Weapons

Striking your opponent with a weapon is the primary way to interact with them in combat.

All Amtgard weapons are divided into a broad category such as ‘Melee’ or ‘Projectile’ as well as category-specific subtypes such as ‘Short’ or ‘Long’. Weapons in the same category and subtype have the same gameplay rules during combat. For example, a ‘Short’ melee weapon made to resemble an axe will have the same gameplay rules as a ‘Short’ melee weapon made to resemble a sword or club or even an atypical weapon like a lute.

The specific construction requirements for each weapon category and subtype can be found in the Equipment - Construction section.

Some game types and special rules will restrict the weapons a player can use. See Combat Activities for more information.
