Mace Etiquette

A One-handed skill book: a veteran instructor's practical tips on fighting with a mace.

Mace Etiquette is a short, practical lesson from a veteran mace instructor. Forget the idea that maces are just about strength: it’s all timing and momentum. Strike when the enemy leans forward, lead with the elbow, crack the forearm like a whip and let the recoil bring the mace back for the next blow.

Skill book

Mace Etiquette is a One-handed skill book. The first time you read a copy, your One-handed skill goes up by one point – later copies of the same title don’t give anything extra, so there is no need to carry them around.
