They have glyphs... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 18/09/2010 03:43:43 PM
I think this was discussed somewhere. Maps used in battle have glyphs in them to identify stuff for men. So they overcome that problem.

Tavi makes good point also, but this is the one that stick out to me during a bridge run scene. *NM* j-whitt987 - 05/09/2010 08:22:43 PM 766 Views

The wooden permanent bridges seemed to work just fine. Gher - 09/09/2010 03:31:58 PM 1540 Views
Keep in mind, though Tavi - 09/09/2010 03:41:00 PM 1648 Views

Do these pretty symbols in the front and back of this book play any sort of role in the story? j-whitt987 - 06/09/2010 10:33:01 AM 1704 Views
they are glyphs, I believe fistofpainx - 07/09/2010 03:28:31 AM 1502 Views

Dear lord did anybody even bother to edit this book? Dark Knight - 07/09/2010 02:23:23 PM 1562 Views
I was worried that they'd miss a lot of those. Jacob - 07/09/2010 02:30:11 PM 1535 Views
Agreed. Also, I'm thinking the book didn't change at all from the ARC Dark Knight - 07/09/2010 02:37:33 PM 1422 Views
Well, I'll be keeping an eye on it. Jacob - 07/09/2010 02:53:38 PM 1434 Views

The bridges. Palatine - 12/09/2010 01:42:11 AM 1620 Views
I wondered the same thing a few times. j-whitt987 - 12/09/2010 03:11:11 AM 1441 Views
The bridges were arched and were much longer than the chasms *NM* Dark Knight - 12/09/2010 03:30:48 AM 808 Views
How does that keep them from toppling when they are pushed over the edge of the chasms, though? *NM* j-whitt987 - 12/09/2010 02:23:32 PM 737 Views
Think about it Dark Knight - 12/09/2010 05:17:07 PM 1454 Views
I don't see. Palatine - 12/09/2010 06:18:22 PM 1525 Views
Agreed. I spent a couple hours thinking about it yesterday and came to the same conclusion. j-whitt987 - 13/09/2010 01:54:45 PM 1549 Views
