Yeah, the lack of good weapon diversity kinda bummed me out when I found out about it. When I got the game and started up my first group, I built a Dwarven Fighter as my primary melee guy, and had him focus on Axe as his weapon skill of choice since that just fit the character.
It wasn't until later that I learned of how few axes there really are in the game (and particularly how few *good* axes). I'm still working on the game with the group though, and refuse to ditch my fighter. Heck, I decided to keep him focused on axes anyway, just for the heck of it.
Ah well... next time my fighter'll probably use either swords or polearms (or both)
