Re: Martial arts for the man-at-arms

I love the information in the thread, but even still, I keep reading the title as "marital arts for the man-at-home." :)

It's the commonplace 'bronze is an inferior material' rule. Like you find in huge numbers of computer games, or on page 275 in Characters for that matter.

It's called Trudvang and it's 362 pages of fluffy goodness about a world inspired by Swedish folktales. I doubt that there's any material in English.

Just too bad they don't believe in using editors so there are sentence fragments and bad Swedish all over the places. GURPS has spoiled me, I suppose. (They 'open-source' their editing, putting texts on the net and asking their readers to proofread and edit. Don't do this, SJG, it doesn't work.)

Edit: That said, the fluff is very, very good. I haven't been this inspired by a world-book in a long, long time.
