While not as powerful as a [[two-handed sword]], it has the potential to be used in one hand, making it a better defensive option, as the other hand retains the ability to use a [[shield]]. Long swords have the same basic attacks as other swords, but benefit from increased damage potential over short swords. |

Long swords use and train the [[swordsdwarf]] skill. As foreign weapons, dwarves cannot [[forge]] long swords, limiting supply to whatever low-[[quality]] specimens can be traded from human [[caravan]]s or scavenged from invaders. | Long swords use and train the [[swordsdwarf]] skill.
