Typically most heroes are well-trained in the â€œ18 legendary weaponsâ€, but no REAL hero carries more than one melee weapon (or set of weapons) and one type of missile weapon.Â Wearing many weapons is the most blatant way of announcing that you are master of none; you will NOT get any H/S/B combat bonuses and, in effect, even loose some initiative. 
Donâ€™t worry if you loose the minimum stats to use a weapon: it is still used at your normal rank. 
Thrown weapons:Â any weapon not rated â€œRâ€ may be thrown, but at an [additional] -20. 
Improvised weapons: any object may be treated as improvised weapon, provided you clarly have the PS & MD to wield it adequately.Â If it used quite similarly to a standard weapon you have ranked then use the BC for that weapon -10.Â Thus the same hat-rack might be used like a glaive OR like a giant club, depending on the person brandishing it.Â If the improvised weapon cannot really be use as a normal weapon (e.g., a bed) the penalty is usually -30 to -50.
