Ethnic Cool Weapons, What's the Point?

[scc]

For the Legendary Katana while it has many of advantages of being Fine what I'm getting is that it doesn't get all of them in the text, people are just saying it does?

And as for the Welsh Longbow, the way things work you can't just give it bodkin points or any of the options prom LT 1, they don't increase AD, they simply set it, so no benefit from using them.

Quick question in that system how do you do minuses from weapon damage? Is it -0.33 to ST so a Thr -1 stiletto would be (ST*0.67)/10 or 20 depending on going with cinematic or realistic.


(I've heard this system referenced before but I went looking for the the original article in Gaming ballistic but couldn't find it)

AD is always additive. Penetrating weapon and breaking blow and Coup De Jarnac all stack. Why on earth wouldn't a weapon and ammo modifier?

Multiplicative, actually.
