- ST
- ST 13 + 0 = 13
- CN 10 + 0 = 10
- SZ 11 + 0 = 11
- WT 15 + 6 = 21
- WL 4 + 1 = 5
- SP 10 + 1 = 11
- DF 7 + 6 = 13
-
- The low WL and DF precludes nearly every finesse style, and this char-
- acter doesn't have the endurance necessary for bashing or lunging. Thus,
- you are left with the striker. Actually, I rather like high WT low WL
- strikers, especially if they have a DF of 13+.
-
- Run him balls out, 10-10-6-HE-BD-Decis for the first minute with a war
- hammer vs light (0,7), Longsword vs. Medium (8,14) and Broadsword vs.
- heavy (15,+). No armor, no backup weapons, and don't even *think* about
- training stats. Skills all the way.

- AB
- ST 12 + 1 = 13
- CN 10 + 0 = 10
- SZ 7 + 0 = 7
- WT 13 + 4 = 17
- WL 8 + 3 = 11
- SP 3 + 2 = 5
- DF 17 + 4 = 21
-
- Very nice AB, very nice. Run him like a lunger his first fight,
- 10-10-6-AB-LE-Lunge, with an EP vs light (0,7), LS vs. medium (8,14)
- and LO vs. heavy (15,+). Wear ALE/L and train skills all the way.

- SL
- ST 13 + 0 = 13
- CN 6 + 0 = 6
- SZ 18 + 0 = 18
- WT 12 + 5 = 17
- WL 4 + 2 = 6
- SP 12 + 5 = 17
- DF 5 + 2 = 7
-
- They're a dying breed, but big, smart, quick slashers can still be run
- to a winning record, and AD. Go out full bore, 10-6-6-RA-AM-None,
- in no body armor, and training skills. Use a SH vs light (0,7), and
- BS vs. everything else (8,+). I like this guy a lot!
-
- Have fun. You've got some interesting roll-ups there!
