Weapons System, in progress of being altered

Previous to now, we have had it that those with a weapon gain +1 CS to damage, and those fighting without a weapon lose 1CS to fighting against people who are using a weapon.



However, people have asked for a more elaborate system be put into place. Therefore I give you the first version of the weapons system.  Weapons not listed ( Bows, crossbows, and guns ) have special conditions based on the type and will not be listed here.







Daggers
- +1CS to Fighting on sneak attacks
- +1CS additional Damage on sneak attacks ( for a total of +2 )
- Can be hidden on a person ( A yellow or higher intuition roll needed to see this weapon if someone is looking to see if they are armed )
- Piercing Damage


Swords
- +1CS damage on normal attacks
- Disarm attempts only have -1CS fighting penalty ( Instead of the usual -2 )
- Slashing Damage


Two-Handed Swords
- +1CS damage on normal attacks
- Disarm attempts have no fighting penalty ( Instead of the usual -2 )
- Slashing Damage



Axes
- +1CS damage on normal attacks
- Opponents defend at -1CS unless they have a shield
- Slashing Damage



Two-Handed Axes
- +2CS Damage on normal attacks
- Opponents defend at -1CS unless they have a shield
- Giant axes are difficult to block with, so there is a -2CS Fighting on defending rolls.
- Slashing Damage



Whips
- +1CS on attacks, -1CS Fighting on melee defense
- Striking someone is melee rolls, and to bind someone uses agility rolls
- To break free of a binding, roll Strength vs Good ( unless the whip states otherwise ). An offensive crit or defensive both breaks the whip.

- Piercing damage



Staves
- +2CS Fighting on defense

On a botch or if the attacker crit on the original hit, opponent is immobilized for 1 round ( all actions succeed, as long as they do not botch ).
- Blunt damage



Chakrams
