Other Spot Rules?
Might do lots of these and build into skill system so mostly fighters use fancy moves

Use a 1H weapon with 2H +1 minimum damage
Small bow and quiver on belt 1 ENC - d4 covers smaller bows of kobolds, kids

Longbow ENC 3 man height, self bow is waist high 2 ENC small bow is forearm size
Crossbow variants
- stonebow shoot stones or bullets bump to lower damage dice
-repeater crossbow
Skill to use edged weapons as blunt bump to lower damage dice
Flail, Chain  can get a skill to ignore shields and entangle and get a fumble chance
Small races don't use great weapons and hand weapons are 2H for them
Will be some skills that allow a extra attack once per fight/turn
Some skills to resist armour
Might change combat times to segments

Probably will under skills describe all weapons as skills plus list skills each weapon can be used with....
