Longsword Revisions?

Currently, the Bastard Sword, Heavy Bastard Sword, and Longsword are all very similar - in fact the Longsword only differs from the HBS by 1 length and a tiny bit less weight.

So those weapons are rather clustered in their stats, and then there is a decent gap (in swords with stab) between those and the Two Handed sword - specifically in speed, going from 98 speed to 95. 

---

* I would propose either that the Longsword stats could be changed (and allow loomed longswords to be traded in for their LPs?
or adding a new weapon between the Longsword and the Two Handed Sword *


---

Either way, the new stats for the revised Longsword or the New Longsword (needs name) could be :

weapon length: 108
weight: 2.1
difficulty: 11
speed rating: 97
thrust damage: 23 pierce
swing damage: 37 cut
slots: 2
* NO secondary mode


Thoughts?

They should just buff the two handed sword and make it actually worth while in the middle between the longsword/HBS and Greatswords.

Buff thrust, speed 1 point each and price.

That's not a bad idea either.

Why can't we have both? Change the Longsword, it's redundant with the Heavy Bastard. Buff the two-handed, it's terribly underused.

Oh and btw. there's the market for your item to get rid of.

No but seriously, I do think making both wouldn't be a bad idea....two handed sword is horribly underused.
