Two-Handed

Weapon	Prof.	Damage	Range	Price	Weight	Group	Properties
Kanabō	+3	2d4		40 GP	8.5 lb	Mace, Hammer	Powerful 2

A large wooden or iron shaft, covered in small protruding iron studs, designed to help get a better grip on the target to prevent deflecting blows and deliver a higher force to a smaller area. They were known for being immensely powerful, and so large that they could ignore the effects of armor.

Powerful 2: The weapon possesses the "Powerful" property. With it, the weapon gains an automatic +1 bonus to damage per rating. So, the weapon would do 2D4 + 2 damage, or on a 2[W] attack, 2[2D4+2] or, 4D4+4 damage. This boosts the average damage to 7, and the minimum damage to 4. However, it's maximum damage is only 10, less than the 12 of typical two-handed weapons. It is also utilized by the Martial Fighting Style Kenjutsu (4e Feat).
