Exotic Ranged 2 Handed Piercing This weapon deals 1d12 damage regardless of size. All penalties for range are doubled when firing an arquebus. When a 1 or 2 is rolled on an attack roll, the weapon backfires dealing 1d6 damage to the wielder and fouls. It takes 1d3 rounds for a proficient user to clean a fouled arquebus, and 1d20+10 minutes for a non-proficient user. Point blank shot benefits double for the arquebus. On a damage roll of 11-12 the arquebus deals an additional 1d12 of damage. Should an eleven or twelve be rolled on this die, the process is repeated until a 10 or lower is rolled. Critical damage applies only to the first die. If the ammunition gets wet (even while loaded) the powder becomes useless. If it does so while loaded, it must be cleaned as if fouled. Loading an arquebus requires a full round action that provokes attacks of opportunity.

The second does 1d6 piercing with a 20/x4 critical. The pick side also has a +3 to hit against foes in half or full platemail. The latter does 1d6 damage with a 19-20/x2 critical and has -2 to attack when fighting armoured foes. This weapon does double damage if there are no obstacles (walls, creatures, etc.) of medium or larger size adjacent to the wielder. Bill Guisarme 20GP 12 Lbs. 2d4 20/x3 Martial Two Handed Slashing The Bill Guisarme is a bizarre combination weapon derived from the bill hook. It consists of a standard Guisarme blade with spike attached to the back. This spike can be attacked with for piercing damage if there are no obstacles (walls, creatures, etc.) of medium or larger size adjacent to the wielder. this attack does 2d3x2 damage and has a +4 to the attack roll if against a creature wearing full or half plate. When attacking normally the weapon is considered a standard guisarme. Fauchard 18GP 10 Lbs 1d10 20/x4 Martial Two Handed Slashing The fauchard consists of a scythe blade on a long pole, parallel to the shaft as opposed to perpendicular. The weapon can be used to make piercing damage at a -2 to the roll rather than a minus four. Fauchard Fork 20 GP 10 Lbs 2d4 20/x4 Martial Two Handed Slashing This is an attempt to improve the fauchard through the inclusion of a fork on the back of the blade. As such, it gains a plus 2 bonus on opposed attack rolls on disarm attempts. More Later
