Oh yeah, I didn't say that these guys were any good with them, just that they all seemed to have them.

I expected the ghost of Micheal of Bedford to come down and make fun of them for using them.

Is thrusting becoming more prevalent in your Kingdom?

This could just be me, but I noticed at the last tournament that I fought in there where a lot more guys thrusting than I am used to seeing in Atlantia. Maybe it was a local variance since I was so far south...thoughts?

We fought with a matched set of maces, one with a Mandrake and one with a By my Hand, and they both hit hard. Wierd (like a Mace feels), but hard. My other Mace, The Wrath of Ko...
