The way I'd work range into my queue system:
All melee weapons are Short, Medium, or Long. Fists and daggers are short, swords and maces are medium, and spears and polearms are long.
If two creatures attack each other at the same time, the longer weapon hits first, and can stagger the other creature and prevent them from attacking or kill them outright.
If you have a Short weapon, you can take an action to "engage" a target with a medium or large weapon. In doing so, your target takes a free attack on you, but once engaged they can't hit you at all.
Medium weapons can't engage, and are strictly inferior to short and long weapons in terms of range, but have more damage/versatility/special skills to compensate.

The one problem with that, I'd say, is the "engaging" of medium weapons with weapons like daggers. Makes sense for spears etc, but a couple of dagger slashes won't prevent an armoured guy with a sword from gutting you, if only from behind. Also means you don't need to balance as much, not "engaging" people with medium weapons.

Rest seems very sensible.

I've got a testable system here, I think.


two people wanna try murdering each other for me?

[Whisperling]

Sure, count me in.

We can do three.

What weapons do you want? I don't have rules for dual wielding so choose one. Anything above a long sword (ie greatsword, spear, zweihander, etc) is gonna be two handed for now.

I have to create some cards for the specific weapon and its stats so I gotta know that first.

[FallacyofUrist]

For bonus crazyPoints, let somebody else choose the weapons, then distribute them as you will!
Or not, if you don't want to.

Chainsaw!
Throwing axe.
Longsword.

[Radio Controlled]

Dual sharpened boomerangs (with accompanying gloves, if you wanna be nice) as weapons would be my entry.

Whisperling, Spaz and Egan, can chose their own weapons.

If they choose weird things, they're probably gonna be at a disadvantage.

Let's say... throwing knives. Was tempted to go with a shield with a bladed/spiked rim, but not if it'll be incredibly ineffective as compared to conventional stuff.

Melee, not ranged. Just a knife works.

Ok.

[Whisperling]

That works.
