Voulgue - Shortened Voulgue

[Swadius]

The longer a weapon is, the slower you will swing with it, thus you deal less damage. At least that's how I see it.

Yes, but that's dealt with by the speed bonus and swing mechanics. Any weapon doesn't deal as much damage as if getting it up to speed, in short mentioning weapon length only deals with how long and arduous it takes to gain momentum in the weapon, which is again, already included in the swing mechanics. The damage stat that is associated with weaponry is I think more closely linked to the peak momentum and the damage that the weapon can inflict.

A long weapon will likely be heavier, but taking into consideration the momentum that it gains once it has reach the same killing radian of the arc it's going to deliver much more power than a shorter weapon.
