Hi,
I have about 20 house rules in the hopper right at the moment, but here are the rules I’ve actually implemented at my table.
-All samurai get a full daisho (katana and wakizashi). Courtier and Shugenja may elect not to carry the long sword at their discretion.
-all samurai of rank 30 + have a peasant servant. Samurai of rank 40 + have a number of servants equal to their rank, as well as a yojimbo.
-all samurai have a home, the quality of which is determined by their clan and status.
-targets who are prone have the TN to attack them lowered by 1, and the TN for their attacks raised by 1.
-targets attacked by a foe they are unaware of cannot defend against damage.
