Warhammer

One-handed clockwork melee weapon

Hands: 1H
Size: Large
Tech: Clockwork
Type: Melee
Range: Adjacent
Damage: +3 Blunt
Properties: Great blow, armor defeating

A rod of metal or hardwood just under a meter in length, fitted with a weighted head that has a sturdy spike of quality steel for punching through armor and a hammer head to shock what it cannot piece. Also known as the armor-breaker or military pick, this weapon evolved from the mace - there are several intermediate forms. The estoc is a thrusting sword variant; a stiff pointed metal rod used like a short pike, but otherwise similar in game effect.

Demolition crews and miners use something similar even today.
