Melee weapons are superior at start, but no self respecting player thinks short-term. The latter is enforced by the convenience of one hander trait becoming quite useful and the bonus HtH Evade perk being a nice bonus. So now cant decide between super sledge or mega power fist styles. Although i know i will largely be annoyed by having to run towards the opponents who keep sliding gazilion hexes away after a blow, i suppose being a barbarian will have its merits in some way. ( i never played fot in anything else than CTB) But fallout 2 may prove a different matter. Naturally in FoT this idea cannot be employed for the sheer impossibility of actually beating a Behemoth silly with fists, as well as the super mutants with various burst weapons presenting a problem. Having played all fallouts so many times, i stopped trying to keep count, i realized that i should play a melee goon for the heck of it.
