I believe it was Belnia who said Monks will be squares in the other thread. I don't know Belnia or her credibility, but from her past posts she seems to be someone 'in the know'.
So this got me thinking.

Since I enjoy using my falchion A LOT wouldn't it be great if some of what you could do with the unarmed combat system could be used in conjunction with a weapon. I know that may sound contradictory but it would be cool if combos were tied to weapon use as well as unarmed attacks.

For instance, like kicking over an opponent and then jabbing him in the chest all in one move. Or grappling someone prone and then cutting the jugular.

I honestly would take ANYTHING posted by Belnia with a huge grain of salt. She has yet to even make a worthwhile post about monks. Your ideas, however, are sound, and from what I've seen, are being put into the unarmed combat system. Really cool stuff.

QFT. Belnia is a total n00b. She doesn't even have secret GM friend.

I don't know if you ate paint chips as a child, or if you're just a troll, but so far I've posted the only useful and official information on monks and Minor Mental here on these boards, straight out of the information provided at Simucon. (http://www.forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?t=34874)

Just because you can regurgitate some [completely changed] information from a seminar, does not mean you have posted anything useful. Trust me when I say the MnM list has COMPLETELY changed.

He's just upset at you for providing factual information that makes it harder for him to foist his bullshit. Happytimez is another facetious handle trying to get a rise with obviously made-up crap.

Your ideas are intriguing and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Monks can't have weapons. Not unless they were previously a knight and learned Equip Swords, then they can use swords. That is all my knowledge of monks.

Belnia's secret GM friend is so secret you didn't even know the GM existed! He does know a good deal if I may say so. I think trash talking is for n00bs.

Actually, I take it all back. After watching about 6 hours of hong kong kungfu flicks to kill my agonizing pain and insomnia I want monks to be a pure unarmed profession. We've got too many professions who use weapons, having something different would be cool if done well.

What's in is already in, dude. Basically, it's too late to turn back on ideas they've already coded. You'll be happy though, trust.

Yes... let me specifically post details that were told in complete confidence from a FRIEND. Sounds like a great way to sell someone out and lose a good friend. Great idea. All to prove something to YOU.

The only thing you've been proving to me and everyone else here, is how much of a tool you are and a worth of space here on the forums.

Had these of been my forums, you'd likely be banned by now...Not just by your silly registered name, but IP as well.

The idea that "HappyTimez" has some sort of inside track is the second funniest thing the PC has brought me tonight after a bot referencing my ex.

It's almost as awesome as Popsicles.

Eh whatever... I just hope and pray they make it fun, whatever, it might end up looking like. And that doesn't mean it has to WTFpwn everything and be so uber leet at least not neccesarily (if you make it so stupidly unviable and slow it'll kill it for most people).

I think what it means more is how many layers does the system have? Is it just: brawl <insert kungfu move>... numbers numbers blah blah then pump out ABC description. Or will there at least have (again hoping and praying) "street fighter IV level of depth", you know instead of half roll with analog joystick and mash buttons A B you have brawl <ABC> brawl <BC> brawl <CCC>. Thats the big question.

If monks don't come out by mid year as they stated again and again I really don't think they'll be coming out ever. I mean whats the delay on them now? 4, 5 years?

What the hell? If you cared about any of that, you wouldn't have opened your mouth in the first place. "HAI GUYZ, I HAVE A SPECIAL FRIEND THAT KNOWS THIS STUFF!". Why even bother even mentioning it in the first place? And yes, if you're going to say something, provide proof. Until then, STFU.
