Won't Someone Think of the d100 Polearms?

Won’t Someone Think of the d100 Polearms? is a toolkit for crafting unique polearms for use in tabletop roleplaying games. It is system neutral, and it will be up to you to assign stats that make sense for the polearms in your system of choice.

In this toolkit you will find three tables to roll on to create a polearm: 

1. A table of 100 blade designs based on historical polearms!

2. A table of 100 special qualities (Angry, Wise, Invisible, Cabbage)!

3. A table of 100 (mostly) decorative shafts!

Now, go forth and fill your games with a bounty of the most useful yet most underappreciated type of weapon ever to grace the pages of our hobby!
