Re: [HOE] fightin': florentine (Hopler?)

[Michael <martin_etc@yahoo.com>]

Yeah, and I get a bad image of my junker doing a weaponsmith
thing with this. He used weaponsmith/shield to make a nice sword
(retractable; I think I set it to STR+3d8 damage. Because he's
weak, it does 3d8 damage, since his 2d6 does nothing)... I
suspect he got the idea from some B-Movie... :)

Now if he does that with a knife-sized one too...
