+| Description || The character can fight with any suitable [[LARP Weapons|LARP-safe]] [[Weapon Categories|'''two-handed weapon''' or '''polearm''']], which must be held in both hands to fight (fighting with a long [[Combat#Stab-Safe Weapons|stab-safe]] weapon and a shield requires the [[Shield]] skill instead of Long Weapons and follows different rules).
-Long weapons must be held in both hands to fight, with one exception: a character with the [[Shield]] skill may wield a stab-safe weapon of between 42”/102cm and 72”/180cm length one-handed, holding the weapon roughly halfway along its length, with a shield in the other hand. When fighting with a weapon over 42”/105cm long held this way, the wielder may only make thrusting attacks, and may not use it to parry.
 '''Note: '''Any stab-safe spear must have a white ribbon visibly attached to it.
