I had the idea of having a Far East type faction, and including monks as a major part. Here was my idea for the basic "monk" unit:

Initiate:
HP: 36 Moves: 6 Alignment: Lawful Required XP: ?40?

Initiates are the most common warriors of this faction. Having trained behind monastery walls for most of their lives, they are adept in unarmed combat, dodging blows and delivering powerful strikes. They have trained to be resistant to the elements, but they sacrifice the protection of armor for mobility. They have trained in many natural settings, as well as in their monasteries, but don't fight well in placed where their enemies can hide or their mobility is reduced, such as towns, swamps, and mountains.

ATTACKS:

Name Type Strikes Range Special

Punch Impact 6-3 Melee First Strike

Flying Kick Impact 14-1 Melee Charge

Resistances:

Attack Type Resistance

blade -20%
cold 20%
fire 20%
holy 20%
impact 10%
pierce -30%

Terrain Modifiers:

Terrain Defense Movement
Castle 50% 1
Sand 40% 1
Snow 30% 2
Cave Wall 50% -
Shallow Water 20% 2
Forest 40% 2
Grassland 50% 1
Hills 50% 2
Mountains 30% 3
Deep Water 20% -
Village 30% 1
Cave 40% 1
Swamp 20% 2

If you want, i can post my ideas on 4 other far east units, i haven't worked on lv2 versions or higher that much

I don't think that kind of language is appreciated on these boards Kafka. Well, not so much the language, as the sentiment...

Kafka, don't make posts like this again. The enmity they cause defeats anything constructive that you happened to be trying to say.

well, that's great, but I already explained myself and appologized. You're a little late on that one bub. I don't mean to be offensive, it was an inappropriate thing, even with the self-censorism, which doesn't excuse it. However, i do believe that it emphasized my point, not overshadowed it. I do appologize and i won't do it again. However, shut up, I already appologized.........

It didn't. This forums users are sensitive to idiocy and tend to be automatically in disagreement with any text that follows it.

I think an unarmed figgter would only bee good if he was a grappler. and then he'd have to be useless against some units for it to make sense. the mauler for example would HAVE to be stronger.
those of you who have leanrned martial arts know what I mena for units he would have to be weak to.
and i think that swearing actually can help to make a point in some cases although that doesn't seem to apply to this forum.
no I'm not defending him thats just my opinion.
Oh no look out its a ray gun.
You should move to avoid the rays
the rays are coming out of the gun
if you are hit by the rays
you will be shot by the rays
the rays are fast so you should be fast to
can you win against the fast rays from the gun?

You @**, you stupid dumb***. D&D didn't make that, nor is that even the case in D&D, because clerics can use edged weapons there.
Well, in 3.5, Clerics aren't (by default) proficient with any edged weapon larger than a dagger... That basically leaves them restricted to said daggers, as well as staves, maces, crossbows, and spears. I believe that they can gain martial weapon proficiency (e.g. swords) through multi-classing or (if memory serves) expending a feat.

However, in 2nd edition it's explicitly stated that Clerics can't use edged weapons. An explaination of such:
The rule, "Clerics can't use edged weapons," was placed in the game to prevent clerics from being as powerful as fighters and being able to cast spells as well, thus making fighters less than desirable to play in comparison to clerics - at least while low in level.
No idea how it worked in 1st edition, sadly.

Back to the discussion at hand...

About the clerics they are proficient with all simple weapons which includes short sword at least and probably a few other bladed weapons, with most gods having bladed weapons as there favored weapon,

Now onto the faction Kafka has been making of the east. The first unit seems to have an ok amount just in seeing himself, but I belive before we can go debating this fully the rest of the faction at least the lv ones must be shown to the world.
May the drakes bloody kill you all.

Well, no, actually...
http://www.d20srd.org/srd/equipment/wea ... pleWeapons is a list of what falls under 'simple weapons'... Short swords are listed under martial weapons. It's either a Sickle or a Dagger for simple, edged weapons (unless you count spears as "edged").

Last post in this thread for me.
