I can volunteer my (pretty) complete library, I have almost all published
material from Chaosium (some of the old Mercenaries & Militia-type items
and Balastor's Barracks I never bothered to pick up). It helps that my
friends helped play-test it and gave me my copy of the 1st ed rules...
Strong drink - don't call it uisge, that drives me nuts. Uisge is gaelic
for Water, plain ol' H-2-O. Uisge Beatha is the water of live, like Aqua
Vita, etc. if you don't like to call whisky "whisky", the try Uisge Beatha,
pronounce sort of like "Oo-ish-ke-ba", accent on the Oo (astute readers
will notice that "ooishke" (water) when slurred, sounds a little like
Whisky).
One of my nit-picks with Parke Godwin's Firelord is that Arthur goes and
gets blasted out of his mind on Uisge. Now *that* is a man that has a
drinking problem!
