The L5R RPG forum is gone.

Where can i find it, I have rule questions to ask but nowhere to post them.

Thanks and regards.

You can ask them here. This is currently as official as you will get in terms in forums... So ask ahead perhaps we can help.

Thread title almost gave me a heart attack. I thought that they annouced that RPG forum will never resurface and that all of the material there is gone forever RIP.

It is about exploding tens. Does the Initiative and the damage rolls explodes ?

Everything explodes by default, unless specific rule about specific roll forbids it. So, yes, Initiative and Damage Rolls explode due to this general rule, and because there is no specific rule forbiding them to do so.

remembers a 10k5(v) exploding for 92

Tea Ceremony roll =)

Remember that untrained rolls do not explode. If you were to roll Jiujutsu/Agility, but you don't have any ranks in the skill, your 10s will not explode and you cannot Raise or benefit from Free Raises. You can spend a Void Point to temporarily have the skill for one roll, for which you can gain all the benefits of being trained, including exploding dice.

Yes, that's a good example of specific rule forbidding exploding on specific kind of rolls.

Where's this announcement? I can't find it.

They didn't, He was just saying that the title was a bit misleading.

From the limited time I've been playing the RPG i understand there are advantages like: Sage, Soul of Artistry and Crab Hands, which unless i remember wrong say more or less whenever you make an unskilled check your considered rank 1 in that skill,though they don't cover everything. Sage i think covers lore checks, soul covers artisan skills and crab hands covers weapons. Sorry for rambling but with these advantages would my tens still explode within the areas covered by them?

Yes, having the advantage means your rolls in that category count as skilled instead of unskilled, i.e. your tens explode normally.
