Re: Weapon Master Broadsword?

I think all the confusions arise because of the usage of the word "broadsword": it can mean either a skill name or a weapon name. To clarify:
Further, if I buy a Weapon Master that encompasses weapons classified into one specific entry in the Weapon Tables (e. g., Weapon Master (Late Katana)), how much does it cost?

So WM: Bastard Sword [20] works. I don't know whether that would include any weapons other than Bastard Swords and Thrusting Bastard Swords.

Re: Weapon Master Broadsword?
The cheapest one, one specific weapon. It will definitely cover all entries listed as Bastard Sword under Broadsword and Two-Handed Sword. This was mentioned in the first reply, but the topic then diverged rather rapidly.

Re: Weapon Master Broadsword?
If you, as a GM, want to allow it (which there is really not reason not to), it should clearly cost between 15-20 points, or an average of 17.5. Since point costs round up, it would cost 18 points.

Also, charging 20 points for "bow," covering everything with the word "bow" in the name (except, of course, "crossbow"), is fine. And charging 35 points for "sword," covering everything with the word "sword" in the name, is fine. Both values make sense to me. But we still clearly don't have a strict rule. This might have to elude a strict definition. I think "one distinctive weapon, and any other weapon similar enough that, in the GM's view, it's used in exactly the same way," might have to be as good as it gets.

If they have WM:Kusarigama then they can use it as a kusari and a kama at the same time with both skills. If it has a hand to hand and thrown form you get WM with both as well, so you could get WM:spear with the spear skill the staff skill and the thrown weapons spear skill. |
