Wondering if people would be interested...

Shosuro Phil, then, I take it?

Come on, is it that easy? it isn't that rare a first name...

As for the Rokugan mod, I've already thought about it. Come on, it's not even that hard, and the current tensions in the Shadowlands between Iuchiban (Blood Magic) and Daigotsu (Death Magic) can even be highlighted.

One thing at a time.

That would be a cool crossover, with at least the two of us interested

I don't know if it would be possible to come up with enough special tricks to make all Clans viable, though. Not to mention the horrible task of balancing things. And the fact that spells might not be perfectly thematic, unless they can at least be disabled in a future patch.

Well, you're the only Phil I know in L5R, for one, but the big giveaway was the fact that I knew you were from France, and at the bottom of each of your Messages it says "From: Bordeaux, France". Put those together and you come up with Shosuro Phil.

As for me, I'm Tasogare. That should say enough right there. ;p

As far as Clans go, Scorpion is the obvious choice for the Stealth people, Unicorn may be overbalanced by getting all the good Cav, Crab would be a lot like Ulm, Dragon might be like Abysia, not so sure about them... not too sure about Crane, either. The Bloodspeakers would be a lot like Mictlan (powerful Blood magic, really light troops), etc. Crane might be like Arco, but without the powerful mages or the Elephants.

Anyway, I'll think more on it and get back to you.

Those prices are correct. Magic goes with multiples of 8 and Dominion with multiples of 7. So it's very easy to make those calculations.

In my opinion Excel is better than Access for this. Queries are not that great for operating the system. Excel can handle all the same things and much more if you just use the right functions. If you use macros then it just gets better and easier.

Hah! I'm just one of the Bordeaux-located Phils. There's at least another L5R player in Bordeaux with the same first name (Philippe's a rather common first name around here, or at least it was in the 70's).
