CEP Weapons and crafting.
« on: March 23, 2010, 04:17:57 PM »
I was wondering if perhaps a few of the CEP weapons could get added to the metal smithing / silver gilding tables.  Specifically I'm thinking of the Falchion and the Maul.  Might just be me, but I'm fond of both of those weapon types.  Fond enough not to care if I can be specialized in them with feats.  Throwing axes, too, would be nice to see in player craftable versions.

Not exactly something of real importance, but I thought I'd mention.

Also a fan of the Maul. Of course.

Yes, particularly the falchion (my favorite type of sword). It's too bad that we can't get feats for them, but I'd still make a character just for them if there were steel/silver/other versions of them around.
Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.

Actually, thinking about it earlier today, heavy maces would be another nice add.  Get sick of seeing every cleric with a morningstar.

I agree, staves, clubs, heavy maces, mauls.  All those would be great.

Also, some clue or hint about cold forging?  No one seems to believe you can nevermind know how to do it!

Heavy Mace would be badass, same with the Maul (a proper Warhammer war hammer, if you will). Blunt weapons are really gimpy in D&D for whatever reason. Despite the fact that they were pretty much the only way to defeat Chainmail consistently in melee combat. And the flanged mace was really all you had for crushing through plate.

Short spear would be cool too. One-handed spears are strangely lacking from video games, despite the one-handed spear and shield being the most common weapon combination used in the history of human warfare up till the development of mass-manufactured small firearms.

Can we just get a comfermation that Cold- Forging can be done?.. Because if it can I will figure it out.

Given time and the skill of my crafter.

P.S. Thanks Bad Bud for being a great example.!.
