Hello All,

I heard tales of two Brute Squad types but I can't find them in any of the books I own. Does anyone have the text of their abilities?

Zealot

Tenacious

I'm also interested in any other Brute Squad types people have come across that are not in the main book.

Thanks!

I was wondering if any one had any guidance on what is a suitable challenge for a party of three new players, one duelist.

What sort of level of Brute Squads or Villains should they be facing? To be an easy, average or difficult challenge?

Ok, so PN gives us the Numaneri with their traditions of courage and glory and cool warrior aesthetic and then gives us BUTKIS for their brute squads.  Personally, I think that's a criminal (though small) oversight.  It's hard for me to imagine a legion of Spatran-lite brutes without some cool ability I can turn on with a Danger Point.  And swordsmen or assassin seems...pedestrian to me.

So what brute squad abilities do you think lend themselves best to numaneri squads?

QUESTION 

So first, short question: Villains have no skill ranks, so if you make a duelist villain, how many wounds does he inflict on a Slash/Parry maneuver? (As those say you inflict wounds equal to your Weaponry skill.)

Hey everyone!

Based upon the conversation in this thread http://www.7thsea2e.com/port/forum/duelists-vs-brutes, I have made the following house rule.

Brute Squads Strength is reduced by spending Raises not by dealing Wounds. A new Duelist Maneuver has been added and all Duelists get it:
