Look, I dont care: I will continue to play with no melee weapon at all, in a blue tunic, and do my thing, so this doesnt affect me, but if you want the sword included for aesthetic reasons, it might well be included, but giving it abilities no other weapon has is going to keep it out. I want to see it in, cause I think it looks cool, and goes well with eastern helmets etc....but hate for armour bonus new mechanic will mean it either goes in as any other weapon, or all other weapons need revisiting to see which need armour piercing bonus and which dont, prices revised, etc. I was just offering advice to those who want it in, but if it HAS to have a gimpy "bonus to armour" tag and you can write a new mechanic like that into the game, get it accepted by devteam and chadz, good luck to you.
