[QUOTE="Puxido, post: 6444283, member: 6775929"] It's not sentimentalism, I have never owned a cane or Blackthorn. National pride? I'm Greek my friend (with a little French and Polish who came to America right before ww2), my lineage does not share that with the shaillelagh. The reason I posted this and have kept the post so long was because I saw a weapon, and it seemed different than others I have seen in the past, too long to be a basic club but too light to be a greatclub. I felt there had to be something I could do with it that was unique, functional in a d20 system, balanced, but overall and most importantly fun. I still feel I have not yet unlocked the potential I feel from this idea, might need to brainstorm on it a little more on it, I'm sure it will come to me eventually. I posted this for ideas, not for anyone's blessing, nor do I expect it, it seems most people see this as no more than a club or greatclub, I can see how that could work, but personally from my point of view I cant see it as being either, but that is fine as well. Talking to others just helps me brainstorm. [/QUOTE]
