Re: So what should magic weapons look like?

Well, it looks like I might have judged Ed's idea too harshly. When it's delivered like this it sounds cool and makes sense. I think it would work for one, unique item but I'd still hate to see all magic weapons with these characteristics.

I have a criticism of Hroth's Axe. Since it isn't an actual weapon of war I don't think it should have a bonus to hit. I'd even go so far as to give it a -1 to hit. It would still be awesome against armoured opponents but actually not as good of a weapon against unarmoured (AC 12) types. The +1 to damage could stay or not. I have not problem with it but I also don't think it's necessary.

I think the -1 to hit would fit the weird and the story better.
