Huh? Are you saying that... Nargs Send a noteboard - 15/01/2010 01:49:23 AM

they came up with the steam engine, and telescopes ... and that's about it.


Huh? Are you saying that the only reason we havent and wont see cuendillar armor is that the people of randland are not creative enough?

?

also, regarding other types of armors:
tEoTW, chapter 17, Page 204 (HC); Page 242 (PB)
"the resemblance emphasized by the overlapping black plates of armor down its chest"

tEoTW, chapter 30, Page 368 (HC); Page 439 (PB)
"His plate-and-mail armor gleamed like silver against his snowy cloak and undercoat"

TSR, chatper 10
"the snakelike illusion heightened by the overlapping plates of black armor down its chest"

aCoS, Ch 39
"a hundred or more men in helmets like insects' heads and armor of overlapping plates"

WH, Ch 16
"wore brightly painted armor of overlapping plates"

LoC, Ch 54
"The men in red breastplates got on well with the shorter men in plain armor"

Cuendillar and Perpetual Gateways Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 03:32:15 PM 1600 Views
I'm still not sure if cuendillar would be "destroyed" or "remain" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 03:55:00 PM 787 Views
well I think you've discovered something even more important darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 05:00:11 PM 821 Views
I love it... Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 06:23:59 PM 693 Views
exactly! *NM* darius_sedai - 14/01/2010 06:50:19 PM 337 Views
Quick question ... Yondaime - 15/01/2010 01:34:21 AM 799 Views
No - cuendillar just gets stronger the more powerful a force you use against it RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/01/2010 07:55:34 PM 707 Views

Wasn't the consensus... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 05:04:50 PM 795 Views
Really? Gher - 14/01/2010 05:30:40 PM 699 Views
Re: Really? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 05:52:45 PM 662 Views
Alright. Gher - 14/01/2010 06:25:27 PM 650 Views
Even so... Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 06:30:35 PM 729 Views
Not sure, but the discussion might be saved somewhere (maybe in my e-mail somehow) RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 07:12:42 PM 843 Views
Lack of Creativity / Flame Nargs - 14/01/2010 07:31:32 PM 767 Views

let's do some quick math to see how feasible this is... darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 12:16:02 AM 608 Views
Again, Lack of Creativity Nargs - 15/01/2010 12:54:01 AM 646 Views
right cause they are full of new ideas in WoT! darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 12:57:52 AM 614 Views
Huh? Are you saying that... Nargs - 15/01/2010 01:49:23 AM 649 Views
It's not just a matter of creativity Gher - 15/01/2010 03:42:38 AM 729 Views
Are you trying to be funny? Nargs - 15/01/2010 09:22:18 AM 699 Views
I think what people are saying to you (at least what I am saying) darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 07:58:31 PM 814 Views
What I am telling you all (at least telling you) Nargs - 15/01/2010 08:12:32 PM 606 Views
I disagree with part of that darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 08:17:30 PM 1028 Views
The vast majority of WoT folk aren't particularly innovative darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 08:02:52 PM 625 Views
Pretty much. I think their religion is not doing anything helpful with the Power. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/01/2010 09:13:49 PM 594 Views
Mail is obviously out of the question... Gher - 15/01/2010 12:54:32 AM 710 Views
realistically the timeframes involved to make even the shields darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 01:03:30 AM 757 Views
Kind of disagree. Gher - 15/01/2010 01:37:42 AM 667 Views
We agree... maybe? Nargs - 15/01/2010 09:27:32 AM 690 Views
both darius_sedai - 15/01/2010 08:00:26 PM 597 Views
Please explain Nargs - 15/01/2010 09:29:29 AM 680 Views
not saying mail... Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 07:33:06 PM 623 Views
hey look! someone with creativity! Nargs - 15/01/2010 09:30:29 AM 746 Views
Cuendillar dragons are great... Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 06:45:12 PM 681 Views
Create a ter'angreal that can open gateways wherever it is pointed and triggered. Gher - 14/01/2010 04:59:28 PM 649 Views
Maybe this was one of the violent games played for sport during The Collapse *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 05:14:05 PM 297 Views
Without a doubt *NM* Gher - 14/01/2010 05:26:42 PM 303 Views
Or they could just tie the gateway weave off, like Sammael did in CoS, and Rand did in KoD... Shannow - 14/01/2010 07:11:56 PM 845 Views
Thanks; I thought this was the case but couldnt recall the sections. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 07:13:32 PM 609 Views
True... I forgot... Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 07:18:25 PM 706 Views
Tied-off weaves dont last forever Nargs - 14/01/2010 07:39:53 PM 648 Views
No... Shannow - 14/01/2010 07:48:38 PM 717 Views
Correct. Q&A answer below regarding this. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/01/2010 09:08:02 PM 723 Views

Refrigerators and aqueducts and more... Air Conditioning! Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 07:49:12 PM 724 Views
Is a gateway fixed in place? Ashaman Narishma - 14/01/2010 07:55:20 PM 709 Views
Why would this mean that the gateway weave doesn't need to be maintained? *NM* Lord Haart - 17/01/2010 03:22:58 PM 293 Views
Because even if it wasn't tied off, it'd get stuck around the cuendillar doorway, unable to close. *NM* Gher - 22/01/2010 09:07:34 PM 289 Views
But RJ said that cuendillar could not pass into a gateway, didn't he? Lord Haart - 23/01/2010 11:53:35 AM 590 Views
I'm not exactly sure what you mean... Gher - 24/01/2010 09:47:20 PM 672 Views
