	The '''war mattock''' is one of many large [[Two-Handed Weapons]] that is effective against players and creatures in all [[armor]] types. It evolved from tools used to dig trenches. Much like the military pick, the mattock bears a spike which is attached at a right angle to the haft. However, on the other side the war mattock bears a flat edge which was once used for digging. Since the war mattock does only crushing damage, it is possible to guarantee, with a high enough [[endroll]], a fatal result with [[Ambush\|aimed]] attacks to the target's head. This is due to the combination of game mechanics involving [[critical randomization]] and the instant death result from a rank 5 [[Crush critical table\|crush]] critical to the target's head.
