I've seen that scenario........ All it takes is a weapon focus (Rating
15) in the hands of a troll Physical Adept.

(The guy killed a dragon with one hit)

....I can see the people firing up already about the absurdly high rating
of the focus, but bear in mind that it's easily within the rules to do
it, for only 15 Karma, given enough orichalum, money and time .

Perhaps the enchanting rules need looking at as well (I'm not sure if
that's been covered already; I've been away)
