most effective melee weapon?

[Reverend Joe]

in terms of damage(RTW's attack-power)

Oh, I thought you meant realistically. In reality, the one-handed axe is one of the most underrated weapons of all time, because it tends to be unwieldy; with an experienced hand, however, a man with a one-handed axe and a shield is unbeatable, because the axe just keeps coming down. In RTW- I have no idea.

no no..you got me right.
what i meant was: what will do the most damage in real life. and as a clarification for "damage" i mentioned the "RTW attack-strength"
