That leaves 36 pages of content for $3.00! That is an awesome bang-for-buck-ratio. Now let’s take a look at whether the content suffers from the low price.The pdf kicks off with a one-page introduction on how legendary weapons work and adds a variant optional rule for weapon jealousy. Nice.The weapons follow a two-page format including b/w-artwork, requirements of the weapon, all the abilities and a table listing the weapon’s progression. The weapons are:-Alieywishia, Orc Scourge:  A bane curved scimitar-like weapon that helps slay and track Orcs.-Asterion’s Soul: A brutal sword inhabited by the sould of a minotaur.-Counter: A cool main-gauche for duelants.-Crusader’s Sword: A holy consecrated blade for clerics, paladins and Inquisitors to kill evil outsiders. -Diamond’s Edge: An incredibly sharp blade that is said to be connected to the mythic diamond dragons-Ebon Whispers: A lethal Assassin’s Throwing Dagger-Endless Winter: Ice-cold blade of a barbarian legend.-Gladiator’s Response: A showman’s blade to kill beasts etc.-Guardian:  The sword of a heroic last defender.-Lion of Iskander:  A holy sword for the leaders of men.-Mitra’s Blade: Undead-slaying sun-themed falchion-Moon’s Vengeance: Anti-Lycanthrope side-sword-The Red King’s Judgment: A fiery greatsword worthy of a villain (or an anti-hero)-Sandman’s Blade: Rapier with time-abilities for bards and arcane casters.-Sorrow: A creepy, tragic sword. One of my favorites.-Summoner’s Tool: A Summoner’s tool to make his Eidolons stronger.After that, we get one page with two alignment templates and a new combat maneuver: Parry. We also get another two pages containing three new feats and three new spells. Conclusion: Editing and formatting are top-notch, I didn’t notice any typos or the like. The writing and prose are concise and do a great job of making the blades interesting in spite of the limitations in space and the setting-neutral background.For the very low price, you get excellent blades and a HUGE amount of content. While the abilities could have been a bit more on the far-out side of things for me, I can’t help but like what Mark Gedak and Stefen Styrsky have done here. I love leveling weapons and this file provides them for an extremely fair price. I have high hopes for the sequel. (Which has just been released!) And a file for leveling armors. For now, I’ll rate this a very good 4.5 stars due to the fact that I would have loved to see some rather far-out abilities. (Like the Fiery Discorporation of “The Red King’s Judgment…)</blockquote>
