    Does a whip threaten an area?

    Well the whip is considered a ranged weapon so can it threaten squares?

    Testing

    Hmmm, I tried to post in the Rules forum this morning and everything seemed to work fine, but then my post never appeared:(. I'm just trying to see if I can post and reply to a thread.
