Found on a SW website that no longer seems to exist this weapon doesn't have any d6 stats so feel free to post some so I can get an idea of what you guys think
And yes I think the website was for d20 sw
<Esoomian War-Hammer>
- This behemoth weapon is nearly 1.5 meters long with a heavy metallic-grain stalk and a hard-bounded leather wrapped handle. The fearsome head on this weapon is made of a compressed carbon, stronger than most known metals and as hard as diamond.
* Being the powerful beings the Esoomians are, these hammers are the typical weapons of their warrior-class. Within their hands, they have been known to render the armored-hull of vehicles into mere tin-cans.
Damage: Moderate
Skill Type: Melee
Range: Melee Range
Ammo: None
Ammo Cost: None
Ammo Rate: 0
Dual-Wield Ability: No
Stun: No
Automatic Fire: No
Bleeding: No
Manufacture: Custom
Availability: 3
Base Cost: 500 credits
Game Notes: None
IC Quote: "This weapon is much to big and heavy for most beings to even try and use. Even as a human, you'd have to be in top physical shape and I mean, TOP shape to lift the thing enough to swing it at something. I've only seen a few human men strong enough to do this, whereas a wookiee or them hulking esoomians seem to have little trouble making use of the hammer."

Really big Sledgehammer, nice.
'Course, you could get something like the Star Wars version of those Titanium Crowbars that are coming out of the former USSR areas... I like Crowbars... You can open crates, stuck doors, and minds with it. |

I'd have to say that would be sweet, but I would be the only Esoomian to design their own weapon, it'd probably look like a huge hammer too, but MA is still just a deadly 8) _________________ 'God gave you grace to purge this place

My GM gave this weapon a damage of strength plus 3d and a difficulty to use of 13
It has no max damage. It made sense that a species who can have 7d in strength would have weapons that can take advantage of that |

Don't forget there are some things that you can't kick... Especially if someone has designed a droid that has spikes on it or even worse one that has an electrical current running over it's armour... of course a carbon headed hammer with a metal haft is not going to stop that one
(MA? who/what is MA?)

Hmmm that makes sense...
But I can't really picture Esoomians having too many martial art styles.
This despite the fact that Oovavoo actually does have 10d in martial arts but it's more akin to wrestling than martial arts so if My GM ever actually lets me use the martial arts rules I'll only be able to use the techniques that a wrestler would possibly know |

Well some good armour could make up for the problem with spikes, but melee weapons would be cool, especially if you could have a huge spiked chain or a flail, maybe 5m long (how big are Esoomians anyway? I really want to know. ooh!! ooh!! Modified super armour, from fantastic techs that absorbs energy, made to fit an esoomian!!!!!!! _________________ 'God gave you grace to purge this place

Stay on target...
remember this thread is about weapons and equipment for species which don't fit the 'standard human sized' equipment |

I'll say it again...
"Crunch Have Plan! Crunch Have Rock!!!" "No Crunch, Bad Plan." "You right..." *Goes away, comes back* "Crunch have new, better plan! See, Crunch have BIGGER ROCK!"
It worked. And Crunch ain't that big, either! Built like a Durasteel ****house, but not that big. |
