Clubs Information

Club

Anything from a hickory “tire-knocker” to a baseball bat to a piece of 2 x 4 with a rusty nail.

Extendable Baton

An extendable baton consists of either a hard shaft or flexible-coil shaft that telescopes out of a handle when flicked sharply. When collapsed, the baton is more easily concealed than a standard club. When extended, it has a concealability of 5.

Mace

A mace is essentially a club with a weighted mass, often studded or spiked, on the end. This inflicts stun damage.

Mace, Spiked

Made to inflict physical damage, this spiked weight on the end of a stick is made to penetrate even armor.

Rattan Stick

A lightweight club popular with martial artists, especially the fast-moving techniques of Filipino stick-fighting. Because the sticks weigh very little, treat these clubs as flechette ammunition for determining damage. Against unarmored opponents, a rattan stick inflicts (STR+1)S Stun damage, and against armored targets the damage is (STR+1)M Stun and the target uses his ballistic armor or double Impact for the Damage Resistance Test, whichever is higher.

Sai

A three pronged defensive weapon that originated in Okinawa. While the sai can be used to inflict Stun damage, its primary function is to trap and hold an opponent's weapon, thereby disarming him. A sai adds 2 dice to any attempt to disarm an opponent wielding a firearm, or melee weapon with a Reach of 1 or less.

Sap

A small, springy club, specially designed for concealability.

Stun Baton

The standard riot-control weapon, this weighted stick delivers an electrical charge.

AZ-150 Stun Baton

This high-energy stun baton was designed for use by security forces against orks, trolls, and other large opponents. Though it delivers a bigger jolt than the standard stun baton, it carries only enough charge for 12 uses. The baton can be recharged at a rate of 1 use per five minutes of recharging.
