the only issue i wish to bring up at this time josh is with the ruling you currently have with shield feint. in a post i initially posted (
http://forums.paradigmconcepts.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=157) henry indicated that he was gonna take another look at that particular move seeing as it was not quite what he had mind as far as the mechanics, i feel there was an implication that the shield was not "dropped" in the sense that you actually lost it. it seems like its more like a hinged where one strap is still attached while other end is lose and one would snap it up/out at opponent kind of like a swinging door. as such i'd think it would be better to wait on saying this is the ruling until we know for sure what henry would like to do with it. i'd be hard pressed to say that there was great majority responding to the thread, let alone justify saying that a majority thought that it was literally dropped to the ground.
now there my be another thread out there that im unaware of where this was discussed in further detail if so i'd love to know which one it is so that i can take a look at if it has been discussed in any more detail since last oct.

Hello gentlemen,
The blame for this idea is mine, not Pete. Pete took the idea that I had and translated it into mechanics.
In my ill-spent youth, I did some Ren Faires as part of the Human Chess Game. One of the maneuvers I did was to turn my shield so that it was on top of my arm, then tossed it towards my opponent, letting the first strap slip off my hand, making him dodge it while I then swung at him.
I don't have the PDF in front of me at the moment, so I don't remember exactly how Pete wrote that up, but that was the intent.
I'll try and review the offending text this evening and let you guys know.
