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.

  • Sling (launches any loaded ammunition)
  • Slungshot (Weights and rope, swung close range)
  • Kusari-fundo (1 to 4 ft long, small weights)
  • 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)

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
