    It looks like a very easy weapon to use. Compared to other weapons of similar
    difficulty this one looks like it would do an average amount of damage. This
    weapon looks useless for parrying.

    This is an excellent flail for you to use.

Rogues get a discount and can learn lessons sooner than non-rogues if they 
highsign infront of Trough before the training session, they have to have the
full cost of the training session on them, but they get coins given back to 
them for being a fellow rogue. Although since addition of skills to AA I 
would not recommend any rogues to learn brawl unless they are bored. I'm not
sure what the changes to brawl have done but at a rouge guess brawl is 
probably worse than it was before.

str + weight

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Title: 'weight' // Vajra <4> Thu Sep  7 04:23:39 2000

Mib's post a while back inspired to do my own modest research.
Not in the same league at all but here is what I found out
about weight: (str * 1.5) [rounded down] + 7 = max carry.

This was based on loading up with beer at strs of 2, 3, and 15.

Title: 'containers' // Deion <19> Tue Jan 14 22:27:21 2003

i went through and tested all the containers i could get my hands on.  i
filled them up and weighed them.  then i quit out (to avoid the weight bug
when wearing a full container) and got the container, filled my inventory, 
wore the container, and finally refilled my inventory and counted the
difference.  i took this difference from the original weight of the container
to get the weight of the container when full and worn.  then i divided the #
of units the container could hold by the weight of the full worn container. 
these are the "compression" ratio's that i got.  ( and no, i didnt do BOG)

knapsack worn--2.44
ranger belt worn--2.00
silk pack worn--1.82
ranger pack worn--1.80
canvas pack worn--1.78
knights pack worn--1.78
knights pack--1.78
ranger sack worn--1.57
canvas pack--1.45
silk pack--1.43
forgot pouches

ranger pouch worn and canvas pouch worn--1.67

yeah, know i'm all screwed up with my order

knapsack--1.46
provision sack, scythe sack--1.43

ok, there's plenty more lower than this that don't matter.  the point i'm
trying to get at is, (assuming you don't have bog) is using 2 knapsacks
really the best way to carry eq?  for example, a dwarf fighter has 19str=35
units of available carrying capacity.  with 2 knapsacks (assuming one of them
is worn) the result is 55 units.  (35-9-15=12)  12+22+22=55.  the largest
combination (assuming no bog and the fighter is wearing a knapsack) is a
knapsack and 12 ranger made belt (yes, you can wear multiple ranger made
items) gives a carrying capacity of 72, granted the fighter would have to
fill up the containers before picking them up and wearing them.  also, he
wouldn't be able to wear that 13th belt since it would be too heavy to pick
up unworn.  but realistically, that would require way too many aliases, and
you'd need 240 lengths of sinew for the belts.  so what # makes for the best
# of containers for alias purposes? 
2?  
knapsack worn and a silk pack worn gives 57.
3? 
knapsack worn, silk pack worn, and ranger pack worn gives 61 
knapsack worn, 2 knight packs gives 62
knapsack worn, silk pack worn, and a knight pack gives 64
4?
knapsack worn, silk pack worn, 2 ranger packs worn gives 65

ps, on all of these combos, i didn't include how much space was available for
a weapon.

Title: 'last 2' // Deion <19> Wed Jan 15 17:32:10 2003

capet--i was in a hurry so i just put a "ps" then took off.
 knapsack worn, knapsack unworn leaves 12 units available
knapsack worn and a silk pack worn leaves 15 units available
knapsack worn, silk pack worn, knight pack leaves 7 units available

btw, an unworn full knapsack has the same weight as  3 full ranger packs worn
with the 3 ranger packs giving 5 more carrying capacity.

baphomet--yeah, you're right.  i don't know why i came up with 55.  i checked
the rest of the #'s on calculator and they're all correct.
