  1. Please do not use AH. Here, this stands (most of the time) for Avalon Hill.
  2. 'Poing américain' (American fist) is the french name for any fist load or knuckle brass. I don't know of any other name for this kind of weapon, sorry. My background with weapon is in fencing and military weapons, not street fighting.
  3. I just received mine this morning (YES!!), but have to wait for christmas (Booooh). But my wife does not know I have the pdfs.
  4. I don't know about this one, and still don't have the book, so I can't help. Sorry
  5. Frankly, considering the result, you should not need to ask for translators, at least for french.
  6. The stone bow is a simple bow (surprise) that throw stones and not arrows. There is a (usually leather) pocket in the middle of the cord where you put the stone.

  10. On page https://rqwiki.chaosium.com/rules/rules-for-play.html#dice is written "The dice included in this box are used ...". RQG is not sold in a box, and there is no dice.
  11. My Aeolian Orlanthi has had his live saved by the Tarshite deserter during the sack of Pavis (where he was hiding after Fazzur's problems). It was a matter of honor during an ambush by several lunar soldiers.
  12. Sanctuary was used to describe Refuge in an article in french magazine Tatou, published by Oriflam, then french publisher of RQ3.
  13. I would say the opposite. For me, sword and sorcery settings almost require hit locations and general hit points/major wounds/variable armor are heresy (probably because of my very bad experiences with SB), and contemporary settings, whether superpowered or not, with the damage of modern weapons, almost forbid hit locations, because a limb is almost obliterated with each hit.
  14. Except for Superworld (Superpowered damage would obliterate any hit location for every hit), I very much prefer hit locations. It has a better feeling (for me), allows for localized effects, armor variation, better healing rules.
  15. According to old RQ's motto, monsters are people too, so yes.
  16. And a bit out of scope, but the lunars seem to accept almost anybody that convert to their way. As far as I understand, this include tarshites.
  17. I had read this previously, and I have already told that if Chaosium writers wanted us to play only LM sorcerors, they should have provided the rules only for LM sorcerors, and if other kind of sorcerors are provided, they will be used. I agree rules for Malkioni and Aeolians are only a sketch (and the ones for lunars are non existent), and they will (and should) be revised and expanded, but they are present in the rules. My Aeolians are certainly not canon, and I don't care: They are for me the only henotheists described and I use them (as player and as GM) as they are described.
  18. I hope that Santa Claus will be generous, even if I'm not anymore a child and that I'm not always nice. According to my wife, it should be delivered on time.
