rules. This part of the book offers rules for them.
Ironfist
Originating from the traditional Ogre sport of pit-fighting, Ogres often cover their off-hand with some kind of shield, spiked gauntlet or
heavy glove, known as ironfist. This can be used to bat aside even the strongest attacks in a similar way to a giant buckler, or merely to
smash an enemy's face into an unrecognisable pulp. They have not seen widespread military use outside of the Ogre Kingdoms but are
popular amongst pitfighters of other lands too. They are weapons of the parrying weapon group and require one hand to use. They have
the following rules.
