I, personally, think that it would be cool to have some new classes My only idea ATM is a 'Samurai', who are unable to go into Coward tactics mode, and have a high chance of critical hits. They would also have a new skill, 'Foriegn Weaponry'. There would be some weapons that not everybody would know - for example, a bo staff could be called and 'Odd Staff' unless you identify it or have the Foriegn Weaponry skill. A few weapons of this type could be 'Odd Flails' (nunchakus), 'Odd Swords' (katanas), and 'Odd Daggers' (katars) Monks should also get the Foriegn Weaponry skill.

Any other ideas?

That kind of class would be VERY different from the others using different weapons and such? Other than from the fact that a samurai would be pretty much an assassin(who has a powerful backstab and find weakness and get's a bonus to critical hits).

It's nice to get new ideas and all but you have to admit that the races/classes are pretty well designed and adding something new would pretty much:
a)be almost a copy of a different race/class
b)be something totally different which would require some total revamp of game code and some major changes and which really wouldn't even belong to adom.

That's just me. But there's always the possibility of ratlings/kobolds and miners.


If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

i suggest a class "leader" (or negotiator), who can _tame_ humanoids/demons/pixies (but not pets) by chatting, giving $$$, signing contracts...etc.

Samurai would be the pinnacle of honor - no backstabbing, no coward tactics, etc. They would have a bonus to foriegn weapons, the class ability to challenge things to a deul, and possibly a chance to parry and counter attacks. Another variation on the 'Fighter' theme, basically, but as different from the average fighter as a barbarian.
