Book content

Over the years I've collected a number of pieces from all corners of our world: Aldorian morgensterns, Skadian bludgeons, elven bozdogans... Some of them are plain and unassuming. Others - mostly the ones from the east - are the work of art, a source of pride for their craftsmen.

A reader who isn't familiar with warfare might ask a question: what advantages can this simple weapon have over a good old sword? There's actually quite a few of them.

First of all, a mace is a perfect choice for a warrior who isn't experienced in fencing. Maces are easy to learn, easy to handle and maintain, and require only two things - strength and dexterity.

Secondly, maces make short work of mail shirts and light armor. Heavy plates are trickier, but even when maces fail to punch through them, a lucky hit can still daze the opponent for a few precious seconds.

Thirdly, maces don't get stuck in crushed armor and shields, which can be rather handy in the thick of a fight...

Fourthly... On the other hand, I'd rather not tire the esteemed reader by getting too verbose about this. For a change of pace, let's get a closer look at the short history of blunt weaponry...
