ah. so less advanced weapons?

How are wolves at a disadvantage?

Theres much more of them...

that is a point.

ineptus astartes wrote:Also, is the Crooked World using modern tech, or is it still spears and swords? Or is it blackpowder era?

I would assume it would be the same if not slightly more advanced than today's technology considering the timeline is slightly ahead in which the Vampires had won their war.

There's much more of them...

So far Mrodo's proposed four or five different new vampire classes...Halo's come up with a plethora of wargear for both hunters and vampires...Berserker has come up with a bunch of different mage classes that the wolves probably can't use...

So far, the only things that the wolves have gotten for this entire thing, to my knowledge, have been the two templates that me and Chowder came up with...

yeah, wolves got nerfed...

Meh, they still got the biggest force in the game...

... which of course Dez and the other 5 or so wolves aren't included in...

... then again, I suppose Crooked World vamps have an amazingly big force if they get into the "real" world...

whew!

Pages and pages of backstory, character development notes and all the kind.

finally finished with my character, I will of course, wait till we get some more stuff to post him.

heres a hint.

'knights of the round table'

Oh god, please not Lancealot...

You get to wait and see...

(It's a pretty strange mutilation I have done with the arthurian legends for my character, actually.)

Yes, those were my thoughts exactly...though of course wolves could make use of much of the "anti-vamp" war gear...still not really much added to them...

EDIT:...I'm going to run a few " combat simulation test" just to see how balanced things are ...

True, but there are just not that many variations in "Howl and beat up people with claws and fangs" classes you can have.

No, there's not...which is one of the reasons I wanted to keep things less complicated...

my character is a knight, thats about as different as you get. he howls and beats up people with a sword as well...

FITZZ wrote:No, there's not...which is one of the reasons I wanted to keep things less complicated...

And besides it's still an rp, and Fitzz can take the "lesser" (figure of speech) wolfs into account.
I trust that Fitzz can do this.

And can i post my second char sheet? Seeing as everything i have is currently in that 'compile-post'?

ineptus astartes wrote:my character is a knight, thats about as different as you get. he howls and beats up people with a sword as well...

Not Really. Harlow's a cowboy, which is awesome.

so anyway, wich (for an order of wolf-kinghts) would be better?
were-knight, or luna knight?

sillyboy wrote:True, but there are just not that many variations in "Howl and beat up people with claws and fangs" classes you can have.

Same could be said for "Hiss and drain people with shark teeth" classes as well but Mordo seems to have been able to think of things...

TBH...The wargear idea doesn't really make a lot of sense to me besides defining exactly how powerful these custom (pew pew cannon and the flamethrower) are because players usually list what knid of weapons and stuff they have at the beginning and then later RP the receiving of new weapons and such...but whatever...

@ Fitzz...those were my thoughts pretty much...I like the idea of a Van Helsing esque stake crossbow thingy...but am having trouble coming up with anything else...:/

.... Do me a favor and wait on posting characters until I can run some sims and figure out for sure what I'm going to strip down and what I'm keeping, I'd hate for you ( or anyone) to make a character with weapons/powers/ what have you ...that doesn't make the cut.

Things look cool, I should write some fluff to help fit the mages in.

Seems a bit plain, try something a little vaguer or so...

Knights of the Fang

Knights of the Rose

Knights of the silver moon

Knights of the old republic.

....You know spruce it a bit up.

She has no powers and all the rest is stuff that originates from BM1....

But i'll wait. Besides i still need an answer from Mordo ....About the pm Fitzz sent you containing my idea. *Cough*Arl'nev*cough*

Vampires lend themselves to a bit more " variety" than wolves do...but that's fine...my main complaint was vamp varients/templates getting overblown a bit, I like Mordo's ideas for the most part...but some of the various templates were much like the others...no need to over complicate things.
I also agree to an extent about the wargear...though having some " extra spiffy" stuff and their giudelines is fine....my chief concern here will be new players looking for " optimized" load outs...if you follow...

... Luna-Knights??...please...god..tell me I'm not going to be dealing with another Lunar Brotherhood situation..

Chowderhead!

What about a bag/belt combo for Lycans that expands and contracts, and allows them to carry things while Wolfing it around.

no, it's more 'an order of werewolves created during the 100 years war to kill nrajha and kindred, IE, the French.' of course, more complicated than that.


all out, my PC is a 'villain' in the arthurian legends.

Time to get medieval on these mothafethers?

@ Ineptus...he kills Nrajah and he's a knight that is probably used to serving a king/queen...

Should fit right into Natasha's bunch...

... Because it makes them sound like BatMan...
Actually..I like the wolves the way they are....pure, vicious...simple...adding a few extra things here and there could work...but of all the "races" they're the ones I'm happiest with simply because their pretty straight forward and not overly complex.

So long as he fits into one of the established clans in one way or the other it should work...

So, as before, who's going to write the intro for Blood Moon III?
