I may have missed it, but do we have anything for Stag?

Oof, one more on equipment Vs Clan

Just noticed due to starting out as a Ronin I would be a Uni and Chai Magistrate without a horse. Any chance I could remedy that somehow? Maybe get one with some or all of those shiny 10 koku I get?

25 koku is a bit too much to reach :shock:
Yeah, sure. Expend the 10 and add it. It's important equipment for a Unicorn, so I'm willing to throw you a bone here.

Whooo nice! So one horse and no money to speak of, check! XD Thanks again!

Bah! Money! WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE, it didn't exist!

No, really. I'm still getting used to the idea.

Query: Where should Imperials consider themselves as residing as far as the board layout goes? Some of us have a bit of family life, and I somehow doubt the Imperial Suite was designed with lesser lights in mind.

Not yet. I'll work on it.

You have your own rooms in the palace. I'll make an area for that.

Daishos are a real thing now?

I mean, Katana and Wakizashi pairing as symbol/tools of the samurai.

They haven't risen to that much prominence, but they've been developed.

Not a question as such, but there's been a lot of concern regarding Player Events being tied to Influence Points, and people (myself included) expressing that it might be best to separate Influence from those Events. That way it will be less work for the GMs to approve of player-written event-mechanics, and more focus on making these events into social fun and RP opportunities (without the stress of trying to coordinate everything perfectly and trying to make it somewhat fair).

Thanks for letting me know. I'll take that into consideration, but redoing that, including the balance, would be a lot this close to the finish line. I'll see if there's time once I finish Clan Goals and writing the last events and scenes I need.

With all the information around, I might have missed it, but is there any sort of time skipping with the days, or is the game a snapshot of time spent in court? The production of craft and art normally takes some time, so it's a curiosity for playing Ume.

Uncertain if this is noted above--and if so, please let me know!--but do PCs have a starting Influence score?

No time skipping. This is a snapshot.

People can spend their Influence as they see fit, including giving it to others.

Can Imperial characters actually host events? If so, are there adjustments to scoring to compensate their "at home" advantage?
