Developed from a threashing inplement, a flail consists of a long handle, a short chain, and a metal-studded weight - either straight or in the form of a ball. The ball version is knoiwn as the morning star.
The weight is swung in an arc that can strike around a shield or parrying weapon.
Deceptive
An attack to unbalance and shock your target. You simultaneously do normal damage. If you manage to wound him, he loses one from his current shot unless he is immune to pain.
Great Blow
A Great Blow is a powerful all-out attack. It always requires two hands, even with a weapon that is normally used one-handed. It receives a +3 bonus to your damage, but you cannot do anything, such as an ActiveDefense, until your next shot comes up.
Great Blow does not combine with Bash.
