V9:Melee Weapons (General Rules)
From V9 Development
Developer Note: The current V9 Rules can be found here.
The V9 Wiki is currently obsolete. The Project Phoenix Google Doc is the main source of V9 rules going forward.
We will eventually rebuild the wiki as a comprehensive rules reference, but now is not that time.

General Rules (Melee Weapons)
Melee weapons represent swords, axes, spears, flails, pole-arms and anything else that can be used to directly slash or stab an opponent in close combat.
- All melee weapons require a rigid core.
- Approved melee weapons may be used to strike with their Strike-Legal surfaces and block or parry with any portion of the weapon.
- Melee weapons can never be launched or thrown as a form of attack. Javelins are the only exception to this rule due to their ability to act as both as melee weapon and a projectile.
