If the wook is going melee skip the vibro axe and go for some class with the Ryyk Blades of wookie creation - it maxes out at 7d as well but I can picture cooloer wook techniques with their own blade.
As for the claws, I like the physcological (and cultural) limitations on using them but would only give them a 1d bonus for damage - as per the 'claws probably not having been designed for hunting' discussion earlier - if they were used on a door or a stormie

| Excluding the movie episode three, they live in a world where they had to create there homes and lives there live in the trees due to there being things bigger and badder than they are on the surface. I think they are claws and are used just like any other animal that has claws. |

As far as I know, Force Pikes dont have an upper limit of how much damage they can do. A tuned-up Force Pike in the hand of a raging wookiee can do like 11d+2 if I remember correctly. That is one of the reasons of why they do not exist in our games...  |

force pikes DO have an upperlimit, of 7d, as per the rules of engagement (rebel spec force handbook)

Just look at the beginning of the "weapon stats" book |

*sigh* /flips to second hard drive to find gry's book...ah,
If your talking about the combat gloves I think that that +2 bonus in d20 translates to about 1d in d6.

No, that's actually just STR+2, in D6.
The damage limit is a funny thing, cause WEG forgot to apply one for many of its melee weapons, and usually when people convert stats from d20, they forget to apply one as well....

Most entries I seen on climbing claws get the same bonus damage from them as they give climbing bonus. Besides, a raging Wookiee with max strength, if he's gonna do 8D or 10D, the target is dead one way or another... |
Well, 'climbing claws' and claws developed for combat might not be equally effective. Also, if theres no damage listed, why use a 'silly' example as the Defel as guidance. To be fair there are other example of 'bad' game design when it comes to natural weapons (as compared to, for example, a vibroweapon).

Most claws for other creatures which ARE for combat are at most Str+1d+1.. Str+2 or Str+1d is the ave... Since they are NOT made for combat i see them at most being Str+1.
