Re: [dq-rules] Re: CWT Draft: Military Use Weapons

Rupert,

Don't worry, I don't anyone is going to tell you to get lost.  I'm not currently playing DQ either, but I still enjoy talking about it.  (I guess I'm under the delusion that someday I'll get to play again.)  I found your insight to be extremely helpful.

I think I might of opened a can of worms that didn't need to be opened when I suggested rules for pikes, etc.  It would appear that a pike and certain other weapons are practically usesless (or at least not as effective) when used by an individual.  Therefore, one solution would be to leave them as is in the CWT, but donote them with a footnote that references military formation rules.  Of course, those rules would have to be created. 

It also sounds to me like the type (i) pole weapons should remain as drafted by Edi, in light of the fact that their training involves quarterstaff-style attacks.
