The Broken Table Leg with Nails is a broken table leg studded with nails. It is an improvised one-handed club that trains the Short Blunt skill. The nails add damage and a much stronger crit. It stays a short, light weapon for close fights.
It is made from a Broken Table Leg, three Nails and a hammer with Carpentry 1. It also appears when an Antique Table Leg with Nails breaks. A few mid game survivor safehouses hold one.
Combat
The Broken Table Leg with Nails swings a little faster than most weapons. Its reach is short, so it suits a zombie that is already close. Each hit deals modest damage, and an ordinary zombie takes several swings. The critical chance is only 5 percent. A crit multiplies the damage five times, which can drop a zombie at once.
It hits about half again as hard as the plain Broken Table Leg. It also hits harder than the Broken Stick with Nails, at the cost of a little more weight. Higher Short Blunt skill raises speed, damage and critical chance. It suits an early weapon for single zombies and for finishing zombies on the ground.

Repair
The Broken Table Leg with Nails has 10 condition and loses a point on roughly 1 hit in 3. The Short Blunt skill and the Maintenance skill both lower that chance. Duct tape, adhesive tape and glue repair it with no skill needed. Zip ties need Maintenance 1, wood glue needs Carpentry 2, and epoxy needs Maintenance 3. Epoxy with rags needs Maintenance 4. Each repair restores less condition than the one before. Fighting with it gives no Maintenance experience.
Locations
The Broken Table Leg with Nails is a very rare find. It turns up only in mid game survivor safehouses. There it can sit in a cardboard box, a crate, a small box, a counter, a metal shelf or a wardrobe. Making one is far easier than finding one.
