Using Buildings as Weapons

Something worth pointing out though (which since comic physics, feel free to ignore), is that weapons typically need a lot more ST than just what it takes to carry them.
Lets look at a Greatsword (both it and the building have a mostly even weight distribution and will require two hands) the Greatsword has a weight of 7, but requires ST 12 to be able to use without penalties. Since ST 12 gives you a basic Lift of 29, that's close to needing 4 times the weight in Basic Lift. So even this super strong guy should be taking some penalties when trying to smack someone with the building.
