Whip Specialisation

Cost: 3
Ability Type: Melee Weapon Specialisation
Related Skill: Melee Combat
Prerequisites: Melee Combat 5 and Flexible Weapon Training

By concentrating your training on use of whips you have become especially skilful at their use and gain a +1 AM to any move you make with one. This expertise comes at the expense of your ability with other melee weapons not in the same training group however (I.e. All non-flexible melee weapons), with which you receive a -1 AM. Shields and unarmed attacks are not affected by this penalty.
