It's called Dragonbane. Go steal it.

...No I have it, but it is one-handed.... I also took the other blades swords - too bad that they show up as stolen.... I'm afraid to get arrested and lose them.

But I want a two handed beautifully crafted cruelly bada$$ proper katana - would look good with dragonscale as well!

Flails x 10
Staves/spears
Throwable objects (knives obviously but it would be nice to be able to throw stones as distractions)

And whips (Indy Jones-esque characters and foxy dominatrixes anyone?). Although they would be really hard to implement.

Off Topic:
I have been having good success shooting arrows to distract. The guards go to the sound and not the source of the shot (just don't hit anybody :smile: ) and then I sneak away.

On Topic:
Spears. Not so much for me but they are the classic guard's weapon and would also be perfect for the Forsworn. For my stealth char throwing knives would be great - with a 100% recovery rate. Crossbows for guards too - IMHO much more "guard like" than bows.

Other than that, the list is already pretty good. Not so into the Japanese stuff but some are. We already have Katanas so why not continue along those lines with a "blades dagger", etc.

I am a fan of "realistic" weapons, so I made my own mod that adds bunches of real weapons to the game and reduces the occurrence of non-steel.

I'd like to see bastard swords, or other similar types. A bastard sword can be used with one or two hands, depending on the situation. A weapon like that could offer some interesting flexibility to the game. Using it with one hand would use the one hand skill, but would let to use a shield for getter defense, or have a spell out. Switching to two hands would use the two hand skill, but would give you more powerful strikes for when you want them. All while carrying just one sword.

A silver lognsword thats made of silver not rusty coppery crap, like honestly if the blade was a bit longer and actually looked like silver I would use it all the time just for the cool factor. But alas, until such a day comes I will have to just use dawnbreaker *sigh; blows up all the undead in a room* oh well...

I would like to see this as well, however you may have better luck explaining it off as a hand-and-a-half sword. This is due to the unfortunate fact that older RPG titles such as baldurs gate and diablo depicted a bastard sword as a great sword that cloud strife would consider using rather than a skightly thicker longsword with an extra half added to the hilt. Something that really bother me in skyrim is how all weapons seem to be some kind of cross between short and longswords rather than having two seperate types. As such all the one handed swords seem... small

I'd like to see a very lethal and appropriately designed katana! The most deadly sword there is.... why can't we get one of those apart from it not being in "theme' with the TES universe as I know it - this is my first game.... And I would like the right sort of attack modes for it... go back and watch Seven Samurai!

The Katana is already in the game as a Blade's sword. As for "The most deadly sword there is", if you are talking real life, do a little reading on what the Katana really is, how it was made, why it was made that way, what it was good for,and what it was not so good for. As with any weapon, it had it's good and bad points.

It would be nice to see the advantages and disadvantages modeled too. One handed it would be slower than a longsword but with more damage and reach. Two handed it would be faster than a great sword but with less damage and reach.

Old time grenades just because when you enter caves you always get huge lump of skeleton or spiders and a grenade would sort that problem out fast and it would have to be crafted as well.

Wielding a longsword with only one hand would be ridiculous...

Dunno if anyone's already said this, but a morning-star weapon - spiked metal ball on a chain that you can swing about and whack badmen with.
I haven't come across anything like that yet in the game

Exploding cigars that you can purchase from Belthor. When the guard asks you to brew him up a mead hand him a cigar instead. While your at it give one to Nazeem too!

Longswords are One Hand Weaponry. You are thinking of Claymores and Greatswords. Those are Two Hand Weaponry.

Longswords, Shortswords, Broadswords, and Daggers are examples of One Hand Blades. Don't Believe? Play Arena, Daggerfall, Morrowind, and/or RuneScape. All have One-Hand Longswords in them.

Bomb crafting out of ingredients already in the game:

Mead bottle + Dwarven oil + moon sugar + void salts + roll of paper = napalm bomb. Mead bottle + frost salts + charcoal + moonstone ore + roll of paper = stun bomb.

You could use different size bottles for larger areas of effect: Alto wine bottle + 3x fire salts + 3x jazbay graqes + 3x Colovian brandy + roll of paper = large molotov cocktail.
