Caesar's Revenge: Dacian Falx

3D Model

The Dacian or Thracian Falx is described as an Anti-Roman weapon with a punch. Often with a different degree of hook, they came in one handed and two handed variants. The two handed variant had a handle often matching the size of the blade. This gave alot of leverage at the cost of the user shield. but this trade seemed to pay off as it is devastating when matched up with a classic roman shield and gladius.

often theorized to be used purely as a hacking weapon by smashing through a shield then the point doing the damage by piercing roman helmets. I suspect it would also be a great hooking tool for pull and pushing at shield formations to try open a shield wall. This Flax is for the game: Caesar’s Revenge which you can check out progress on the dev at: pixelbarons.com
