Half an Excuse

Lazy blogger ...
Really trying to get the book complete which is hard, I never realized I was so much of a procrastinator ...
Anyway, it's close, and at the moment I'm having a highly entertaining time with the Glossary

A sample :-)

Double Death – Both players die, simultaneously or as one inadvisedly basks in their moment of glory

Drill – A means to an end

Evasion – Getting out of harm's way a.k.a A very good idea

Exit – The most often forgotten, yet most important part of surviving an encounter with blades

Faking – A stratagem to cause a defensive reaction in the opponent that is not what it seems
