Thanks for the swift and all covering answer to my last question here
are some more.
1/ Battle Pilgrims of the Grail Reliquae
Does the Reliquae's attacks come from the 4 pilgrims carrying it or are
they "extra" meaning that the pilgrims(A1) keep their original attack
and add the 4 from the Relique?
2/ Can a brettonian knight use two weapons instead of shield/weapon? And
if so can they do this at will during a battle or should it be fixed
which one beforehand?
I.e A KoR with two swords (A2)
3/ Can a knight(only characters i suppose) make use of, and get the S
and A bonus(two weapons) from, a lance and a special weapon like a
morning star? And of course retain the two weapon bonus throughout the
encounter?
Along the lines: A knight charges with lance and morning star. Lance
ends up in the belly of some fierce and ugly looking foes or breaks(like
wooden lances are prone to). Morning star plows through some more ugly
looking foes. Knight discards his lance, swings his morning star, draws
his sword and gladly chops away singing "O 'Ye pile of bashed and
beheaded ...."
I.e. A paladin with a morning star, sword and lance. (A4 S5 charging)
4/ While I'm on the subject of shields
The list on p.64 in the rules lists some different armour save depending
on equipment. A "rider with shield and heavy armour riding an armoured
mount" has armour save 2+. Since a shield normaly subtracts one from the
armour save is this so for "rider with shield and heavy armour riding an
armoured mount" as well, giving a such without shield a save of 3+?
5/ What are the limitations posed on a Bret. Battle Standard Bearer with
respect to weapons and shield?
My first thought on this is that a BSB hauls around a huge banner and
the rules that apply to Standard Bearers in normal units cant apply. Or?
I suppose that a paladin worthy of being standard bearer for the whole
army has some skill he might be able manage a shield on the same arm as
the standard while swinging a sword with the other. Lance? In the end I
would probably opt that the BSB cannot use shield or lance. Thoughts?
Well is suppose that's it. Need I say that I'm fairly new at this and I
dont have alot of people to play and argue finer points with. At least
not experience ones, so dont flame me to hard for whatever you might
flame me for. Anyway, I'll go soak myself in bromium flame retardant.
