... They would _never_ sell to the Sartarite rebels! That would be treason! OTOH, selling to the same merchants who have bought their bows, in the past, is not...
According to the game being run by Lev Lafayette, it was due to a tame Rubble Runner dropping a dwarven grenade in its ear, thus blowing its head off. ...
Jane Williams caught me in one of the rare weeks away from the computer... ... For massed defensive actions, self bows or composite bows with shorter staves...
... Aargh, the horror! ... Shorter? I'd seen the nomad bows as being pretty short. I've a got a few pictures of this bow in use, have one at random... ...
Jane Williams ... Still continuing. My computer has strange episodes of heat death... ... And that gives nice targets for Lunar field engines... ... For massed...
... Isn't one of the advantages of a composite bow the greater draw length for the same bow size? ... This reminds me of the demonstration of I saw of this...
donald: Yes, recurve bows reduce the stave length for the same draw length. Most pay for this by offering less lateral stability and less clean release because...
... I'm not sure how to translate that into actual effectiveness and it may be biased by the view that the bow was a peasant's weapon which could kill a noble....
Is it an effort generated by this group?? I didn't note any mention this was coming up. Jeff posts here as well, so I can't think why we wouldn't have had a...
... No. The Issaries project goes back a few years and when it was first mentioned this group project rather ran out of steam. In many ways it's a pity because...
Rob ... This group's findings apparently aren't involved, other than offering some subconscious influence. ... If it is formed after any single person's house...
... I have always been a great fan of Greg's vision of the Orlanthi. He has a great feeling for myth, and he broadly portrays them in a heroic vein which I...
... IIRC, it didn't so much run out of steam as pause out of courtesy to Jeff, who said he was about to produce some Heortling history that would impact WW....
... Don't be so sure Jane, there are lots of us I think that feel the same way. We dont all treat Glorantha as an exercise in 'creative exclusivity'. Regards,...
... Whitewall is scheduled to have a draft finished by the end of the year at the latest. It is the next book after Pavis: Gateway to Adventure (which we...
... I'm sorry Jeff, I don't take schedules on projects which aren't even at draft stage seriously. I recall seeing the completed text of one of the Western...
... Although this has been the position since at least King of Sartar where we learnt that Sartar was colonized by exiles from Heortland. So they were the same...
... Yes, but I would query whether it was more 'fun' thus desirable. I hadn't really though about the emergence of the Aeolians as the distinct culture...
... Subjective I'm afraid so we can't argue it and reach anything useful. ... Not quite. The Aeolians are the 'Western' culture who rise under the Pharoah and...
... I know the first time I tried to figure out how they "worked", I was using RQ Sorcery rules for the purpose. They've been known about for a long time, and...
... I never thought I'd be doing such a thing, but... moderator hat on, Ian is quite right, this is the Whitewall list, not a Western-publications list. Who is...
... Rob: I think you are putting words in my mouth Ian, and I find your tone is unnecessarily snippy. My view is just on what I see as an outsider. Remember I...
Hi folks I applaud the announcement of a Whitewall project, and look forward to its publication; even though I realise, based on recent experience, that we...
Hi John, ... I don't see any of that in the MD pipeline. In fact I see the opposite, I see a strong emphasis on campaign material and playability. Look for...
Hi John ... This is heartening news!! Look forward to this John. Any help I could be in whatever capacity then I shall surely offer my support! Cheers, Rob...
... And would have railroaded the players far more, too, and relegated them to the boring, cannon-fodder, bits of the story. I got a quick skim through Gregory...
