Plus, whats the major difference between one sword or another? They are hunks of sharp metal that chop, poke and crush.There is another reason not to "stat" too much variety: many people won't roleplay with a really cool, exotic sword if its slightly worse than another, similar sword. You end up having to add odd rules to make each item unique enough to fill a niche.Personally, I don't like "fantasy" weapons: I don't think in real life a double bladed axe or a "hooked hammer" is markedly superior to a regular one. If the weapon is balanced and heavy and sharp, it will be deadly in the proper hands.So...give me flavor but not too many rules.Just my opinion, though.</blockquote>
