Reduce the size of ground weapons

Some weapons in the game can be quite massive.

Admittedly, the more recent additions aren't as massive as the older models but I hope the older weapons will eventually get sized down accordingly.

    My favourites are the Bat'leth swords. In canon, they are meant to be an arms' length or so. In the game they are longer than a person.

    I think you need to go watch the telly a bit and come back and revise that statement. They're depicted on-screen as around 1.5 metres.

    According to the article:

    In the Klingon language, the bat'leth was originally referred to as batlh'etlh, then was shortened to betleH.[10] The word bat'leth itself means "sword of honor".[1] Bat'leths are made of a reinforced metal called baakonite[11][12] and are normally 116 centimeters (3.81 ft) long and weigh 5.3 kilograms (12 lb).[13]

    Yes, longer than an arm's reach, geanted, but significantly shorter than a adult person 😅
