Cost:4
Ability Type: [[Melee Weapon Specialisation]

Prerequisites:Punch-Blade Training and Melee Combat 5

By concentrating your training on use of pata-type sword-gauntlets 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-punch-blade melee weapons), with which you receive a -1 AM. Shields and unarmed attacks are not affected by this penalty.
