I see alot of referring to: Old Way Traditionalists. But I cant find anything
in Glorantha 2nd Age or Cults of Glorantha... about them, who are they? or what is it? I might be blind but would really want some help with this.

Ostensibly they're the Orlanthi, but really the Old Ways Traditionalists are any social group that worship a pantheon of gods; so you can include in this the Dara Happans and even the Pamaltelan cultures - although the term 'Old Ways Traditionalists' tends to refer to the Genertelan cultures.

Traditionalists = Anyone who doesn't worship the Invisible God or follow the Draconic Path.
 
Just as an aside, in the old Avalon Hill boxed Genertela set they were the 'Old Days Traditionalists.' Anyone know when or why the D morphed to a W?
 
I'm glad they did, 'Old Days Traditionalists' sounds a cheesy folk music group or music hall act from the 1800's :)
 
I think Robin Laws made the change, although I've seen Days/Ways used in both 'King of Sartar' and some of the Stafford Library books. I personally prefer Ways: makes more sense.
