====Weaponry====

Dog weapons are characteristically sturdily-built, and incorporate repeated rectangular motifs. The weapons released so far can be categorized into three basic types:

=====[http://blog.wolfire.com/2009/03/dog-weapons-part-one-polearms/ Polearms]=====
The polearms are longer weapons, with some sort of blade affixed to the end of a pole, to allow for greater reach. This allows for dogs to wage battles against without allowing their enemies to enter close-quarters combat, limiting the effectiveness of natural weapons such as teeth and claws.
The dogs use three major types of polearm:
* '''Spear''': The spear is a staple of the dog's arsenal, and it has been stated that "a normal dog soldier is often armed with a spear and sidearm." The spear may be thrown, for ranged attacks, or wielded in-hand.
* '''Glaive''': Another comonly used wepon for the dogs is the glaive, which resembles a single-edged blade at the end of a polearm. The glaive cannot be thrown, but allows for slashing and hacking attacks at a far greater distance than a sword would allow. The dogs incorporate a metal spur about 4/5 of the way down the pole, for various uses, including greater leverage for stronger attacks, and the ability to help deflect enemy blows.
* '''Rabbit catcher''': The Rabbit catcher is a much less-commonly-used weapon, that resembles a two-headed glaive, with the blades oriented inward, in a "V"-pattern. It is used to disrupt the rabbit's jumping ability, and to fortify walls and structures against leaping attacks.
=====[http://blog.wolfire.com/2009/03/dog-weapons-part-two-blades/ Blades]=====
The dogs use single-edge blades on their swords and daggers, which they use at closer range than the polearms. The blades are a strong example of the rectangular motifs used in the dog culture, and carry a distinctive, polygonal-shaped blade. As with the polearms, there are three types of bladed weapons utilized by the dogs:
* '''Knife''': The knife is generally carried into battle by all dogs, and, like all of their weaponry, has a sturdy, heavy construction. This limits it's effectiveness as a thrown weapon, but makes it much more effective against lightly-armored enemies.
* '''Sword''': The standard dog sword is wielded in one paw, and would generally be carried in conjunction with a spaer. Although it is only bladed on one side, the hand guard extends on both sides of the blade, making it a more versatile weapon. It has been noted that the heft of the blade would allow the wielder to use it effectively against the weapon of a polearm-wielding adversary.
* '''Broadsword''': The dog broadsword is a very large weapon, and accordingly, must be wielded with both paws. For that reason, it is generally only carried by the pack leaders and commanders, while the majority of the soldiers carry the lighter one-handed sword. It has been noted for its ability to cleave the heads off of spears, due to it's considerable size and weight
=====[http://blog.wolfire.com/2009/03/dog-weapons-part-three-the-hammer/ Warhammer]=====
The dog warhammer is a massive weapon, and must be carried in both hands. It is very cumbersome and unwieldy in battle, but still remains commonly used by the leaders of [[clan Stone]], because of its cultural and historical significance (see below). Though cumbersome, the weapon is highly effective against heavily opponents.

===Famous battles===
The Battle of Steel Quarry was a brief skirmish between the Dogs of clan [[Clan Stone|Stone]] and the Dogs of clan [[Clan Sword Breaker|Sword Breaker]]. Prior to the battle, the leaders of both clans, [[Tarl of clan Stone]] and [[Kaz of clan Sword Breaker]] had agreed to a duel to settle a land ownership dispute surrounding a granite quarry. Kaz had attempting to poison Tarl the night prior to duel, and so felt that Tarl would be forced to submit. However, Tarl had suspected the food he had eaten was poisoned and purged his stomach after the meal. Kaz, sure that his poisoning had succeded, waited in his camp for a messenger from Tarl telling of his inability to fight, but no messenger arrived. Having waited most of the day, Kaz was forced to rush to the duel location to meet Tarl. Having come unprepared to fight a healthy and fully equipped adversary, Kaz was forced to concede.

To seek revenge for his loss, Kaz decided to attack the Dogs of clan Stone as they came to the quarry one morning. After laying in wait among the rocks, the Sword Breakers attacked the dogs of clan Stone who had only basic tools to defend themselves with. Despite superior numbers and equipment, the mobility of the clan Stone Dogs and their familiarity with the terrain gave them the upper hand and allowed them to defeat clan Sword Breaker.

Alshain De Carbonel

[[Image:Alshain.jpg|thumb|Alshain De Carbonel as seen in the blog.]]
Alshain De Carbonel is the leader of the Assasins of the Bright Tapestry. In his time as an imperial duellist, Alshain was considered a master in combat and became so proficient that few other [[Cats]] would challenge him. Deprived of combat, Alshain turned to Muridaen drugs as a substitute and soon became addicted to them. Despite his addiction, he was still called upon as a duellist and incorporated his drug use into his combat style in what detractors called "some kind of obscene dance." His combat style developed a following of other disgraced and drug addicted duellists, which also sought the potent drug mixture that Alshain has concocted.

Over time, Alshain grew to hate him self for what he had become, but after a night of drug use Alshain was reported to have seen a vision in the rising sun. He claimed that the gods had shown him that cat society was a "tapestry, corrupted, soiled and torn by endless unresolved feuds." After his vision, Alshain resolved to correct this perceived wrong through means of assassinations and threat and thus created the Assassins of the Bright Tapestry.

Wolves in Lugaru

2010-03-04T01:29:55Z

Eruditemoose:

Wolves are vicious fighters with a disdain for technology.

==Wolves in Lugaru==

[[Image:Lugaruwolf.png|thumb|alt=A wolf|The first wolf encountered in the Lugaru campaign]]
Wolves are one of the principal enemies in Lugaru.
Each wolf pack is presided over by an Alpha Wolf, who is usually the strongest wolf in the pack.
Unfortunately, wiser and more suitable candidates are unlikely to be the strongest of the pack, and thus are unable to attain the position of Alpha Wolf.

It is because of the short-sightedness of one particular Alpha Wolf, who maintains his position by brawn rather than intelligence, that the large scale massacre of the rabbits began, without thought to the sustainability of excessive hunting.
