Five - Handed Sword
Sharpness: MS.
Damage: 3d9 dmg
HSYTKTGA: 23 X2.
Weight: 0.75 Rotary Tiller.
Cost: 780 Monetary Units (MU)
Description:
The only remaining artifact of the "Sword-Handedness Wars". Originally designed as a cost-saver using a modification of the failed three-handed sword as a prototype, this particularly awkward blade with handles at both ends and a set of two handles side-by-side at the center of the blade. Requires three people to adequately swing. This is accomplished in the following fashion:
1. The "swinger" holds the blade with his left hand. Right-handed versions are quite rare.
2. The "runner" holds a handle at the opposite end with both hands.
3. The "carrier" holds the center handles above his head.
4. In tandem, the three warriors run toward the target in a roughly swinging fashion. This will theoretically damage the enemy, although success in actual combat conditons has never been verified.
