A great injustice that we hope to one day fix.

It'll be a cool addition to Salem though. :)

Nobody used war axes in colonial US, its all about being tomahawked and pitchforkings.

Nor did they have claymores. I feel like a few crazy weapons are cool, too much and you infringe on the tone of the game.

Good point, and now I think that bow should be just a shop-acquired replacement for a musket. Now we need to invent the way to transmute bullets and gunpowder into arrows.

+1 for Tomahawks, much higher damage than an arrow but much more awkward to throw (ie you have to equip it to your hand but you can pick it up aftwards.)

Arrows should have a chance to be picked back up.
