Or should we just put the weapons list in a footnote explaining the

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."
Given the rules for the previous Lone Wolf books, it seems odd 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, you might decide that it is
acceptable to be proficient in any of the ten Weapons that the Kai
typically train to use.
And then add the weapons.png file from the GM series below this.
After this and a couple of corrections from Anders, we should be ready
to publish this. Simon, when you're able to get a fresh version
posted, I think we can get by with a one-day sanity check and then
publish. I think it's time to move on. :)
