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.
