Nice pics - that was interesting.
Beg your pardon? :\ Removing 1/3 of the mass from 2 l of water and replacing it with 1 kg of mercury would increase the mass of the bottle by 1/6. That's a hefty enough increase to definitely affect the balance and ease of use of the bottle as an improvised weapon, but it's not like I just doubled the bottle's mass or anything. As we'll see below, though, with a denser "base" material like high-carbon steel, the numbers aren't quite so extreme.big dummy said:A kg of mercury? LOL! How much do you think real swords weighed?

I would really like to see your source on that weapon with a "moving weight on it".
The greatspear is not a bad weapon. It is a lame weapon. But it is not a bad one.
6" spikes

The double axe is actually a very feasable weapon and one that is fun to use and will scare the hell out of anyone whois fighting you. I use one in a fighting club I'm in.
The concept is lame. The mechanical properties of the 3e weapons system have generated a lot of lame concepts. They're barely even worthy of being called "concepts." The bigspear, the bigpick, the bigfalchion, the bighalberd, the bigmace, the bigcrossbow, the bigbow, the... guh! It's terrible.Dannyalcatraz said:How do you figure? How is Reach + 10' range increment + 2d6 x3 damage lame?
Bua-hahahaha. Good one.Hussar said:((WARNING - I am being facetious. I in no way am stating that the interior volume of any sword is equal to 1/2 tsp.))
