"Seen Components" is an interesting term for spellcasting components...
Can we get a peek at the Spell Components section?

I think it was mentioned that was a replacement for Somatic. Like, it's basically the same thing, but the name change is used to indicate that you can't (easily?) hide your movement.
Hmm defensive property says we should see a shield rating after it, but we don’t see that on the lance. Cool property though!
I may be mistaken, but weren't there maneuvers that offer a better parrying option that do require your reaction? I imagine its to be able to stack with those and be sort of deflection specialist.
So how will this work again? The Kickstarter opens on 10/5 but when does it close? When is the first time we can actually download the finished pdfs?
November 5th. Standard one-month Kickstarter!

You're right. There definitely are some maneuvers. I know that the quarterstaff was one of the parrying weapons (thanks to the character sheets Morrus posted), and I imagine that most people who use quarterstaves are casters who don't get maneuvers. I don't know what the other parrying weapons are, of course, but at least some of them have to be martial-friendly.
Edit: Parrying Counter (2nd degree Rapid Current) is one mauever that also adds an expertise die (with reaction). So it's likely that you're right and parrying weapons are built to stack with such maneuvers. And getting +1d6 to your AC is nothing to sneeze at. If rapiers are a parrying weapon, then my swashbuckler duelist will be exceedingly cool. (Now, should I rebuild her as a rogue, even though her rougish skills are minimal, or go straight for fighter.)
