Well, as i said before..i'm new to this all, so i know not whats all being done with the game, whats to be added and so forthe. All i can do is offer up suggestions, and hope i'm not laughed at. Anyway, not to complain or sound as if i am, but are there going to be new weapons added? Some just don't work well with the races playable, like dwarf's have some ok axes but where's an axe that's strong yet can be used with a shield? A Dwarf is not a dwarf without a good axe, and haveing to give up a shield to use one, well..sucks. No offence, it's just not fair they must give up a race trademark weapon in order to be better protected.
And other races should have more fitting weaponry, like a halfling's sling-staff. A lizardman's trident, maybe some shell armor and so forthe. now, it's just a suggestion, and i have no idea how hard it is to get new weapon graphics and add them in. i can slightly imagine since i used Rpg maker 2000, but that pales before the size of this project.
Another suggestion is maybe setting it up so only certain races can forge certain things? I mean, a dwarf who's a master carpenter and fisher isn't that accurate if it's a mountain dwarf. especialy when it comes to makeing things magical like magic wands and such. They detest magic, and usualy have what appears to be magic items which are infact simply things that are well crafted. (like in AD&D, Dwarven plate mail gives a lower armor class rateing then normal platemail due to it's density and craftsmanship). And i don't see little halfling's forgeing plate mail and like equipment, they have little to no need for such massive bulky items.
Again, it's just a suggestion and need not be taken seriously. Oh, and not to be a smart ass, but the weapon listed as a Morningstar is a flail. morningstars are long poles tipped with alot of sharp pikes at an end, usualy four to five foot in length, maybe smaller. Sorry, i just know weapons, since i rather love melee combat. Well, thanks for hearing me out..take care and Illarion is an awesome game so far.

Sean, the guy has a point. Don't add your half-wit knowledge to this topic.
@Gorim:
If we made the morning star a flail, we would have 2 flails...
That IS a morning star, flails are a little different than that.
As far as I know, morning stars and flails are almost the same.
You have a great idea concerning the different races making different things.
But, this would make great conflict once we start adding more classes.
Hopefully, by next version, we can drag the weapons/armor to the
"Naked Man" Picture that has the equipment boxes next to it.
That won't be TOO hard to do, since it is not different pictures just overlapping
items. And they won't have to be in different perspective.
So, just wait and see what happens...
