Claymores are over six feet long on average. That's the reach 2 bit. As
far as the damage is concerned, it doesn't surprise me at all. The
claymore (claud hai mor) is probably one of the most fearsome swords ever
made. But the damn thing is so heavy, i'd put a ROF limitation on the
thing, say 1 swiong every other round unless your strength is greater
than or equal to five.
