Stats for a Hooked Spear.
As used in 19th century China or carried by Mordred -Excalibur version-into battle). The Weapon might vary in length from a larger 5 foot long version to a shorter 4 foot long version used for close quarter combat.
My thought is this would be in 2 varieties:
A)
One-Handed Martial Weapon-
Short Hooked Spear (1D6, X3, 20) weight 5 pds, attributes: Block, Trip and Disarm.
B)
Two-Handed Martial Weapon-
Hooked Spear (1D8, X3, 20) weight 7 pds, attributes: Block, Trip, and Disarm.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks for your input--
First, this is rules, not advice. Second, I think what you're trying to make already exists. Hooked Lance
Thanks for the advice. I looked up some pictures of the two (Hooked Lancer verses a Hooked Spear) and there are differences in size and use. You can't use the Hooked Lance due to size to block weapons during hand to hand combat like say was shown in the movie Excalibur (during the fight between Lancelot and the King). That weapon is the short version of the weapon and what I am looking to try and make. This weapon breaks when Excalibur is broken over it.
