after comparing O Ken Wa versus rifts Kendo:

O Ken has +5 Strike, +5 Parry, +7 Dodge, +3 Initiative (because of Iai-Jutsu), -5 Pull Punch, and a crit on a 15 instead of an 18.

As well as two more techniques available. one that can give +6 Initiative.

I'm Lost. cuss if I took Kendo in a HU campaign, seems I'd be underpowered. And Vice Versa.

Am I missing a conversion?


i dont have ninjas and superspies or rifts china yet so i dont know the hand to hand your comparing kendo to or is o ken wa a class and not a hand to hand skill ?
