description= _ "The weighted nets used by mermen in warfare are a difficult weapon to use well; those who master it are valued and revered by their comrades. This weapon helps to cement the utter superiority of a merman in his own element, and makes their race a threat even to enemies who merely approach the water."+{SPECIAL_NOTES}+{SPECIAL_NOTES_SLOW}

description= _ "Merfolk tend to use a combination of both nets and clubs in fishing; nets to collect the fish, and clubs to finish the kill. Both of these tools have seen adaptation for warfare, and are valuable enough that auxilliaries who specialize in using them are deliberately brought to battle.

Mermen often find themselves in a standoff with land-based enemies; the merfolk are too strong in the water, and are too weak to make any offense on land. Nets are a key bit of leverage; without nets, mermen can't give any effective chase over land, and are at a great disadvantage in hand-to-hand combat."+{SPECIAL_NOTES}+{SPECIAL_NOTES_SLOW}

description= _ "Fishing, as practiced by mermen, is largely a matter of chasing schools of fish into waiting nets. These are not very damaging in themselves, but they can be used to great effect against troops attempting to ford a river. Smaller, weighted nets can be cast through the air; though these are not designed for peacetime use, they are especially effective in warfare. Mermen use such weapons both to immobilize troops in water, and more importantly, to level the playing field against troops on land, who would otherwise be at a great advantage."+{SPECIAL_NOTES}+{SPECIAL_NOTES_SLOW}

description= _ "Fishing, as practiced by mermen, is largely a matter of chasing schools of fish into waiting nets, where oar-like clubs are used to dispatch the prey. The improvisation of using these against soldiers proved very effective; most land-native creatures are already quite awkward when waist-deep in water, and getting caught in a net can nearly render them helpless.
|
||||
|
||||
The effectiveness of this led to the development of smaller, weighted nets, which could be cast through the air; these were useless for fishing, but were useful in both combat, and in hunting game that came too close to shore. Clubs were used in combat with little or no adaptation from fishing, since they were already quite deadly."+{SPECIAL_NOTES}+{SPECIAL_NOTES_SLOW}
