Armageddon is best when it's actually harsh and brutal, not when we're only pretending that it is.

Hmm. Just cause I feel like it.

Flail: Spiked things on chains freeswinging from the shaft.

Mace: Club with a thickened, metal head at the end.

You win Armageddon, congratulations!  Type 'credits', then store your character and make a new one

Not sure about kirisigi.

Punch dagger has a blade that generally very broad, and tapers very quickly to the point.  The dagger's handle is basically rotated so that instead of gripping it the way you normally hold a dagger, you stab with 'punching' motions.

If you read the description of a kirisigi dagger, you should be able to determine roughly what it looks like.  It's not too pretty, from what I remember.
