Unarmed and improvised attacks such as throwing a chair do 1d4 damage. Concealed weapons do extra damage if the attacker has a higher initiative roll than the target.Long reach weapons are 2 handed but do only 1d6 damage as they provide +1 to AC by keeping enemies at bay.Off-hand weapons do 1d6 or 1d8 damage depending on the size of the weapon and can be used 3 times per turn at 20th level.A main weapon does 1d10 damage but can be only used a maximum of 2 standard actions at 20th level.*remember that I propose that levels 15 through 19 only have a maximum of 4 standard actions or 1 reaction and 3 standard actions.*only at 20th level max, can there be 5 standard actions. 2 main weapon attacks and 3 off-hand weapon attacks or 5 off-hand weapon attacks.2 handed weapons do 2d6 damage -- two attacks max per turn.Thrown weapons do 1d6 damage.Sling ammo or short bow arrows do 1d6 damage.Long bow arrows do 2d6 damage and can defeat heavy armor.Hand crossbows do 1d8 damage.Heavy crossbows do 1d10 damage. Weapons unarmed punch/bludgeoningunarmed kick/bludgeoninggauntlet/bludgeoning/off-handshield/bludgeoning/off-handsap/bludgeoning/off-hand/concealment surprisepole-arm or scabbard/bludgeoning/off-handlong staff/bludgeoning/2 handedclub/bludgeoning/maingreat club/bludgeoning/2 handedflail or nunchaku/bludgeoning/off-handmace/bludgeoning/mainlarge mace/bludgeoning/2 handedsmall hammer/bludgeoning/concealed surprisemaul/bludgeoning/mainbattle hammer or war hammer/bludgeoning/2 handedspiked gauntlet/bludgeoning, piercing/off-handspiked chain/bludgeoning, piercing, grappling/off-handpick/bludgeoning, piercing/off-handspiked mace/bludgeoning, piercing/mainmorningstar/bludgeoning, piercing/off-handdagger/off-hand/slashing, piercing/concealment surprisespear/off-hand/piercinglance or ranseur/2 handed/piercing/reach 10 feet/ac+1trident/off-hand/piercingshort sword or wakizashi/off-hand/slashing and piercinggarrote/2 handed/grappling/slashingsickle or kama/slashing/off-handglaive or naginata/2 handed/slashing/reach 10 feet/ac+1hand axe/main/slashingbattleaxe or war axe/2 handed/slashingbastard sword/2 handed/slashingrapier/main/slashing and piercinglong sword/main/slashing and piercingfalchion/main/slashing and piercingguisarme or halberd/2 handed/slashing or piercing/reach 10 feet/ac+1thrown dagger/ranged/piercing/concealment surprisethrown axe/ranged/piercingthrown spear/ranged/piercingjavelin/ranged/piercingbolas/ranged/grapplingsling/ranged/bludgeoningsmall bow/ranged/piercinglong bow/ranged/piercinghand crossbow/off-hand/ranged/piercinglarge crossbow/ranged/piercingwhip/grappling/ranged/piercingnet/grapplingimprovised weaponsThe main goal here is to make each weapon attractive for its own reasons to accommodate the fighting style of the character.If one weapon affords an ac+1 defense, then it should trade off for less damage.If a weapon does more damage, then it should trade off for no shield or off-hand strikes, which also means fewer standard action choices. That means the damage reward for 2 handed weapons will probably need to be a little higher for a better tradeoff. I'm open to any suggestions, changes with the weapons table. Any ideas not brought forward?</blockquote>
