Post by: exoleet on April 06, 2008, 10:29:00 pm

In medieval times, many empires used wooden weapons for the purpose of sparring without harming the other person. This should be implimented.

Elven caravans may carry wooden weapons if you're lucky.

Aling; The wooden weapons still do 50 percent damage. I'm talking about either nerfing the damage wooden weapons do, or creating a new classification of weapon.

Elven wood crafts are special.   There should be training weapons eventually, though.   This thread, as I've shown, is history repeating itself though.
