But they sure are fun to puzzle over . . . The Silver Snake Send a noteboard - 21/06/2011 03:08:08 AM
but a bunch of meaningless, nondescriptive titles for maneuvers. DESCRIBE THE FREAKING MANEUVER. WHAT THE HELL DOES KINGFISHER SKIMS THE POND EVEN MEAN! KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!

Can you tell that I'm irked?


Personally for me, I find it really fun to imagine how someone's moving his sword to imitate a "Moon [Rising] Over the Water."
"Courage to strengthen, fire to blind, music to dazzle iron to bind."

Finally, Moiraine is free to rain down her fiery majesty on all those who would oppose the Light.

I find all of the non-channeling related combat implausible and over-dramatic RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/06/2011 03:51:35 PM 1169 Views

I think it does make them unrealistic. Stylistic choices determine how these scenes are conveyed. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/06/2011 09:24:21 PM 1014 Views
