==7. Armour Requirements==
===7.9 General===
*Updated 7.9.1 to specify "Viscoelastic polymers and non-newtonian padding (i.e. Zoombang) are considered equivalent padding." As per most recent Society Marshals' handbook updates. This is due to the inability to inspect and ensure the effectiveness of Zoombang as equivalent body armour.

==8. Melee Weapon Standards==
===8.1 General===
*Added ability to waive the need for lanyards in war, as per the recent Society Marshals' handbook update.
===8.3 Fibreglass Spears===
*Added 8.3.4 banning the use of 2” Mandrake™ thrusting tips on fibreglass spears as per the recent Society Marshals' handbook update. This is due to a design fault in the item that allows them to deform and potentially enter faceplates.
===8.4 Thrusting Tips===
*Added 8.4.3.5 repeating the ban of the use of 2” Mandrake™ thrusting tips on fibreglass spears as per the recent Society Marshals' handbook update, in this equally relevant area.
==10. Missile Weapon Standards==
===10.1 General===
*Corrected hyphenation of "sling-staffs" for consistency.
==13. Glossary==
===Weapons===
*Changed to "Approved rigid material" in line with the recent Society Marshals' handbook update.
*Added "Haft" definition.
*Added "Handle" definition.
