What is the limit on authorised stories from the BMP? I have a feeling it's going to be one of each type per character, but I just want to be sure.

Unlimited, or so it would seem so far.

You can take completed books back to Durmand to have the stories authorized. You can then trade in authorized stories to one of the four story scribes (located next to Durmand in each port city) for a customized weapon from the historic period you witnessed during the mission. However, you will no longer be able to keep the book in your Xunlai storage once it has been authorized.
Dont know if it helps, dont have the BMP myself...

you can re-take the book and complete it for infinite rewards

the 3 rewards for the challenges can only be gotten once, but they can be accessed from any char on your account

Do you get anything except 12 more weapons when you complete all discoveries?

I mean without taking the extra books.

Surely no one needs 12 clean max weapons?

The discoveries have a higher gold reward, but I'm not really sure what the point in transferable weapon rewards is. You can take any (even low level) toons through the missions and get them their own weapons.

My best guess is that maybe with the discoveries you can get more than one weapon in a run? 3 discoveries + the start book would mean 4 weapons, so I guess if you did that it would make sense that you might not want them all on one toon.

:P I wouldn't complain if I'm getting more weapons for free, especially when I don't have to work for them

Though all the protect X discovereies are quite challenging

Well, discoveries can serve as "storage", if you happen to really need particual weapon, you can pop discovery book and get it immediatelly and it also didnt waste single spot in storage.

That's a good idea. Oh and I *really* wasn't complaining, I was just a bit confused as to what the point of infinite weapons + 12 was.

i guess its incentive to play through it "differently"
