CW: Warmace and Maul

Maybe I am just anal...

BUt I was looking over the Complete Warrior and the Warmace entry states that it is sooo heavy, that there is a -1 to hit (sometimes only?).
Yet the Maul is TWICE as heavy (20 vs 10 lbs.), and does not have this restriction.

THey are both 2 handed martial weapons, and one handed exotic weapons.

NOTE: I do not have the book in front of me, so the minor details may be a bit off, but not enough to change the issue.

The weapons looked a little bit silly to me when I read it, I'll give it a look when I get home.

Maybe it's a drawback to offset the high damage die (though the low crit mod should offset it). Too heavy could be interpreted as too unwieldy, but I think the maul is basically the same to handle.
