Weapons

I really like Second Edition, but I feel that they did some slightly odd things with a lot of the weapons. It's not a big deal, really, but I thought I'd sit down and re-balance them.

[[[FrivYeti/2eWeaponsRevised/WeaponRevisionRules]] | Here is where I put the guidelines]] for weapon revision.

General Revisions

Bow: A weapon with the Bow tag deals Strength + arrow damage, as usual. Bows do not have a maximum Strength bonus attached to them.

Overwhelm Tag: A weapon with the Overwhelm tag increases its minimum damage by 1 pt.

Piercing Tag: The Piercing tag is provided by weapons that are particularly good at either hitting a narrow point of armor, or bypassing it (very thin or focused weapons, generally) as opposed to just anything huge.

Slow Tag: A ranged weapon with the Slow tag (S) requires a Miscellaneous action to reload or access new ammunition.

Exceptional Weapons: Fine weapons do not exist. Exceptional weapons provide only two +1 bonuses. A bonus placed in Damage increases Damage by 2. Perfect weapons provide two +1 bonuses and a +2 bonus, which may be placed in Speed to reduce Speed by 1 or may increase Damage by 4.

Natural Attacks

||Name ||Speed||Accuracy||Damage||Defense||Rate||Tags|| Minimum || Cost|| || Fist || 5 || +1 || +0B || +1 || 2 || N || - || - || || Kick || 5 || +0 || +3B || -- || 2 || - || - || - || || Clinch || 6 || +0 || +0B || -- || 1 || C, N, P|| - || - || || Claws || 5 || +1 || +2L || +0 || 2 || N || - || - || || Bite || 6 || +1 || +3L || -- || 2 || C, N|| - || - ||

Note: Only characters with natural weapons may use the Claw or Bite attacks. Special creatures with more powerful natural weapons supplant these attacks, which are designed only as a baseline.

Armors

Armors can have the X tag, meaning that they can be concealed under heavy clothing, or the xx Tag, meaning they can be concealed under any clothes.
