weapon models I would love to see if at all possible...

====
====

- the dao, also known as the dan dao (Chinese broadsword - used by the character Prince Zuko in the series "Avatar: The Last Airbender")
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dao (look under the sword type)

would probably be best within the scimitar series. perhaps if one could shrink the falchion models by a third, they would fit nicely there. that, or in the bastard sword series. (heavily leaning towards the scimitar series, given there is another curved weapon that is more like the bastard sword there)

- the tachi, which is a longer and older version of what eventually became the katana. I would love to see these in the bastard sword series. (take the katana graphic and extend it by around 25%)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachi

- the Ōdachi, which would have similar graphics to the nodachi but be shaped slightly differently. (not as desired as the dan dao to me, though.)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ōdachi

- the dadao, similar in shape and form to the falchion, but not as large as they made the falchion in NWN. probably best in the bastard sword column, if anywhere. the currently available jian serves well enough in the longsword series.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dadao

- that sword that Cloud has in Final Fantasy VII. I know there are graphics for it out there already... *dreams* and have that as a regular greatsword? please? would be nice... (a character named Momochi Zabuza from the anime/mange Naruto has one, but it is called a zanbato for some strange reason.)

- and I forgot if we have both the naginata and the nagamaki available to us already here.
