Re: Big Problem - Unbalanced random events

Well, I don't want to sound like there's an easy answer to this question, but maybe something to consider for the population events is to change them to fixed amounts. Starting provinces start with...

Re: A Design Question for the, well, Designers...

First, to Phil. While I'm not trying to start a fight, I belive M:tG is the 'best CCG of all time'. L5R can only hope to have the R&D that WotC has.

Second, yes, I'm planning on making an L5R...

Well, um, I don't have the impressive rap sheets like you guys do, but I do think that one of the funniest afflictions I've seen was on a Great Spider:

Re: Air 9 bless: useless?

Well, while the suggestions are good, may I suggest that perhaps a better way to 'fix' the Blood-9 blessing might be to enhance the power of Curses? Not directly, perhaps, but indirectly.

Re: Use for R\'lyeh void summons ?

Just an FYI, if something has a probability of 5%, it does _not_ have an expected value of 20. IIRC, the standard Expected Value formula is .7/p, where p is the probability of the event. Therefore,...

While I find all of this intriguing, unfortunately I know nothing of 'real' computer programming. However, I would be willing to try to work out 'base values' for units.

Re: Jotunheim:Utgard AAR

Hi. I've been reading this _very educational_ AAR, and I actually had a few questions about your not-so-early research.

First, it appears you rushed to Conjuration 6 and Construction 4. While I...

Re: Walkthru ?

If I can get a copy of it in Japanese, I should be able to translate it. Don't think it'll show up on the computer I'm on, though.

Re: Luck/Order scales after 2.06 Patch

That's a good point, Norfleet, and not one I had considered.

However, I would think that low dominion is 'its own reward'. If you choose a 3 Dominion and bad scales, and I have an 8 or 9 Dominion...

Regarding Admin value and gold production, I was under the impression (having read it somewhere) that a Fort added (Admin/2)% to the gold income of a province. Is this not the case?

Re: Magic Scale is too weak. Why?

I have to echo Pocus here. The Magic scale exactly what it 'should' do, IMO. It drastically increases your research speed and the effectiveness of your spells in combat (by saturation alone, if...

Re: Wondering if people would be interested...

Aldin is correct. Let's say you have an Oracle (base Dominion 4) and an Archmage (base Dominion 1, 30 points). For the Oracle to have a Dominion of 6 costs 21 points. For the Archmage to have the...
