What does [W] mean on attacks in the PHB?

[W] is your weapon's damage die (e.g. D8 for a longsword, 2D4 for a falchion). The PHB tells you this on page 276, but you're not the first person to miss it. Frankly, such an important variable should have been defined right near the front of the book. Certainly before all the powers that use it.
