So it had rule changes? That might explain why some things in the original FM Screen were wrong. (Starting over completely on that one anyway - can't legally copy it - but can certainly read it to look for errors.)
So shooting from the hip here, what if a staff strike is an automatically succeeding magic blow that's incompatible with any other use of the staff, whatever its shape, at the same time? It would be learned with the Staff spell.
Are there any other rules errata'd in the Codex that we should consider real issues?

Hi Steve,
If you want to eliminate the staff - quarterstaff combo, I would suggest that you say that the magic makes staffs fragile. (They break on a 14+ say if you use them like a club.) That would explain why wizards tap with staffs rather than clobber people with them.
I'll start a new post that discusses the FAQ in the Codex.
Warm regards, Rick.
