Description

Swordsmanship is a skill that allows the wielder to use Sword or Axe style weapons. High dexterity and strength is recommended for Swordsmen to swing faster and harder. It is coupled well with Anatomy and Tactics for damage increases as well as Lumberjacking.

Special Move

Axes have a passive chance to strike a Concussion Blow on a target, significantly reducing the victim's intelligence for a period of time. Anatomy is factored into your chance to hit a Concussion Blow: (Anatomy / 100) * (Concussion Blow Base Chance). The maintainers of this archive are unable to provide an accurate value for the base chance. If you are determined enough, you may discover the details of the original base chance but know that the Game Masters have the ability to adjust this value as they see fit.
