How are people using this? Although I think I'm under using it at present, I'm wary of it becoming an uber passion that can be used everywhere. At present I allow my knights to issue an "honour challenge" and invoke their Honour if they wish. This is stated at the beginning of an encounter, something like "stand back comrades, I shall defeat this Saxon horde, dragon, giant etc alone, on my honour I swear it". In five game years of play no one has yet done this and no one has invoked their Honour for anything else.
- If a knight challenges me can I invoke my Honour? I mean any challenge could be seen as a slur on your Honour ("you touched my wife", "you stole my pig", you're a murderer" - "no im not, what an insult" <invokes Honour>) which is a pretty big advantage to have in a challenge if you can always invoke Honour.
- Using the example from my last play session - Gorlois challenged one of my PKs for touching his wife - could the PK invoke Honour even though he *knew* he was in the wrong? Afterall, he may have done it, but he's protecting his honour in the challenge.
