[PnP] KAMERI WEAPONSMITHS

[Wout Broere]

The change below and some other that are still to be found, are due to the 
fact I used a scan of the Culture Book by Scott Cohan to make these pages. 
He made some changes and I quote generously from his email:

"Also, I am attaching my file of the Culture book.  It includes everything 
from
   the culture book and some stuff from Tower of The Dead (for the Thaliban
   entry).  There are some slight changes, however.
   1) I changed all the dates to the Salaqi Calendar (since they use that 
as the
   benchmark)
   2) Some of the Favored Weapons have been changed (to suit my system)
   3) All of the Gods have been changed (again, to suit my world.  It's the 
same
   gods, just some have different names.  I once posted a list of changes 
that I
   had made, it should be in the archives)
   4) Added calendar and other info from Site Book
   5) Deleted game specific info from Caldan entry
"
So that is the reason there are differences between the website and the 
original book. Anyone who spots them, let me know and I will update the 
site to be as close to the original book as possible.
