Weapons
The easiest way to figure out what sort of weapon you have, if you can't tell by the name (i.e. a wickedly sharp machaira, or whatnot), is to swing it at something, or better yet, a few somethings. If you are swinging at a monster of some sort, and you can't look at it and see what sort of armor it has on, then it's best to swing a fist at it first. As you can see on the table below, a fist has a unique value for each of the seventeen possible armor types. The "hide" or "skin" of monsters who do not wear armor (like wasps or bears) will still fall into one of these categories. You might have to swing at a few different monsters to get a definite answer on what type of weapon you have. |

The following tables give AvDs and
Damage Factors for each type of weapon vs. each type of armor or armor
group.
