In one of my current games I have a Nataraja (is that right? the four-armed pretender god) with four swords of swiftness, a stone bird, dancing trident, chi shoes and horned helm. Plus, he can cast Quickness!

And he can fatigue out in approximately three battle rounds?

Actually, fatigue comes from "action". Number of weapons you use in one "attack" doesn't affect encumberance at all. Amount of fatigue you get per turn of melee equals "melee encumberance", even if you have 15 attacks such as with the Bow of War. If you have quickness, it's twice that every turn.

I like to put the Sickle whose crop is pain on four armed types with every quickness item I can forge. Generates 20 to 30 death gems every battle. Of course you have to remember to transfer them to another commander after every battle, which does seem to pose a few problems for me.

Every quickness item you can forge would be Boots of Quickness, then? Because, you know, quickness from spells and items doesn't stack with itself. It stacks with heroic quickness if you get a non-pretender four-armed guy to the Hall of Fame and get lucky, but that's about it as far as Quickness stacks.

But the problem is that I did not know quickness doesn't stack. Whoops.

Which brings the question, what doesn't stack?
