Dagger

About the Dagger

Rule Number One: Use the pointy end of this weapon on your opponent. Rule Number Two: Use Rule Number One a lot. The Dagger is also the only Close Combat Weapon that is also a Range Weapon –– you can stab with it, or throw it at a more distant opponent. You will deal more damage by attacking the enemy in the back than the front with a dagger.
