My character was in a situation, battling an ally who was possessed. Clearly didn't want to kill them.
It occurred to me that a sack of coins (i.e. a coin pouch) makes a pretty good sap.
IRL a sap was a leather sack, relatively small in diameter, loaded with lead shot. In game it does a D6 of non-lethal damage.
When we went actually to look up sap that damage, we discovered that this simple club-like implement is listed as a Martial weapon. A club, on the other hand, is a Simple weapon.
Whiskey-Tango-Foxtrot, over?
Any other weapons you think might be mis-categorized?
