12-10-13-9-15-15-10 LU? 18-10-13-7-13-13-10 BA? Maybe a 17-10-13-7-13-13-11 BA. Then I can get the morning star and great sword.

I don't often say this, but in this case, Dark Arena!!!
If you are set on running it, maybe 12-10-13-7-15-16-11 L or 14-16-13-3-15-13-10 TP

Good luck with those two semi-weapons!
14-16-13-3-15-13-10 TP is what we would do with it.

Consortium,
I'm remembering something I discovered a long time ago, and you triggerred it with the above statement,
I had a BA in the late 80's or 90's that had a fav of MS. I tried everything I could with that dang weapon and never got good results. Then I tried the same strats against the same warriors, with a MA and WH and got much inproved results with both. This lead me to believe that something was wrong within the design of the game with the MS. Is there any truth to that?? And does the same hold true for GS?
I never used a MS after that and have a few up coming BA's and ST's that might be missing out if it isnt true.
Thanks,
Tolbin

Well, the best answer we can give is that the war flail, followed by the morning star (We call them the "whiffle" and the "waffle") are the worst weapons in the game. The whiffle has even been known to "bounce off of" unarmored foes.
The GS is probably much better than both the above.
In general, the bashing weapons "suck" compared to the stick 'em and slash 'em groups. The game seems designed with an intent discourage basher weapons.
That said, we Consortiumites LIKE the QS, and do use an awfully lot of WH's and some MA's. And it is hard to get more damage than a HL or ML, when they hit.
We can also tell you that we still use all the basher weapons in search of THE ONE our offensive likes. But our tries with whiffles and waffles are few and far between.
(There are some managers who probably do not mess at all with most basher weapons!)

Looks like a good candidate for a speed BA 12-10-13-5-15-18-11 use WH unsuited and send him to the DA. If he comes back he deserves to stick around for a few more turns.
Otherwise if I had to keep him I wouldd go with hte above mentioned TP design.

Thanks guys. I don't know what to do. If I make that TP, everyone will hate me.
