BG Weapons

From Stormhalter

Overview

Weapons are used by players to attack and kill creatures found in the dungeons. Most weapons are melee weapons, and attack using the 'fight' command. Halberds, staffs and spears provide additional attack options, such as 'poke' or 'polekick', and bows must be knocked and then shot at a creature to attack. All weapons may be thrown at creatures.
