Did he mean it that way in the actual specific instance? Unreliable usage is kind of unreliable.The girdle use of q.v. is not quite the same as the use of q.v. in erase.In erase it says it can be used against glyphs of warding q.v. and then specifies in glyphs of warding how the two interact. It does not say erase can work on a broad group like magical symbols and sigils and runes and glyphs q.v. and then only have the explanation in glyphs of warding.The girdle could have clearly referenced the one and only Hammer of Thunderbolts (q.v.) and have it clearly be a reference for how this works with just the HoT but instead references "in combination with gauntlets of ogre power and magic war hammers (q.v.)"The Hammer of Thunderbolts specifies how the girdle and gauntlets work with the Hammer of Thunderbolts. Given the magic war hammers q.v. does this mean he meant it only works with the HoT or that you look at how it is spelled out how it works in the HoT for how it works with all magic war hammers (and then does this extend to the gauntlets' all "hurled weapons" too?).Magic war hammers plural could mean plural Hammers of Thunderbolts and that you look for the one unique HoT only situation rule in the magic war hammers section or it could mean all war hammers.Gygax provides room for argument here.</blockquote>
