I had to restart, forgot wtf is going on when I had to make the big choice. So their first adventure when they have to talk to the smith about the things that attacked the town, the horseshoe is upside down. Not only should it be the other way around so "it's luck doesn't run out", it wouldn't be odd for the superstitious peasants to blame him for their problems for letting the luck drain out.

It also always makes me guffaw whenever the whole: Ermagerd, you can't drink, you're not 21.\o/ bit comes up. I will always laugh at countries that figure it's ok to send an 18 year old out to kill or be killed, but fuck you, you're going to be in really big shit if you drink "underage".
I also recognized this pic. I read the books waaaaayyyyy back when. But I completely forget their names. It was the book cover. Some ppl hiding from demons in some warded bunker? If I'm remembering things right. Back in the 80's or early 90's. Used to have them even, but they were from my first batch of books when I was dumb (young) enough to sell them. I'll never do that again. IS it actually from that book? And if so, what's it's name?

Alright. The whole two arrows on a bow thing. Utter. Bullshit. Putting two arrows on a bow doesn't give you twice as much dmg potential. It gives you the exact same potential, SPLIT between two arrow. Almost as if bows have a set poundage. And the force they transfer to an arrow is the force they transfer. And every arrow you put on the string DIVIDES that force between them. So congrats. An ability that lets you fire arrows at half power.
And give these ppl sheaths for their weapons, and shields for god's sake. Forearms make shit shields. And can be dropped if you need the offhand for some reason, so no, that's not a good reason to not have one. (never mind forearm strapping that leaves your hand free)
