FLAIL (bludgeon)
================
Weight: ~3-7 kg
Rank(s): 1st row

        The flail is a sturdy wooden handle attached to
an iron rod, a wooden rod with spikes, or a spiked iron 
ball. Between the handle and its implement is either a 
hinge or chain link. The weapon was originally used as 
a tool for threshing grain. Whether a flail is used by 
a foot soldier or a horseman, the principle is the same.
        Rumors tell that the flinds' flindbars are in 
fact a variation of the flail. This has not been 
substantiated, and the flinds have no wish to cooperate 
in the research.

Some skill(s) usable with the weapon: 
  Battlecry, bludgeons, lure, pound and pulverize.
