You can now get bits from corpses (and bits from other bits) with swords, axes, and polearms. The part you're trying to get must be above a certain overall size, and it can't be an internal organ, a bone, or skin; so things like arms, legs, heads, etc. AND you can't be holding the corpse or bit; it has to be on the ground or some other surface.

Knives and daggers will continue to work as usual.

If you find a bit you think you should be able to get but can't, or CAN get but think you shouldn't...

Saturday 18th Sektober Secundus, UC 2042

After a practical joke that lasted more than a year, the senior staff of the Fools' Guild have pulled down the set piece backgrounds blocking their new members from the majority of the guild.

This was widely regarded as "not all that funny" by the majority of outsiders, and "the strictest adherence to our tradition and respect to our institution" by the Cloistered Staff. One Fool on staff, who wishes to remain anonymous, is quo...

You can now refer to a Fyodor's Nimbus of Porterage cloud as "nimbus" and "carrier". Things like "look at my nimbus" or "look at my carrier cloud" will now work.

N.B. Any clouds summoned before this blog will not have been updated.

Mocking can be a hit or miss affair sometimes, so I've added in some hints to help out. Witches may now mull over their targets' shortcomings with additional eye-ings. This will show the witch where they might best apply some verbal jabs.

There is now an option (options combat attack_on_theft =on/off) that lets you automatically attack when someone tries to steal from you.

This means that you can use this option to automatically attack when something fails to steal/filch from you. The option will make you always attack someone who snatches (whether or not they succeed).

Greetings!

There have been a couple small clothing and armour changes. First, all cloaks/robes/dresses that say they have a hood should now have a functioning hood. Use 'pull hood [on] <item> [forward]' and 'push hood [on] <item> [back]' to raise or lower the hood. Second, in the same vein, helmets that say the have a visor should now have a working visor. Use 'raise/lower visor on <helmet>' to move it.

I'm not sure I updated all occurrences, so if you find one of these that does not have a...
