Aye, it gives no bonus after 12 and -- with some mobs -- doesn't really
add on to dam before 12 either, as they'll still hit for 13, 14 points of
dam. However, this depends on the creature's AC so giving your skelly a
fast weapon is usually a good idea. :-)

What I've wondered, is... if you give your skelly armour does it show?
I know the shield shows up (and I'm wondering if the skelly will get an AC
bonus for it even after 12th level). I've always wanted to deck my skelly
out in full plate, and a two handed sword or a good spiffy looking weapon
and a large shield. 'Course, I'd have to do this at 50th level as money
probably wouldn't mean anything by then, but.. the thought just strikes me
as amusing. =)

Ah wells, enough rambling from me. Enjoy folks.
