Bayonets
Published on 27 December 2012 - 02:31:49

So I've finally gotten a copy.  And the biggest complaint?  STILL no stats for a Bayonet (This was also brought up in the Beta).  Or even mention of the Entrenchment tool used as a weapon (I'd probably have that just be a primitive axe at least, based on some Deadliest Warrior eps with modern Special Forces demonstrating why they're trained to use them as weapons and consider them more useful than their combat knives at that).   But Bayonets?  Seriously none?  They're mentioned in numerous places as a pretty common thing.  Yet nothing.

Now, a Spear makes for a pretty obvious comparable.  But again, really?  Not included? Major missed opportunity.

Bayonets are represented by the Melee Attachment upgrade. Treat them as a spear when attached to a lasgun/shotgun/what have you, and a knife when detached. As for entrenching tools, they're an Improvised weapon, or a Sword without the Balanced quality if you're feeling generous.

Orkses never lose. If we win, we win, if we die, we die fightin' so it don't count. If we runs fer it, it don't count neither 'cus we can come back fer anuvver go, see?

Wow, in my search for them, I completely missed the upgrade in the list.
