I know they can't break shields unless I have two hands on them so I’m using them for reach and if needs be I drop one. So please tell me what is so funny.

BoW wrote:3.2.2.1. Class 1 (one-handed) Weapons cause one hit of Injury to a Target Area. Any Weapon swung with one hand no matter the size is a Class 1 Weapon, including equipment that qualifies as Class 2 Weaponry. Class 1 weapons swung with two hands causes one hit injury to a Target Area.
3.2.2.2. Class 2 (two-handed) Weapons cause two hits of Injury to the Target Area.
3.2.2.3. Class 3 (thrusting) Weapons wielded one-handed cause one hit of damage to an unarmored Target Area. Class 3 Weapons also cause two hits of damage when wielded two-handed against a Target Area, ignoring any Armor the Target Area may have. If the Target Area is armored, the Weapon must be wielded two-handed to cause damage to the Target Area. A one-handed strike causes no injury to an Armored Target Area.
3.2.2.4. Class 4 (missile) Weapons cause two hits of Injury to a Target Area. A Class 4 Weapon striking an Armored portion of the Head causes no Injury.
3.2.2.5. Class 5 (Head only missile) cause 1 hit of Injury to an unarmored Head area. A Class 5 Weapon striking an Armored portion of the Head area causes no injury.
BoW wrote:3.5.1. Shields can be destroyed by two solid strikes from a Class 2 Weapon. Subsequent strikes to a destroyed Shield continue into the Target Area on which the Shield is worn.

they could say straight away that unarmored can grapple all except of people with missile weapons
3.6.1.4. A Combatant wearing plate Armor may not initiate a Grapple.

I'm pretty sure a lot of people need them explained.
I did. And it made perfect sense when they were explained to me.
Doesn't make you stupid .

Probably not. I didn't type these up by hand, but rather copy & pasted them, so it's persisting from an earlier version. It was probably one of those minor typos that didn't caught when we mass adopted the BoW in 2001/2002ish. There are a couple, but technically they can't be changed without a vote and it's really not worth it.

All of the Defined Terms are capitalized throughout the document, I believe. Stuff like Handle and Non-Striking Surface and Head and stuff. That's the way it should be, at least.

And you may want to consider a back shield, I've heard they're pretty awesome for this style. Makes you * near bulletproof.
