Ok, this
has been giving me a headache for quite some time, in the book
series Aes Sedai Cant maintain the shield if they lose sight
while, the Ashaman can maintain the shield with out so does
that mean i should do the same in my game??? What do you guys
think and what are you doing in yours???

I remember
Aes Sedai saying that most men belived that they couldn't
maintain a weave they couldn't see, and I remember the
Asha'men doing it. But I dont remember Aes Sedai *not* being
able to do it.

well im not
sure what your'e talking about, i dont remember anything like
that. When a certain someone got stuffed in a box by aes sedai
they stilled maintained a direct shield. even so, you can
always tie it off and leave
it.

Hey Milosh,
and Melriken for that matter. For the life of me I can't
remember the quotes that you guys are refering to. I use a lot
of house rules in my game to conform more to the books. I
would really appreciate the books and pg. number for them and
I could make something
appropriate.

dont have the time to look it up right now, but the
event we are refering to is when the Aes Sedai attack the
black tower, the main group is stopped just outside by an
Asha'man, then flanked by some more, who shield the leader,
she then thinks 'If I can run into the trees the shield will
break because men dont think they can hold a weave they cant
see' however Logan (iirc) chases her into the trees and even
though he lost sight of her keeps the shield, stops her, and
bonds her.
hope thats what you were looking
for

I believe
seeing the weave is mentioned when one Aes Sedai is talking
about how she over came her block and she says "I could only
channel with my eyes closed and you need to be able to see to
weave correctly" or somthing along those lines. So an Aes
Sedai can maintan a weave she can't see but can't form the
weave in the first plcace if she can't see
it.
