Remember, we were talking about RAPIER marshal staves here. Let me  point
out that I can -- and DO -- use a hardwood stick for parrying on  the
rapier field. So, it is legal to fight with it but not to marshal  with
it. Seems kinda pointless huh?

Beside, I already know the REAL  reason for this rule...it provides the
armored fighters with a ready source  of free rattan. ;-)

This would be possible IF we don't have marshals that work both sides --  
marshal staffs are marked the same way for both heavy and  rapier...     or 
should we write another "rule" so heavy  staffs are marked one way, and rapier 
another???    Just a  thought,
