Default Re: Giant PC's Weapons

Well, here's my solution (sorry, the tables got a little messy):

Weapons for Giants
Weapon Human(base) Giant (wgt x 2.5) Huge Giant (wgt x 4) Colossal Giant (wgt x 5.5)
Dagger 0.25 0.6 1 1.4
Small Knife 0.5 1.25 2 2.75
Large Knife 1 2.5 4 5.5
Long Knife 1.5 3.75 6 8.25
Shortsword 2 5 8 11
Broadsword 3 7.5 12 16.5
Bastard Sword 5 12.5 20 27.5
Greatsword 7 17.5 28 38.5

Therefore, for a (Small) Giant:
Human Greatsword = Giant Broadsword (use Broadsword skill)
Human Bastard Sword = Giant Shortsword (use Shortsword skill)
Human Broadsword = Giant Long Knife (use Shortsword skill)
Human Shortsword = Giant Large Knife (use Knife skill)
Human Long Knife = Giant Small Knife (use Knife skill)
Human Large Knife = Giant Small Knife (use Knife skill)
Human Small Knife = Giant Dagger (use Knife skill)
Damage is rolled as for the Human weapon type using the Giant's ST.

So, a giant wielding a broadsword sized for a giant uses his Broadsword skill, but rolls for damage as if he possessed a human-sized greatsword wielded with the giant's ST.

Weapon Wgt Sw Thr Min ST Reach Cost
Dagger 0.25 0 thr-1 0 C 20
Small Knife 0.5 sw-3 thr-1 0 C,1 30
Large Knife 1 sw-2 thr 0 C,1 40
Long Knife 1.5 sw-1 thr 7 C,1 120
Shortsword 2 sw thr 7 1 400
Broadsword 3 sw+1 thr+2 10 1 600
Bastard Sword 5 sw+2 thr+3 10/11 1,2 750
Greatsword 7 sw+3 thr+3 12 1,2 900
Giant's Bastard Sword 12.5 sw+4 thr+4 14/15 1-3 1,650
Giant's Greatsword 17.5 sw+5 thr+4 18 1-3 2,250
