Several new melee weapons will be introduced in the next BG release. The Hirschfänger was used by hessians soldiers who joined the revolutionary war on the british side and fought in the famous battles of Trenton and Bennington. The next release will add the uniform selection rather than a class. Every uniform comes with a unique melee weapon which will not only differ in the model itself.
