Hi everyone.
I was thinking of weapon familiarity and the problems it brings up, and then I had a thought. Why not ONLY give each race weapon familiarity with weapons that have their name in the title?
Then create those weapons, something like two per race, e.g. ...
For halflings the halfling skiprock and the halfling sling staff
For half orcs the orc greataxe orc double axe
For dwarves the dwarven warhammer and the dwarven waraxe
For elves the elfin sword and elfin bow.
For gnomes the gnomish pick and gnomish dart
For humans the manish pike and manish broadsword.
Half elves choose the race they were raised by, and are familiar with that race's weapons.
That gets around all the problems with martial weapon familiarity for fighters, halfling familiarity with slings etc in a nice simple way.
