General Details
Name: Mace
Type (Category): Weapon (Melee)
Reference: Tactical Operations: Advanced Units & Equipment (p. 102)
Description:
A stylized club designed for close-quarters arena combat, the ‘Mechscale mace first appeared in the stables of Solaris VII as a stylized form of the basic hatchet. As popularity (and the sheer number of visual styles) grew, Solaran engineers developed a heavier and more distinctive weapon, though it wasn’t until the early 3060s that the weapon reached a reliable, production-level standard.
Game Rules:
The Mace attacks as a Physical Weapon Attack with a +1 to-hit modifier, but may use the Hatchet’s ability to use the Punch or Kick Hit Location Tables, applying all those rules appropriately.
If a Mace attack misses its target, the Attacker must make a Piloting Skill roll with a +2 target modifier to avoid falling.
