Critical Hit Range Error[edit]

According to DnD 3.5 The longsword has a crit range of 19-20. This lists it as only 20. Can you fix that? --Cerin616, Drew 11:22, 3 February 2008 (MST)

Got it, thanks. —Sledged (talk) 11:31, 3 February 2008 (MST)

Length[edit]

What is the length of a longsword actually?--Arphon 08:04, 21 April 2009 (MDT)

Longswords have long cruciform hilts with grips over some 15 cm (6 in) in length (providing room for two hands), straight double-edged blades often over 90 cm (35 in) in length, and weigh typically between 1.2 and 1.4 kg (2½ to 3 lb), with light specimens just below 1 kg (2 lb), and heavy specimens just above 2 kg (4½ lb).

To make it MORE complicated, what is a longsword? In D&D, a longsword is not what historians call a longsword. In D&D, a longsword is really more like an arming sword. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arming_sword. What historians call a longsword is what D&D calls a bastard sword.--Dmilewski 19:51, 21 April 2009 (MDT)
