping and tumbling assisted the Togakure ninja in life threatening, defensive situations. 3. Ninja Ken: Ninja Sword. Two distinct sword skills were required, “Fast draw” techniques centered around drawing the sword and cutting as a simultaneous defensive or attacking action. “Fencing” skills used the drawn sword in technique clashes with armed attackers. 4. Bo-Jutsu: Stick and staff fighting. 5. Shuriken-Jutsu: Throwing blades. Throwing blades were carried in concealed pockets and used as harassing weapons. -

Ninjutsu No Gu
Ninjutsu no Gu Note de l'auteur Lorsqu'on m'a fait découvrir L5A, on m'avais dit qu'il s'agissait d'un monde fantastique inspiré du Japon féodal, avec ses samurai et ses ninja, et toute sa mythologie. Or, je me suis rapidement rendu compte que bien que les Samurai étaient décrits en profondeur et que Rokugan avait sa propre mythologie, les ninja se retrouvaient fort peu détaillés. Certes, on retrouve certaines écoles de ninja dans certains clans majeurs (le plus populaire à ce niveau étant le clan des Scorpions) et au service de l'Ombre Rampante. Toutefois, je n'étais pas satisfait par ces possibilités car je les trouvais à la fois trop restreintes et trop différentes de ma vision d'un ninja. Je ne prétends pas avoir une meilleure vision que AEG de ce qu'est un véritable ninja, mais je me trouvais en droit de créer, pour moi-même et pour de potentiels intéressés, une liste d'ajouts et d'alternatives, afin de satisfaire ma vision du ninja. Les éléments qu'il me semblait manquer aux ninja de AEG étaient les suivants : les villages cachés de ninja, indépendants à l'autorité des clans (exemple : Iga et Koga, au Japon); l'existence d'écoles génériques de ninja, pour les clans ne disposant pas déjà de leur propre école; certains outils du métier d'assassin et d'espion, qu'il s'agisse de compétences ou d'objets; un aspect mythique et religieux du ninjutsu, sans l'influence des préjugés et stéréotypes colportés par le cinéma, à partir des années 60. -
Object of the Game As Leader of Your Clan You Try to Earn As Many Prestige Points As Possible
A board game for 2 to 5 cunning clan leaders, ages 14 and up Japan, 1605 – Hidetada Tokugawa has succeeded his father as the new Shogun, ruling from the great city of Yedo. This is the opportunity our clan has been looking for. Our chance at power and glory. Our clan will prove ourselves to be indispensable to the new Shogun. We will work from the shadows to acquire information about our rival clans. We will kidnap those who might oppose our ascent and assassinate those who prove a threat. We will use cunning to prevent our adversaries from doing the same to us. We will find glory and honor in the eyes of this new Shogun, or failing that we will end his rule by any means necessary. Boldness may win the day, but we must choose our missions carefully. In Yedo, eternal glory and painful disgrace are two sides of the same coin. Yedo: Rule from the Shadows object of the game As leader of your Clan you try to earn as many Prestige Points as possible. You mainly gain Prestige Points by com- pleting Mission Cards, by activating Disciples at certain locations on the game board, and by having fulfilled the tasks of Bonus Cards at the end of the game.
