Topic: Riposte from Combat Companion

[black flag]

Hi to all Folks there!
In Combat Companion p 66 in the Riposte section, the text says:
" The character does a full parry, moving all of his OB to DB. However, the riposte does not get the additionnal +10 to DB,...".

But in the rules from Arms Law p 15, the text says:
" if a combatant elects to parry with a weapon with their entire OB, they receive the shield bonus for their weapon...". 
But not the special +10 bonus to DB...if I'm right, this rule comes from HARP?

Does a full parry in RM give a special +10 bonus to DB?

Actually it is a typo, it should be +5 (actually, it should just say "shield bonus for the weapon(s) used in the parry").

In RM, when doing a Full Parry, you receive the Shield Bonus of the weapon see the table on page 14). Of course, in doing a full parry, with a 2 weapon combo, you get a +10 to DB (and that COULD be what I was thinking about when I wrote the Riposte -- i.e. a rapier and main gauche type of style/fencing maneuver).
