Zanshin - NEW DECKS

[Sangennaru]

My associated agreed, so it's official!

Duel of Honor: Zanshin!

We decided to remove the english "u" from Honour, though


Do anyone knows if there's any copyright problem with that?
Cheers

[Mr. Peabody]

Why remove the 'u'?

[Sangennaru]

Why remove the 'u'?

Dunno, seemed a bit too britannic... But still we have time to choose!

anyway, i'll do a couple of matches today too!

[Sangennaru]

The first beta deck is released!

I think that "Honour" with a "u" would work for most anywhere but the USA, including Canada...

I'll talk with my partner, i'll try to convince him!

Tonight i'll prepare a deck or two more, and tomorrow there will be a heavy betatesting with the fellow LAFer FramFramson!

[Sir Barnaby Hammond-Rye]

honour without a "u" would be illiterate. 

[Sangennaru]

Ahahaha, ok ok, you've convinced me!

Meanwhile, does anyone want to take a look at the alpha ruleset? The deck up there might have a bit more meaning this way! ^_^

EDIT: The ruleset is now under further developement. I'll post a new version soon, this one is now obsolete, therefore it has been deleted.

I suggested these based on the authors/titles of  classic fechtbuchs or martial arts manuals that the reenactor crowd are using to re-discover the real techniques of swordplay.

Having trained in martial arts but never with non modern weapons this is really interesting thank you. I don't know as much about hema, Wma etc as I would like.

[Sangennaru]

That's extremely interesting, SBRPearce! I'll surely take a look on those!

First, I've to make the samurai one working, but even for my personal interests i'm really going to find those manuals!


EDIT: That was easy:

Hello everyone!

Zanshin is slowly developing, and i've now a more complete and working ruleset!

I'm currently working on a more intuitive graphic (although i'd love to keep the minimalist yet elegant look of the previous one), soon i'll post new pics!

Meanwhile i'm enjoying some really fast-paced duels with friends. Today i was almost cut in half, yet i managed to strike a final blow that unfortunately had no luck.

cheers
Jack
