I've recently moved to an area where I'm doing a fair bit of cross-gaming with Dagorhir, and I'm trying to figure out how to build a flail head that will meet the 4 oz minimum weight, while still staying close to the 16" minimum dimensions. I searched all over the Dag boards, but what I mostly saw was either A) people hating on flails and telling others to just build swords, or B) people parroting what everyone else was saying, while not contributing a viable construction technique. I would have asked this on the Dag boards, but I don't feel much like being flamed for asking about flail construction. You guys are usually above that.
So, any suggestions?
