I'm not sure putting up incomplete Praxian keywords was such a good idea. Let's face it these are mainly going to be of interest to old RQ'ers.
>From a converting RQ to HW perspective:-

"Praxians suffer an improvisational modifier to their weapon skills when afoot."
I'm sure the Lunar cavalry do most of their fighting in the saddle, are we going to give them an improv mod also?
Praxians didn't have a penalty in RQ.

Storm Bull (listed as a spirit cult but described as a shaman tradition). You now need a bunch of SB shamans to provide all the SB magic. I find it hard to picture a SB shaman, certainly nothing like the standard shaman stereotype. HW shamans aren't combat limited like RQ shamans so I guess all those RQ Rune Lords could just be HW SB shamans. "Storm bull worshippers often have the Spirit Combat ability." Which is useless.
The RQ type scenarios that are long chaos hunts (such as dyskeans(?) cavern) are very tough on SB's now because their fetishes are one use (but then again many SB PC's will now be Uroxi PC's).

At least we now know why all Storm Bullers keep going to the block. It's to get all their fetishes refilled by the resident shamans.

I guess the Pol Joni worship Urox not SB, thus the NPC Sticklebrix is an Uroxi theist.

What happens at the block must be a real mess now. Someone please come up with a explaination of what happens when a bunch of Uroxi meet a bunch of Storm Bulls.
