[QUOTE="Ferrix, post: 1504817, member: 6115"] I'm working on a basic set of weapons which can then be modified via templates to get a whole slew of weapons allowing really interesting and unique weapons that are variations on a basic type. There are currently no prices attached to the templates or base weapons. Suggestions would be welcome. The table is attached at the bottom. Currently don't have anywhere to host it, so no image link and it's a pain to format at the moment into a code table. Maybe this will work. And it does. :-) [IMG]http://www.enworld.org/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=13986&stc=1[/IMG] [SIZE=3][B]Weapons[/B][/SIZE] Axe: Your standard axe is a single or double-headed weapon with a sturdy haft.
