Need a description for a small 1d6 18-20 x2 weapon.

[Sidran]

The Khopesh from the D&Dg book is close being a Medium Sized Exotic Weapon.

Also the suggestion that the Shortblade (IMC)

Halfling Shortblade

Cost 15Gp Damage 1d6 18-20/x2 Range --- Weight 1.5 lbs.

Halfling shortblades are thin needle like blade that reach inbetween the range of 2-3.5 ft. Using precise blacksmith techniques to bend the metal into a sturdy whip like blade many who are naive as to the nature of the weapon simply call the Sword names such As Willowblade, or Whipsword.


I also use a full range of barbaric weapons such as a walrus tusk gauntlet, and a Narwhale spear. If anyone is interested. ( In pictures or in the stats used)

Sidran, I would love to see/hear about your barbarian weaponry!

I will second the bit about www.swordforum.com whole heartedly, you won't find a more knowledgable community on the subject anywhere that I know of.

btw Sidran, I love the halfling shortblade description - thank you!!

 

[XCorvis]

shortsword (1d6 19-20 x2) --> Gnomish Pick (1d6 20 x4)
halfling rapier (1d4 18-20 x2) --> Bladed Gauntlet (1d6 18-20 x2)

The Gnomish (Battle?) Pick does great Crit damage, it's one of the best for TWF. Both are in S&F, and, as others have mentioned, the bladed gauntlet has been errata'd.

d6 weapon

What about the Athame? (kris dagger from the quintessintial witch book) 1-6 damage crit 19-20 small weapon

 

[robgmsft]

I just have to giggle thinking about a fighter using a gnomish battlepick. They're kind of silly. I'm a sword/axe guy myself.

The bladed gauntlet was errata'd, but to 19-20 x2 in the latest errata on the Wizard's website:

p. 70, Weapons Table: Bladed Gauntlet, change the crit from 17–20/x2 to 19–20/x2.

p. 70, Replace bladed gauntlet text with:
Bladed Gauntlet: Unlike a standard gauntlet, an attack with a bladed gauntlet is not considered an unarmed attack. The bladed gauntlet possesses two cruelly sharpened blades that extend from the back of the wrist following the line of the forearm. The cost and weight are for a single gauntlet.

I agree that 18-20 would make far more sense.
