[QUOTE="Ace, post: 1982695, member: 944"] I define "buy" as aquire for money or favors -- With a decent roll of gather information, bardic lore or local history I allow anything to be bought. In fact I am porobaly going to expand the non magical options available (the options in Black Company look pretty good) Magic is tech on my world but some items require extra handling In general Masterwork is simple a better weapon -- like a damascus blade or a twist forged one -- or fitted armor and can be bought Masterpiece (+2 to hit) requires a very good smith and superior steel It is also possible to get better steel and the like. This is historically accurate and fits the game -- I recall reading about entire units of knights during the 14th century equiped with "arrow proof" armor bought at great expense from Italian armorers PC's should have similar options As for enchantments it is posisble to pay for enchntments up to +2 since the inate craftsmanship in the metal is enough to fuel the magic. It is more expensive but available More than that requires power components so it is more difficult to come buy. You will need to commision the piece or get lucky (aka DM fiat or a Hero Point) to get one [/QUOTE]
