How does it feel to know that the shitty jap katanas were inferior to western knight swords in every possible way?

>> No.10623910

That's it. I'm sick of all this "Masterwork Bastard Sword" bullshit that's going on in the d20 system right now. Katanas deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.

I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine katana in Japan for 2,400,000 Yen (that's about $20,000) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can even cut slabs of solid steel with my katana.

Japanese smiths spend years working on a single katana and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest blades known to mankind.

Katanas are thrice as sharp as European swords and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a longsword can cut through, a katana can cut through better. I'm pretty sure a katana could easily bisect a knight wearing full plate with a simple vertical slash.

Ever wonder why medieval Europe never bothered conquering Japan? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined Samurai and their katanas of destruction. Even in World War II, American soldiers targeted the men with the katanas first because their killing power was feared and respected.

So what am I saying? Katanas are simply the best sword that the world has ever seen, and thus, require better stats in the d20 system. Here is the stat block I propose for Katanas:

(One-Handed Exotic Weapon)
1d12 Damage
19-20 x4 Crit
+2 to hit and damage
Counts as Masterwork

(Two-Handed Exotic Weapon)
2d10 Damage
17-20 x4 Crit
+5 to hit and damage
Counts as Masterwork

Now that seems a lot more representative of the cutting power of Katanas in real life, don't you think?

tl;dr = Katanas need to do more damage in d20, see my new stat block.

That's it. I'm sick of all this "Masterwork Bastard Sword" bullshit that's going on in the d20 system right now. Katanas deserve much worse than that. Much, much worse than that.

I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine katana in Japan for 120 Yen (that's about $1) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can't even cut wooden boards with my katana.

Japanese smiths spend years working on a single katana and fold it up to a million times to produce some of the biggest pieces of shit known to mankind.

Katanas are barely half as sharp as European swords and half as hard for that matter too. Anything a longsword can cut through, a katana can't cut through at all. I'm pretty sure a katana would break trying to cut a knight wearing full plate with any kind of slash.

Ever wonder why feudal Japan never bothered conquering Europe? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined Knights and their Oakeshott types X through XXII of destruction. Even in World War II, Japanese soldiers targeted the men with the mamelukes first because their killing power was feared and respected.

So what am I saying? Katanas are simply the worst sword that the world has ever seen, and thus, require worse stats in the d20 system. Here is the stat block I propose for Katanas:

(One-Handed Exotic Weapon)
1d4 Damage
x2 Crit
-2 to hit and damage
Can never count as Masterwork

(Two-Handed Exotic Weapon)
1d6 Damage
x2 Crit
-1 to hit and damage
Can never count as Masterwork

Now that seems a lot more representative of the cutting power of Katanas in real life, don't you think?

tl;dr = Katanas need to do much less in d20, see my new stat block.

I have a question about dice.

If I roll 2d6, that's 2 to 12, right? But are the numbers all equally likely?

I mean, I could get 5 as (1, 4), (2, 3), (4, 1), or (3, 2).
I could get 6 as (1, 5), (2, 4), (3, 3), (5, 1), (4, 2), or (3, 3).
But then I can only get 12 as (6, 6) or (6, 6).

I really don't know anything about statistics. Please help.

>However, the straight sides don't slice as well as curved sides.

What a load of bull. The cutting power of a sword is determined by the edge geometry, not by the curve of the blade. A curved blade makes it merely easier to make a clean cut.

Why are those pictures always from people who have no idea about swords?

That's it. I'm sick of all this "Heresy" bullshit that's going on in the d20 system right now. Spehss Marheens deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.
I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine Spehss From the Emprah for 30000000 psyker souls (that's about $10) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can even cut slabs of solid steel with my Spehss Marheen.
The Spehss Marheen Chapters spend years working on a single Spehss Marheen Scout and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest Spehss Marheens known to mankind.
Spehss Marheens are thrice as sharp as Chaos marine and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a Chaos Marine can cut through, a Spehss Mahreen can cut through better. I'm pretty sure a Spehss Marheen could easily bisect a knight wearing full plate with a simple vertical slash.

Ever wonder why medieval Europe never bothered conquering the imperium? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined Spehss Marheens and their Speech Inpidiments of destruction. Even in World War II, American soldiers targeted the men with Spehss Marheens first because their killing power was feared and respected.

So what am I saying? Spess Marheens are simply the best sword that the world has ever seen, and thus, require better stats in the d20 system. Here is the stat block I propose for

They both wont make a cut if you don't make a slice move. It's still easier with curved blade since all you have to do is pulling the sword back. The straight blade requires more skill.
