[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 5057422, member: 82106"] Well, or maybe it would make it even more plain to include any sort of vehicle whatsoever. I kind of look at it this way. A +1 sword is kind of like your average passenger car. Almost anyone could find a use for it and it would be handy to own. Even your average peasant wouldn't mind having such an item and should they find themselves in need of a sword that one would be a good choice. Now, could they use a +6 vorpal sword?
