Most of the time, if you break a stick, you have two shorter sticks. Which is to say, clubs.Nah, if someone said 'I want to pick up the head of the halberd and attack with it' or 'I want to hit him with the shattered remains of my two-handed sword', I'd let them do it.  Not with the full capabilities of the weapon, of course - but this isn't a video game, the weapons don't just vanish when they break.Probably, I would use my phenomenal cosmic DM powers to assess an appropriate circumstance penalty to hit and/or damage. (And if a DM said 'yes, your broken quarterstaff can be used as a club, but it's not balanced very well, take a -2 penalty' I'd think that was fair, too.)Except, apparently, when forging or magically enhancing them, when they are treated as two weapons.But only when you're permanently magically enhancing them.  The mages aren't smart enough to figure out how to make a magical enhancement to both ends permanent without doing two separate enchantments - even though it's trivial with a magic weapon spell.J</blockquote>
