[QUOTE="Tsyr, post: 425607, member: 354"] Just for the record, here are the names of the feats: Parry Armoured Fencer (Heavy) (Let you use the Parry feat while better armoured) Armoured Fencer (Medium) Crushing Defense (Parry with a twist) Expert Parry Guarded Defense Improved Parry Incredible Parry Protective Parry Steel Skin (unarmed parry, basicly) Circle Student Circle Master Danger Sense Kick Them While They're Down Single Blade Style (I love this one) Snatch Weapon The fencing styles are: Mercy's Blade Nimble Feet Rapier and Dagger Fencer's Insight Also has a bunch of new weapons and such for fencers including the (groan) mandatory exotic elven "Better than any human weapon" fencing weapon. Does include some rules for a "dueling cloak" though, which is really cool and much appreciated. Also has a bunch of examples of new uses for different skills... Wooing for diplomacy, throw someone off balance for balance, etc. The swashbuckling article also has suggestions and tips for a DM running that type of game, example of ways PCs could fit into such a game, monsters in a swashbucking game (Including a really cool and slightly hillarious picture of an illithid in a zorro-esq mask/cape outfit holding a dagger), some adventure hooks, suggestions for how to handle existing races and classes in said game style, some stuff on honor and prestige, and closes with a nice list of suggest reading/viewing. Overall, a very impressive atical. The masterwork bardic peices are a really nice idea, and one I'm going to be sure to use. Some good rules, and enough fluff to be interesting to read, but generic enough that you can use them for just about any fantasy game. I liked the alchemy section too, but, then, I'm a fan of alchemy in general. Basicly, it lists a bunch of new plants and so forth, details them briefly, including describing what they look like and where to find them, and then for each one lists something you can make with it. New alchemical items are: Burn Salve Devil's Soap Dragon Brew Elf Hazel Frost Lotion Gash Glue Goblin Ink Icewalker Oil Journeyman's Friend Lantern Stars Memorybind Mindfire Night Venom Oakdeath Purebalm Senses Shinewater Titan Gum Vine Oil White Sanguine Wittlewort Brew Overall very impressed also with both the Troll Ecology section -- though I will admit the Savage Claw advancement chart isn't my favorite peice of work (I don't like advancement charts, really) -- and the Claw of Gold theives guild. This also includes a pretty cool "Draconic" template. The info on the Beggar's Union was interesting too, though I don't anticipate using it any time soon (It's mostly stuff that would be out of my players "area"). [/QUOTE]
