About the War Sword

A soldier's blade, plain and dependable, the war sword is the weapon that armies issue when a battle collapses to arm's length and blasters run dry. Balanced for the hand rather than sheer weight, it slashes and thrusts with a fencer's economy, favoring the disciplined wielder who fights with footwork and timing over the one who merely swings hard. Countless cultures across the galaxy field some version of it, from ceremonial guards to frontier militias, because a good sword never jams, never runs out of charge, and never needs a resupply. Its finesse rewards precision and speed, making it a fine companion for a duelist who values control. It lacks the reach of a polearm and the cutting fury of heavier blades, but as a reliable last argument it has few equals.
