Hammer

Version 0.29: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

This page is about the weapon. For the obsolete card, see Hammer card.

A blunt striking weapon, essentially equivalent to a mace. "The hammah that John Henry swung, It weighed over nine poun', He broke a rib in his left han' side, And his intrils fell on the groun', And his intrils fell on the groun'." -Onah L. Spencer, _John Henry_. Early 20th cent.

This weapon falls into the Maces & Flails category. It is a one handed weapon, and it is better for the strong.

The hammer is a novelty weapon with the same stats as a mace. It can only be found in vaults, most notably Crazy Yiuf's cottage.
