    But yeah, he was crazy nimble and strong and smart and shit, why'd he have to go kill himself? He'd make for a boss super race.

    Reach out and touch someone with Piercing Weapons

    shadowstriketrident.jpg

    dragonspear.jpg

    These are largely included for sake of including them. If you can carry only one weapon, a piercing weapon isn't your best choice. They however are not completely without merit. Generally designed to be used with two hands and at a range allows a person to defend themselves without being put in too much direct risk. While a zombie might be easily cut to ribbons with an axe, not being hit by said zombie can often be a better tactic.

    As well, many can be used as short ranged thrown weapons. this allows an even greater safety, however often retrieving thrown spears can be difficult.

    Tactics advice: Don't cheap out on the shaft. the main advantage to these is range. a break spear head isn't doing you any favours.

    learn to throw these properly, and accurately. It's a life saver.

    More then any other weapon, getting a running start with these can make a huge difference. try practising with a stationary target until you feel safe enough to run headlong at a rotter.

    I coulda sworn he took the Doctor's body, made a pyre, and threw himself into it after he gave him a funeral.

    Dracula tried it.

    Then he got killed with Excalibur, before it was returned to the rightful King of England.

    Who is a terrifying immortal half demon with the right hand of God, so, yeah. You aren't going to be getting that for your Dracula hunts.

    Look, I just felt everyone should know that the King of England is the demonic descendant of Arthur's bastard son Mordred.

    It's important political information when planning a vacation.
    Worse, he's an American. Basically, I wanted to lord that over the English.

    Last and probably the least, non fire arms Ranged Weapons

    bows.jpg

    20080818026.jpg

    Honestly, other then style, there isn't much going for these. Price can be an issue. A decent Crossbow will generally run you less then a lot of firearms, and they're generally cheaper to enchant. That said however, most firearms will easily outclass every type of other non fire arm weaponry. With the rare exception of a composite bow designed for and being used by a giant strong man.

    Tactics advice: Clearly, strike from a distance.

    Being generally more silent, these are often best served in ambushes right before things get loud. Try to take something out before they find you and you're forced to "get loud."

    I've been trying to work out a campaign where everyone's an undead kinda creature for awhile now.

    So far, class wise I have


    Paladins are Death Knights

    Sorcerers/Wizards are Liches

    Monks are Ghouls.


    And then I get stuck.

    I'm pretty sure a Frankenstein Monster would qualify as a sentient flesh golem. A construct but not necessarily undead either.

    The best offence is a good defence, and for that you need: Armour

    gothicplated.jpg

    2008evsbj22ultraballist.jpg

    Now range is a nice defence, but even on your best day there is a chance something will get up in your grill and smack you around. That's where armour comes in. Protecting your vitals and shielding you from the draining touch of wights and wraiths is fucking important. Being well protected is often a matter of life and death, and then usually undeath. Don't join their ranks, protect yourself.

    Tactics advice: comfort is often important, fights can take a while, and it's often too late to get dressed once you found your quarry. it is better to wear light armour that covered then have your super armour in the waits.

    As well, practice in your armour. Getting used to the restrictions and weight can be a life saver.

    keep it up and you too can be this guy:
