Actually, the Battle Axe is well suited to the TP style.  Engwar has
been using one (or was using one) since AD started, and I've tried it
with a few TPS, and fought some TPs who used it.  Unless things have
changed drastically, it's well-suited.

As far as I know, RSI doesn't allow marginal or unorthodox weapons to
be a character's favorites.  About a year ago, maybe a year and a
half, the tourney prize was determining a warrior's favorite fighting
rhythm and weapon.  RSI's only restriction was that the weapon be
well-suited to the fighter's style.
