Consider Weighted Thrown Weapons
I am heavily considering splitting out several weapons into their own category. These weapons are weighted and usually involve some kind of spinning motion to increase velocity. Because they're long, thin, and flexible, these should grant bonuses to parry, to disarm an opponent, and to strangle an opponent.
| Name | AP | Parry | Harm | Type | Notes | Cost | Mus |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sling† | 3 | −5 | 3 | B | Reload: 1AP | 10𝕤 | 2 |
| Slungshot† | 3 | 0 | 0 | B | 0𝕤 | 0 | |
| Surujin‡ | 3 | 0 | 0 | B | 0𝕤 | 0 | |
| Kusari-fundo† | 3 | 0 | 0 | B | 10𝕤 | 0 | |
| Kusari-gama‡ | 4 | −1 | 5 | B,S | +1 vs Parry, Disarm +2, Grip +3 | 250𝕤 | 4 |
| Meteor hammer‡ | 5 | −3 | 8 | B | +2 vs Parry, Disarm +1, Grip +2 | 200𝕤 | 5 |
| Rope dart‡ | 3 | 0 | 0 | P | 0𝕤 | 0 |
- Sling – A strip of rope or leather cord attached to a pouch. The wielder can launch any small blunt object — like a stone — with a few good swings.
- Slungshot – An improvised maritime weapon (Weights and rope, swung close range)
- Kusari-fundo – (1 to 4 ft long, chain capped by small weights)
- Kusari-gama – A Kama (see One-handed Axes) attached at its base to a heavy metal weight by a 3–5 foot length of chain. The weighted ball can be used to strike opponents and wrap around limbs or weapons, and entangled foes are easily dispatched by the sharpened blade.
- Surujin – (6 to 9 ft long, rope instead of chain)
- Meteor hammer – (6 to 9 ft long, weight size varies)
- Rope dart – (10 to 16 ft long)
Next, I think at least nunchaku should be added to One-handed bludgeons. It's like a mini flail.
Finally, we have devices meant to capture a creature. Maybe these are just pieces of equipment and they use this weapon category.
- Bolas
- Net
- Lasso
Combat Style
How about fewer weapon styles and describing it by how you use the weapon.
| Type of weapon | Style | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Hand-to-hand | Bashing | |
| Daggers | Stabbing | |
| One-handed Straight Swords | Stabbing/Chopping | |
| Two-handed Straight Swords | Chopping/Lunging | |
| Curved Blades | Chopping | |
| Fencing Swords | Stabbing | Emphasis on parrying and dexterous strikes |
| One-handed Bludgeons | Swinging | |
| Two-handed Bludgeons | Swinging | |
| One-handed Axes | Chopping | |
| Two-handed Axes | Chopping | |
| Polearms | Swinging/Lunging | |
| Spears | Lunging | The quickest route to impaling your foes |
| Whips | Throwing | |
| Chains & Ropes | Throwing | Rotation to increase strength of impact, fluid and versatile |
| Thrown | Throwing | |
| Bows | Firing | |
| Crossbows | Firing | |
| Firearms | Firing | |
| Shields | Bashing | Parry ranged attacks and collide with combatants |
| Snares | Throwing | Mostly used to entangle and immobilize opponents |
Bashing, Stabbing, Chopping, Lunging, Swinging, Throwing, Firing
- Add the slingshot to the bows entry
- Add a one-handed whip
