I think that is the long sword that can attack diagonally
I was curios and checked it again, but in the German version, we have the following melee weapons:
Short Sword - 2 dice, diagonally, 150 gold, not for the wizard
Axe - 2 dice, 150 gold, can be cast in a straight line, not for the wizard
WHAT! The Short Sword in the German edition could attack diagonally? Then finally a mysterie from the past has been solved. In the Dutch version, the short sword was useless. But this extra diagonal abilty makes it useful. I guess this was an errata on the Dutch version. Great to know. Any pictures?
Edit: I just checked the German Short Sword at YeOldeInn.com and you're correct! It can attack diagonally. GREAT DISCOVERY! Have some GG ;)
For clarity, I'm talking about the European version of HQ. I just noticed that there are English versions of the Short Sword that can attack diagonally too. Only my Dutch version has the useless version of the sword (without diagonal attack). eBay, here I come!
Here you are ;)
