    Shield sizes

    That's an interesting perspective. The part about head shots seems like victim blaming. "They ask for it because I can't target anything else!" It's only a symptom of new/less skillful fighters and vertical chop/slot shots in general, not much to do with the shield. As for if head shots are a...

    Shield sizes

    I noticed the shield sizes under version A have a large discrepancy between circular and square. A 26" round has an area of ~531, whereas a 36" x 24" rectangle has an area of 864. Is this intentional? It would seem more fair to have the circular shield be 32" diameter (~805 square inches). As...

    Armor

    Armor

    I beg to differ. I'd opt for foam armor/arcane armor at 80% of the benefit for 0% of the downsides every time. 60+lbs is a lot. Movement restriction is a lot. I doubt you'd see otherwise. As for the standard level of armor based on character card disconnected from the rep, that's an idea. I...

    Armor

    I don't buy the money aspect. A player that has more irl money can still buy more power via magical items, xp blankets, etc. As for the armor value increasing based on armor class for real value, it's simply because I don't understand why the stronger armor types are disproportionately punished...

    Armor

    I agree that the doubling option would add a lot of bloat to armor point values, which is why I personally prefer the method of reducing faux values. As for the latex vs boffer thing, it's not quite the same. An equivalent argument would be the use of real swords versus foam boffers. That can't...

    Armor

    First off, let me say that I can appreciate a few ideas with the armor changes: 1) Higher potential armor value is a great thing to me. Armor is encumbering and I want to have a better reason to wear it. I was disheartened my first few events to see the difference between power that actual...

    Seeking a skilled armor smith

    Dearest friends, In my recent travels, I've found I could stand a heavier suit of armor than my current set of lamellar to better exploit my strengths as a warrior who prefers to be in the thick of things. As such, I'm interested in a suit that is capable of withstanding an ice storm. If you...

    Castle Event Room Reservations

    I assume if we plan to stay in one of the mass bunk rooms, there will be more than enough space and no specific reservation is necessary?
