Nice! I’ve always liked that sword and didn’t even think to look for it. I have a couple of the LoTR from the Noble collection from back in the day, Thor’s hammer, and need to add this one as some point.
I’m curious now how or if they’d bring back martial techniques, like iron palm, tiger claw and such that did more damage than normal unarmed strike. Would it just be for fighters and monks or be a feat. I’d have to get out my old 1e/2e since it’s been a while but in 3e were they feats?
Now that you mention it and like most art, if you scrutinize it, you see things you might have missed when looking at the totality of it. Now I can’t unsee Skylla’s left foot pose…is she wearing heels or standing on her tiptoes…but either way, it’s still better than most Wayne Reynolds feet :)
I like the art and plan on picking it up regardless of the cover art but it is a plus for this one. Side note, it’s blurry but is the MSRP showing 49.99? Nice if so!
I enjoy seeing the Shaw brothers mentioned, some of my favorite Kung fu movies growing up and probably why I was a ninja or samurai at Halloween!
I agree with @Bedrockgames, those would be low magic, then the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon being in the middle of the other end with Condor...
I was reading the recently released World Of Kensei by RiotMind and it has a good Asian themed “feel” to it. The art helps with the evocative Kung fu elements, for me at least. Worth checking it out if someone is interested.
We tried a Kara-Tur adventure back with 1e/2e and struggled making it feel different with the honor system but being that young I think we were really trying to emulate those old school king-fu movies in feel. Had fun with it none the less.
