Originally posted by Azred: I can agree with that, NobleNick. In general, daggers are good only for the money for which you can sell them. A real fighter, in the generally-accepted use of the term, would use a sword, mace, hammer, or club against most foes.

You forgot axes and halberds.

Who uses halberds? I have occasionally but not often as they are not plentiful and I don't believe I have ever found one that has better than +3 THACO I believe there may be some random +4s but I am not sure. There benefits are the longer reach and they can do up to 1d10 points of base damage which is nice and I believe is the best weapon for a fighter to start out in Easthaven with has the plain jane halberds have Damage: 1D10, and THAC0 +1. Problem is finding your next weapon upgrade. I often start a paladin with a halberd and eventually put points in long sword.
