[quote=GreivousKhan] Hmm, how powerful and widespread is magic? Like high fantasy Forgotten realms? Mid level like LOTR or Elder Scrolls? or low level City of Thieves or Conan? (the latter needing long rituals and components) [/quote] Let's go somewhere like Elder Scrolls level. Maybe the versatility of some of the low-level D&D spells. But high magic and orcs? Nah. [quote=GreivousKhan] Falchions are the defualt blades for D&D orcs. :P [/quote] I tend to agree. I think we oughta go for large, barbed ones that are heavy enough to hack down a human's shields. But we need to figure out polearms, besides the pikes, as well. [quote=GreivousKhan] Also if I still go with my Ogre cook, I think a morning star or mace would suffice. Maybe combo it with a huge as shield like those huge dark spawn in Dragon Age. (not their ogres but a different kind of spawn) [/quote] That works. A shield to go with the battering ram...which might be a 'lance' as far as he's concerned.
