It’s worse in Pirate Borg. While the Swashbuckler class works well, and Presence being a key stat for ranged attacks tickles me, the sole ranged weapons are gunpowder weapons. While knives are very serviceable under the system, the system really cares about being tripping ugly pirates doing questionable things. Cudjo just isn’t a good fit. #PirateBorg

#cudjointtrpg So, continuing with yesterdays explorations, we move on to 7th Sea. Which we have to log as a failure. Most of the character is easily built, although he ends up way more of a flirt under this system.

However, combat really cares about fencing schools, and while as an afterthought, knives are kinda bundled up with firearms, the system doesn’t really care about them. While there may be a supplement that cares more, knife throwing is just a so so option. #7thSea

I should work on other games late, but this is all I had time for today.

Remember, as long as you are having fun, it doesn’t matter how ‘bad’ your character is. Just laugh it off like Cudjo would, and have fun!

It’s a close miss. While there is a magic throwing blade available, the rules overall kinda just pretend throwing weapons don’t really exist. While backgrounds exist and cover the skill end well, the ability distribution is a little lighter than I would really like. Also, the sneaky type of class is a spellcaster, which isn’t the right fit.

You can do it, but it is not the same fantasy. Sorry #daggerheart

Draw Steel : Passes the test very well. You end up building him as an outlaw tactician. Game doesn’t punish throwing daggers as such, so it’s a viable option, and while we are not an all out rogue, we have all the right skills to be an acrobatic performer. Well done, Draw Steel!

It’s time for “Will Cudjo be effective in this system?”, an occasional check on if my favorite character from a pirate film can be effective in a fantasy RPG.

My offering today is just a little goldmine hidden in a slightly underrated film. I actually was amazed when I learned that it even had words, but this is the best version, really.

The people who don’t view housing as a human right are those who believe they will always have housing.

They can’t fathom becoming disabled, losing their savings or their support network.

They can’t comprehend having everything ripped away from them.

They think they’re the exception.

They’re not.

People don’t plan for homelessness or disability.

It just takes one accident, illness or stroke of bad luck.

We all need and deserve a safety net.
