Btw, I'm sad to report that my dreams of ponying it up have been crushed, as I'm not Unicorn clan.

Much like in Umineko I don't know anything about this setting so I'm gonna keep schtum about flavour in case I again rolled a character everyone will assume is scum. It seems pretty cool though

CubicalSucrose posted:##challenge JS JosefStalinator posted:##accept let's go! The two duelists stand at their assigned places, bowing respectfully. Despite the tension in the air and the promise of violence, there is a certain aura of gentleness and grace to the affair. JosefStalinator is the first to move. His blade is drawn swiftly and in a blur of silver that leaves only streaks in the eyes of those looking on. He is fast and graceful in his movements, his steps sure. He is the perfect image of the idealized samurai. His opponent moves with a calmness that is unnatural, his movements so slow they seem almost sluggish. The warrior attacks, but he deflects each blow, dodging the sword strikes with surprising agility in defiance of his calm, slow movements. It seems that he will not have to resort to other measures, but the warrior is persistent and attacks once again, a final attempt to end the duel in his favor. This time, CubicalSucrose does not defend. With a speed that belies his earlier movements, he catches his opponent's wrist and twists it. The blade falls to the ground. A kick to the stomach knocks the warrior down. CubicalSucrose has won the duel! His honor is proven (not that it was in doubt at this juncture).

I don't understand what the duel system is for. The winner loses a bunch of ki points and gains nothing unless they already have some dishonour? I guess since the loser gets roleblocked it might be worthwhile to challenge someone you think is scum, but there is still every chance of shooting yourself in the foot instead

Yeah I feel the need to clarify before I punch Cubical so hard that his soul comes a little bit loose. Seems like we want max duels to try and eliminate the scum nk.

I also don't know anything, since this is a slightly simpler game than Umineko and Stalker I'm going to try(???) to do more theory crafting. No promises tho.

Therefore you duel and win to mechanical advantage. If I don't get it here please correct me, otherwise I'll throw down.

I've played in exactly two games here on SA (and my last forum based games were on a Pokemon fansite when I was 13, so, unlikely.

So in the ~lore~, Scorpion Clan thrives on dishonor. Of course, this probably means that for this game, they are the noblest warriors known in Rokugan.

Somberbrero posted:] There's an equal chance I would lose though. As far as I can tell, if I won I'd lose a bunch of ki points. If I lost I'd get wounded and lose my night action. There's an equal chance of either unless I can somehow know how many Ki points wolo spent. By refusing I've avoided either consequence and just had my day action blocked, of which I have none besides requesting a duel, which I have no interest in today.
