====== Peo­ples of Sunesh ======

====== Con­flict ====== The Sunesh have con­stant­ly bat­tled tribes­men and small raids but nev­er re­al­ly suf­fered pro­tact­ed wars with oth­er na­tion­s. So, they lacked much of a mil­i­tary mind­set. When Pelosians came they were eas­i­ly con­quored.

==== Weapons ==== The Khopesh(treat as longsword) is the Sunesh weapon.

Not com­mon but al­so unique­ly Sunesh are light and heavy flails made from wood or bone edged with su­per sharp ob­sid­i­an, weight­ed on the end with a stone or met­al bal­l. They bash and slash op­po­nents very ef­fec­tiv­ly. (Sunesh flails do slash and blud­geon­ing dam­age have less hard­ness/hit­points than nor­mal)

Throw­ing ax­es, club­s, light maces, spears, javelin­s, slings and short bows, are all com­mon.

==== Ar­mor ==== Padded, Leather and Hide are the on­ly types com­mon be­fore becom­ming a sub­ject of Pe­los Em­pire and are still the most com­mon to­day. Many Pelosian ar­mors re­main in use, some are quite old. Al­though Sunesh lack the ma­te­ri­als and skills to pro­duce many copies. A few chain shirts are trad­ed for from Fist.

Oval leather faced wick­er shields equiv to light wood are com­mon.
