CLUB (bludgeon)

Weight: ~2kg

Rank(s): 1st row

Most clubs are stout, hardwood sticks, narrow at the grip and wider at the end. This simple weapon has been used since mankind first began using tools. Anyone can find a good stout piece of wood and swing it; hence the club's widespread use.

The club is the ancestor of the mace, since warriors eventually fitted their clubs with spikes and metal heads in order to increase their deadliness.

As centuries passed, cultures began embracing civilization and advanced technology. They looked down on the club as a primitive tool and a barbarian weapon. Peasants often arm themselves with clubs, sometimes adapting them by adding iron spikes, resulting in the morningstar.

Centaurs are often seen wielding clubs, since sylvan settings have ample wood for fashioning such weapons. Ogres also use clubs, since the weapon does not require brains to use or make.

Some skill(s) usable with the weapon:

Battlecry, bludgeons, lure, pound and pulverize.

See also:

Battle mace, blackjack, club, cudgel, flail, hammer, ice pick, jo, mace, maul, morningstar, pick, staff, war mattock, warhammer and whip.
