Will agrees.  "I would agree that the idea has merit but mostly if all of
the other possibilities are not available.  If this is the rout we go or if
it is one of our contingency plans then I think we should keep it fairly
simple such as an enhanced wolf eye (for those not morely opposed to such an
idea).  Which would in effect give you a +5 to all weapon skills for just 6
manna points."
