Well in ADOD 3 ed you can sneak attack with all simple and martial weapons and even with bows and xbows, it is the attack of oppotunity against an enemy letting his guard down for example flatfooted or flanked, if a thief wihish to do so he can use a blunt weapon and even a blackjack or cudgel to deal out subdual damage knocking someone uncunsious.
And yes, itīs annoying not to be able to secretly sneak in and knocking people unconsious and get XP for it, I mean if you are a good thief you might have problem with killing everyone but a gready player wants XP and thus knocking unconsious(beware my mighty spelling ) becomes useless..
I think that a good thief should get more XPīs for not killing an enemy. Every fool can die or kill, but only a master can disarm or take out an opponent with harming him!
