Please note that the Cutlass is technically a type of Saber - having them both on the list may be a bit redundant. And why is the saber almost identical to the Rapier? Was that intentional or just laziness? Surely it would at least have a different weight? --Noirmachina 22:31, 26 August 2010 (MDT)

Swords as Clubs

Pretty much all two-handed slashing weapons should count as bludgeoning weapons against armor in some way.

Perhaps weapons in that weight class can count as bludgeoning against all armor. The attack "chooses" the best damage reduction between slashing and bludgeoning.

Those were the rules I had in mind, but I was going to put it in the individual weapon descriptions just in case (it's easier, more directly referenced).

Something like this: Whenever this weapon deals damage to Half Plate, Full Plate, or Enforced Full Plate, it uses the hardness usually reserved for bludgeoning weapons, allowing it to damage the armor more.

On the other hand, this may be way too complicated. There is a certain level of complexity and realism which we really just don't need. --Noirmachina 21:49, 28 August 2010 (MDT)

I may just get rid of the special hardnesses in the Armor page and give certain weapons the ability to bypass some hardness with Half Plate, Full Plate, and Enforced Full Plate. Quarterstaffs are bludgeoning, and they wouldn't be great against armor... We'll see.

New system, I'm calling it Wrecker. Check it out. --Noirmachina 19:50, 29 August 2010 (MDT)

I like it. --Drizztmainsword 22:09, 29 August 2010 (MDT)
