Battle Axes

Axes, first introduced as tools of the lumberjacks thousands of years ago, made their debut as weapons on the battlefield in the hands of the barbarian. While considered to be too uncouthe and too unwieldy for use in a standing army, the axe was a perfect weapon for the indigenous peoples across the world who needed a way to defend themselves just as much as a way to survive. It was in this light that the axe, upon the introduction of the saw, became a main weapon of war versus the heavily armored, slow moving forces of the medieval standing armies. Axes had the ability to either completely eviscerate an unarmored opponent, or cause blunt force damage enough to rupture an enemy's armor and cause them to fall, giving the axeman a chance to deliver another fatal blow.

It's the unwieldy but powerful nature of the axe that gives it an advantage in trained hands, giving even those with relatively weak muscles but the ability to build momentum a chance to deal devastating pain.

Battle Axes are considered 6-slot weapons due to their size and shape, and are granted an automatic Armor Piercing capability, lowering the damage soak granted by armor by 5% per attack (not per hit), not to exceed 20% reduction.
