Here are two (albeit partial) conjugation tables for two different Early Middle Laqar verbs, q'álcə and gákcə. You'll see what I mean by "hard".

All in all, Early Middle Laqar verb conjugation involves a fuckload of different forms (mind you that those tables do not involve any nominalizations beyond the gerund or any voices other than the default), and the sound changes that produced those forms and how they interact can be quite complicated. Somehow the forms come out looking as regular as they do (since you can see a reasonable amount of apparent regularity from looking at those tables).
