I fully agree with your interpretation in this matter. But: Is this clarification really necessary? I think Joe's intention is pretty obvious. If a reader decides to go for the non-obvious alternative then he's obviously trying to cheat by finding loopholes in the rules.

Further to the previous mail, I actually don't think Joe's intention is all that obvious here! It could have been worded in a much better, less ambiguous way. I've never looked too closely at the NO rules before the last few months, so I've never noticed this ambiguity before.

Anyway, if you want to reword it then my proposal (which, me being not a native speaker, might be totally wrong) would be:

"For every adventure that you complete successfully in the New Order series [possessing/knowing/mastering/having the discipline of Grand Weaponmastery], you will gain proficiency with one additional weapon."

That's much better than my proposal, sure. Cheers! Escalated to Jon.
