Just bought Donjon (nice game Clinton!) and I have a question: What's the rule of thumb for the worth of weapons/armor? (Or, did I just miss something when I read the text?)

Weapons have a worth equal to their damage rating, plus any magical bonuses. I don't know the page number but I think its Table 3-2.

So a mace, with a damage rating of 1, also has a worth of 1.
A shortsword is worth 2 though, because its sharp.

There's a nice screen for it on the anvilwerks site, http://www.anvilwerks.com/rpg/donjon_master_screen.pdf

Thanks. I thought I read that somewhere, but when I went back to double check I couldn't find it in the text (actually, I still can't find it...hmm).

Ha! I found it not in the text, but in table 3-1: Item and Service Worth (page 18 of the screen version). It says that the damage Rating = worth for armor and weapons. Its also mentions in the example text on page 19 with Fiera selling a worth 4 huge axe, and again on page 21 with her fire breath (where she buys worth 3 exotic goods to eat).

Once again, thanks Jason. I think I was trying too hard, and overlooked the obvious.
