Since we don't have a RPG forum yet and it looks like a new edition is years away I thought we could start a thread for resource material like we had at the old AEG forums. So here goes, I'll add to this post as more stuff gets posted in the comments.

Index of 4th Edition L5R Schools - we used to have a master list at the old AEG forums that was incredibly helpful, so thanks to Cristol.GdM for this! As far as I know it is up to date:

L5R Roll and Keep Probability Chart - great interactive probability chart

L5R RPG Page - not sure how long this will be up but AEG's RPG page still has 4th Edition Character Sheets and the Legacy of Disaster Adventure Module for free:

Heroes of Rokugan 3 Modules - a recently finished "living" role-playing Campaign. For those unfamiliar with "living" campaigns they are mostly played at major conventions where players new and old can play through a module and participate in an ongoing campaign. This one just concluded at this year's Gencon, and while I've only gotten to play in a handful of modules the Heroes of Rokugan crowd produce top notch adventures. Below are the modules to run it for your home game:

Heroes of Rokugan 2 Modules - another "living" campaign by the amazing folks of Heroes of Rokugan. This one concluded at Gencon 2010 and used the 3rd Edition of L5R and all the modules are available below:

Kaze no Shiro - Unofficial RPG Supplements - for years Kaze no Shiro has served as an archive for L5R stories and roleplaying resources. I can't say enough how thankful I am to the great group that run it and have preserved the history of the game we all love. I particularly recommend the Musha Shugyo RPG supplements, Isawa Nazomitsu's Challenge Focus Strike's and the adventures Mirror Mirror and Fortune's Lost by the guys at Tastes Like Phoenix. Most of these supplements come from older editions of the RPG but can be easily converted:

L5R Wiki - thanks to this group who run and update the wiki we have a massive collection of L5R lore which is a great resource material for the RPG:

Here's to hoping the RPG forums do reopen at some point so we can gather some of the homebrew stuff there, host it somewhere else and link it here...

Even if you are not using Heroes of Rokugan timeline, HoR modules are great way to start GMing.

I have some links to share too:

That's my hope as well, there is some great stuff in the Homebrew and Gamemaster forums.

I could not agree more. The first Heroes of Rokugan is equally amazing but are hard to find these days, I think I have most of the modules on a hard drive somewhere, if I can find them I'll put them up on a Dropbox.

Thanks! I'll add these to the list.

If you do find them, posting them would be very much appreciated! I never did manage to find/download them before they up and became so scarce --

Got a Roll and Keep Dice Roller there?

Lost the script for the last one I had.

Roll20, by the way, supports playing on 4th Edition. It's got a very nice editable character sheet which comes with easily usable macros for rolling stuff.

The L5RCM includes a diceroller and kazenoshiro has one on it's website:

Here are some adventures I gathered over the last two years:

There are numerous useful resources posted to pbp game forums in their, well, resource sections. Linking to these could be useful.

If no one else has done so in the near future, I'll head over and grab the links when I get back online.

I am waiting for the AEG forums to be up again to get a couple of schools and resources from there. Most notably a new version for the Bayushi Bushi School >.<.

Did they ever fix the character sheet? It was pretty wonky when it first came out.

What needed fixing? It has macros for rolls, allows you to adjust roll before making them (so if you want to roll Investigation/Intelligence instead of Investigation/Perception, you can quickly add "missing" dice), calculates most of the stuff on it's own (which might be annoying if you have some kind of technique that messes with formulas - for example, daidoji honor wounds)... Asking because we switched to it quite recently, because Roll20 maps are prettier than my excel maps.

I haven't ran into a situation where I would say "****, I wish we played using something else"; still, I use Roll 20 mostly for maps and easy tracking of stuff like enemy wounds and stuff.

Got a Roll and Keep Dice Roller there?

Lost the script for the last one I had.

http://orokos.com/ handles R&K dice well, with the formula Xd10o10kY (where X= rolled dice and Y= kept dice). Xd10r1o10kY for a skill with emphasis; Xd10o10 for raw trait and Ring rolls; Xd10 (dropping 'o10') for unskilled/unexploding rolls. Registration required, but at least it's free and saves your results.

Add me to the list of people hoping they do make the old forums readable again soon, though. It would be downright tragic for so many useful and creative resources to be flushed down the internet drain. (I was so certain I had a local backup of the thread with kanji conversions for all the Family names... but nope. )

I've saved up some of it, though wether or not they're accurate is another thing (as I can't read kanji). I copied these over years ago, so I have no idea who wrote these originally on the L5R forums.

Hida 飛騨 (flying grey horse)

Doji 道寺 (temple road)

Togashi 冬瓜子 (water-melon-child)

Akodo 阿古道 (nook-old-way)

Shiba 柴 (brushwood)

Bayushi 瑪雄志 (onyx-ambition)

Shinjo 神助 (help from gods)

Hantei 判定 (judgement)

A list of possible meanings to the Kami names (sadly, the kanji didn't copy over when I saved it the first time around)

Finally getting around to this after a busy few days-

Kiku Toshi Resource Forum

A forum from an old, finished forum game where my fellow GMs and I provided useful setting/fluff information. We were not the first ones to do so and a lot of what's there was created by other awesome GM types (You know who you are ). That said, there's a good chunk of info there that could prove useful for people wanting to expand upon some of the setting fluff.

Info includes a list of Fortunes, Teas of Rokugan, Flora and Fauna of the setting, and a few other things. I've found these pages useful numerous times. Hope everyone else enjoys too.

In that same vein, here's The Collected Sayings of Shinsei from the resources at 7Scions. As a friend put it, and I agree, this is one of those pages that we end up using and re-using at nearly every forum game. Super useful for finding pearls of wisdom for characters.
