SUPER FUNTIME EXP EXTRAVAGANZA BONANZA NOMINATIONS THREAD

We should be able to host another plate battle for exp and fun in a few days.  However, we have to decide on the next weapon.

Rules for nomination:
1. No ranged.  We already did arbs, but if we did bows or throwing, those without power draw or power throw would not be able to equip the weapons.
2. 15 Str maximum requirement.  To maximize compatibility with most builds.
3. Try to minimize proficiency advantage.  Basically if we chose some 2h sword, it would just be 2handers slaughtering all the other classes.  1h/2h weapons are a good choice.  Pole arms get screwed a little bit, but there are also 2h swords with pole mode.
4.  Has to be effective enough to not glance consistently.  Our goal is to kill almost all the tickets before time runs out, in order to maximize exp.  So blunt and pierce weapons or high cut are preferable.  At some point I'll have enough -2 armors and we can work down to lower end weapons.

What would you guys like to see next?

A few ideas I've had so far.

Hammer.  Hilariously short, knockdown.  Would probably have to wait for -2 armor.

Cudgels.  Similar to hammer but also 1h/2h.

Pikes.  Phalanx battle.  Would be madness.

Military sickle.  Good damage, 1h/2h.

Great Sword.  2h/pole.  Good stab damage in pole arm mode.

Honestly I wish there were more weapons that you couldn't block with.  Most of the daggers simply don't do enough to get kills quickly enough, rondel excluded.

It will just deteriorate into dehorsed 2h heroes running buck wild.

Another thought would be to purposely use illegal weapons on horseback.

I was thinking pikes would be a good choice due to the pierce damage, and the fact that having proficiency in polearms isn't really that important (compared to using a 1h or 2h w/o proficiency it's very noticeable). 

If it was possible for us to all avoid being perma-banned, it would also be fun to have everyone riding a donkey with a pike.

All pike battle meta-game: row of folks downblocking with a row of folks behind stabbing past them.

For pikes to be relevant they need something to keep one block direction from being total invincibility.

Angles.  I would lay down a bunch of siege ladders to determine the playable area.  You would be allowed to go around the enemy.  We aren't talking strictly line battles here, that was more of a mechanic to make sure arbalasts were getting kills and people weren't hiding in trees all day pretending to be Navy Seal snipers.
