This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

BTW all, you can still Pre-Order through the Backerkit page for the Kickstarter.

You can also order King Arthur Pendragon 5.2 with new art from the artist who did the Spanish Edition.
Even the the "cutting edge" storygamers for all their talk of narrative, plot, and drama are fucking obsessed with the god damned rules they use. - Estar

Yes, Sean Connery\'s thumb does indeed do megadamage. - Spinachcat

Isuldur is a badass because he stopped Sauron with a broken sword, but Iluvatar is the badass because he stopped Sauron with a hobbit. -Malleus Arianorum

"Tangency Edition" D&D would have no classes or races, but 17 genders to choose from. -TristramEvans

Quote from: Baron Opal;970913Egad, you mean Google / Wikipedia was wrong?! I'll alert the media. :)

Quote from: Dumarest;970916Supposedly (per various online sources, not just Wikipedia) akerra means male goat in the Basque language and akelarre comes from the association with the goat. I don't think it actually literally translates to either coven or witches' Sabbath.

It's the translation stated in the Aquelarre book.

Should I suggest to the writers they should stop the press as our crack team of linguistic experts have discovered the wonders of an internet dictionary?

Which I don't have, and thus did a minimum of research to find out what it meant.

Nobody said it wasn't.

Not sure who you are trying to argue with, or why. I'm reading this as awfully defensive. Are you upset that your post about it meaning "coven" was wrong?

I just informed as to what it says in the book, as I have the translated manuscript. It's you guys that are still just blathering on about it, defensively indeed.

Wasn't your definition something about goats?!

Here you go, an online dictionary definition:

aquelarre
witches' sabbath
Dictionary   
aquelarre
MASCULINE NOUN
1. (general)
a. witches' sabbath
Leonora y sus amigas se disfrazaron de brujas y parecía que iban a un aquelarre.Leonora and her friends dressed up as witches, and it looked like they were going to a witches' sabbath.
b. coven
Las brujas practicaron sus hechizos y bailes en su misterioso y secreto aquelarre.The witches practiced their spells and dances in their mysterious and secret coven.


Enjoy (this is what minimal research amounts to, for future reference).

No, we're talking about Aquelarre the RPG, which is Spanish and written in Spanish, and any spanish-speaker would immediately know the title refers to the Witches' Coven/Sabbat.
