REMAINING
ISSUES<http://www.projectaon.org/en/Errata/VoyageOfTheMoonstone>:

(er)    Grand Master Disciplines:       "you are skilled in the use of
one
of the weapons listed in the Equipment section." Are you _really_ limited
to
Quarterstaff, Bow, Dagger, Sword, or Axe? [so: How should this be
re-worded?]

Should we add the list of weapons illustration to the Equipment
section under the "Equipment—How to use it... Weapons" section?

It would work, but is it the most elegant solution to the problem? I suppose
adding a sentence at the bottom of the How to Use/Weapons section that says
something like, "A Kai Grand Master might find the following Weapons during
his adventures." but worded better, and then the weapons.png illustration,
could solve this issue. Maybe.


Or should we just put the weapons list in a footnote explaining the
oddity of the new rules and suggesting that the reader could feel good
about ignoring them? :)
I am MUCH happier about this being a footnote! I can see the underlying logic in the original wording, even if it seems overly restrictive.
How about something like: "It seems somewhat strange that a Grand Master is only allowed to choose to be proficient in one of the few Weapons listed in the Equipment section. In view of the unprecedented nature of this rule, a Grand Master might decide that it is acceptable to be proficient in any of the ten Weapons that can be found in the New Order series." 

And then add the weapons.png file from the GM series below this.
Any thoughts on rewording the footnote? Bear in mind that this will need to be added to all 8 of the NO series, so keeping it somewhat vague is a bonus. ;-) 


Are we only waiting on these issues and perhaps a short comment period?


This is the only remaining outstanding (reported) issue! :-)
