Please critique them and feel free to add your own; I will incorporate the best of them into this main post for ease of reference.NEW WEAPONS (REVISED)This incorporates "Speaker To Dreamworlds" invaluable input and adds the Net to Exotic Ranged Weapons. I made a couple small tweaks to his work, but the only ones I remember was lowering the cost of the light morning star and making the heavy morningstar two-handed.SIMPLE WEAPONSLight Melee WeaponsSap: 1 sp, Dmg 2d10 subdual, Crit 20/x3, AP 0, Rng 0, Hard 0, HP 1, Wt 2 lb., Type Bludgeoning Special: A sap only deals subdual damage. It is only useful if the target's head can be struck with a sneak or surprise attack. A helm reduces the sap's damage to 1 point of subdual (+ Strength modifier). Any target whose unhelmeted head is struck must make a Fortitide save (DC 10 + damage dealt) or be rendered unconscious for 1d4 minutes.One-Handed Melee WeaponsMorningstar, Light - 2 sp - 1d8 - x3 - AP0 - 0' - Hrd7 - HP3 - 2.5 lb – B/PSickle: This is a farmer's weapon.

EXOTIC WEAPONSOne-Handed Melee WeaponsCat-O-Nine Tails or Scourge: A cat-o'-nine-tails (nine tailed light whip) or scourge (three tailed barbed light whip) can be used to torture captives; doing so adds a +2 bonus to all Profession (Torturer) checks. Neither of these lighter versions of the whip can damage anyone with DR 1 or better. 1 sp, Dmg 1 point lethal + 1d4 subdual on unarmoured opponents, Crit 20/x2, AP 0, Rng 0, Hard 2, HP 0, Wt 1 lb, Type Slashing Flail, light - 1d8 - x3 – AP 3 - 0' - Hrd7 - HP4 - 2.5 lb - B – Special: Spinning Attack - 1d10 - x3 - AP4 Flail, Heavy - 1d10 - x3 – AP 5 - 0' - Hrd7 - HP5 - 4 lb - B – Special: Spinning Attack - 1d12 - x3 - AP6Two-Handed Melee WeaponsFlail, Great - 2d10 - x3 – AP 6 - 0' - Hrd7 - HP10 - 7 lb - B – Special: Spinning Attack - 2d12 - x3 - AP7Ranged WeaponsBamula Hunting Bow: This heavy composite bow is used by warriors of the Bamula tribe to hunt dangerous game such as lions. 20 sp, Dmg 1d10, Crit 19-20/x2, AP 2*, Hard 5, HP 3, Rng 70 ft., Wt 3 lb., Type Piercing Blowgun: This weapon requires two hands to use.

Bolas: A set of bolas consists of two or three heavy wooden spheres connected by lengths of cord. Bolas only deal subdual damage. Because the bolas can wrap around to grapple an enemy's leg, wrist, or neck, you can use this weapon to make a ranged trip attack against an opponent. You can't be tripped during your trip attempt when using a set of bolas. 5 sp, Dmg 1d6 subdual, Crit 20/x2, AP 0*, Hard 0, HP 1, Rng 10 ft., Wt 2 lb., Type Bludgeoning Bolas, Barbed: The barbed bolas is similar to a normal bolas, except that its weighted balls are studded with hooked barbs. The barbed bolas function identically to the bolas except that its damage is not subdual damage. In addition, on any failed attempt to break or wriggle free, the grappled character takes an additional 1d4 points of damage. 10 sp, Dmg 1d6, Crit 20/x2, AP 0*, Hard 0, HP 1, Rng 10 ft., Wt 2 lb., Type Bludgeoning and Slashing Net – 20 sp – n/a – n/a – n/a – 10 ft. – Hard 2 – HP 5 – 6 lb., Type: n/a.

FLAIL RULES: 1 – Flails suffer a -2 penalty to initiative. 2 - Characters with only a Flail who attempt to Parry, and characters who try to Parry an attack by a Flail, suffer a -4 penalty to their Parry DV. 3 - Despite other rules allowing all weapons to use a Finesse Attack, a Flail may never do so. 4 - In the case where the wielder of a flail suffers a Critical Failure, (should such rules be in use) the result is always that the Flail wielder hits himself with his own weapon. 5 - As a Standard Action, a character may use a Flail to make a special Spinning Attack.NOTES: Bec-de-corbins may be set to receive a charge.Lances double their AP value when used in a mounted charge or when set to receive a charge. Pikes double their AP value when set to receive a charge.Spears double their AP when used in a charge on foot or when set to receive a charge.Swords all grant their wielder a +1 bonus to Parry.Swords may be created with basket hilts that prevent them from being disarmed for an extra 25 sp to cost.NEW FEATSMASTER OF FLAILS (General, Soldier) Prerequisite: Proficiency with any Flail-type weapon.

Added Bec-de-Corbin, Estoc, Net. Removed Thorgrim's Hammer as being too unworkable and unrealistic (replaced with heavy war maul).[EDIT] Fixed the stats for both of the war mauls.Follow the progress of the new weapons discussion here for the latest info:<a href="http://www.mongoosepublishing.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1660" target="_blank">http://www.mongoosepublishing.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1660</a></blockquote>
