  1. Hey, don't forget, since his is the highest security prison, they should have shields of negative-warp energy. Also, militaries today in order to save money, make only every third bullet in automatics armor piercing, so i think you should apply this principle to the guards. The third bullet of every third guard should be charged with negative energy to pierce psychic shields.

    This is to maintain the challenge and risk.
  2. Don't worry, just run away from the fight, during that period you weren't active, we got your character some unriveted chainmail from the lightbane assassins. It gives you full mobility, but only offers complete protection against slashes and minor protection against bludgeons. Its not much, but it helps. You are still disadvantaged, but with his Judo, you might be able to garner the advantage. If you are on the ground Judoing somebody else, their armor becomes a hindrance.
  3. I hope my goalie isn't Green from England's soccer team...

    Mkay...I guess I'll go die now...lol
  4. In this scenario, your katana blocking would be the goalie. You have a large area to protect with only two weapons that cover a pretty small area. The rate of failure has actually been calculated. A master facing a novice, will fail to block one out of ten times due simple chance. A simple breastplate decreases the rate of failure to less then one out of a thousand.
  5. And yes its good, but these guards are elites, they are very good as well, maybe not quite as good, but close enough.

    And I didn't think you did, but

    1. Chinks only occur in misfitting and/or poorly made articulated platemail. Mostly misfitting off the shelf stuff.

    2. Under the arms and such are protected by mail, only the regular soldiers would be unprotected there. The Katana is incapable of exploiting that, it doesn't have enough power. (Power being, the amount of kinetic energy is transfers, Katanas have their center of gravity very close to the wielder making them very, very fast but not all that powerful. They usually made up for that with extremely accurate strikes and adamant hardness.)
  6. Sounds very....not good....

    But I could block blows with my Katana. Wouldn't that count? I mean, Ryoma has Kenjutsu as 6. Thats pretty damn good.

    EDIT: I didn't literally cut through the guards. Duh. That would be impossible.

    And no, of course Ryoma didn't go for the guards' armor. He would aim for their weaker spots, like at their under arms, or the chinks in their armor.
  7. This is not an anime, you need armor. Here is a perfect metaphore of why you need armor. In a soccer game, you have two teams, a ball and two nets. The teams represents your character and the enemy. The ball your weapons and the net your armor.

    Goals represent wounds lethal and non-lethal.

    Now your character without armor, has a super big net. A really big one, that spreads from one end of the field to another. The enemy's character with armor has a itty, bitty goal, only two feet wide.

    Now, you see the problem of your lack of armor?
  8. Okay, well, we are on a ferry.

  10. Im really sorry I couldn't post for almost a week. RL issues.

    If it's okay with you, I'll be posting here and there, but not as much. I should be back to normal in about a week.

    Thanks.
