A '''mace''' is a [[attack types|blunt]] [[weapon]] that consists of a rounded or flanged weight mounted on the end of a handle. Despite similarities to a [[morningstar]] in appearance, a mace is 60% larger and has twice the contact area. Compared to the other native impact weapon, maces are twice the size of [[war hammer]]s, with twice the contact area. What this means in combat is, generally speaking, [[hammer]]s are better at punching through armor or damaging bones and organs, while maces do more tissue damage on unarmored opponents, leading to faster pulping of unprotected body parts. | A '''mace''' is a [[attack types|blunt]] [[weapon]] that consists of a rounded or flanged weight mounted on the end of a handle.
