Broadsword

From Hellgatewiki.com

The broadsword has been seen in posters named the "Templar Broadsword" and just plain "Broadsword." We're guessing the later name is the official one in the game. This weapon has been seen in a variety of screenshots, but doesn't have an official page on the Hellgate site yet, so there's no official mod slots information.

The broadsword was detailed lovingly in the "Avalon" topless templar artwork in Playboy magazine. You can see it leaning against the rock to her side.

The broadsword was used in the E3 2005 cinematic. It's the one the female templar uses at the start against the Stalkers, before throwing it into the Shock Minion's neck. We thought that was just a bit of artistic license, but new information from the March 2007 GDC show says there will be a throwing sword skill for Templars.
