So my choice is ...or death?

L5R tonight, and I was once again reminded first-hand of the obnoxious character mortality rate

How do you keep up with all this stuff? I'd need an intense manual, and I'd still be asking lots of "how does this work again?" questions.

It's just like playing in Harry Potter. There's some initial awkwardness in any new system, but once you get into character and get a feel for the system, it flows very organically.

Except for combat. Combat always brings everything to a grinding halt while people check what they can do under which circumstances and how much damage it will cause. There is much consulting of books and arguing over semantics but that's part of the charm. ;)
