This article is about the Claidheamh Mòr itself. For other uses of the name, see Claymore (disambiguation).
Right about now you must be wondering how in God's name you're supposed to pronounce Claidheamohmor. The answer: you don't! If you're remotely near one you'll be dead long before you're done injuring your vocal chords anyway!
Fancy vs. Nasty Update description

The Claidheamh Mòr is a melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a Template:W augmented with a crossguard with side rings and a red/blue and green Template:W wrapped around the grip. The blade is splattered with blood.

Similar to the Eyelander, this weapon has a large melee range and cannot roll for random Critical hits. However, the Claidheamh Mòr only imposes a -15 max health on its wielder. It also will not collect heads from decapitated victims, and as such, killing enemies with the Claidheamh Mòr will not increase health or speed. When equipped with the Chargin' Targe, the sword will allow the Demoman to charge for an additional 0.5 seconds, allowing the Demoman to charge further.

The weapon was originally created for the Fancy vs. Nasty Update as a replacement for the Eyelander and has since been officially added to the game.

Update history

December 21, 2010 Patch

  • Changed the name from Claidheamohmor to the proper Gaelic spelling Claidheamh Mòr "to the joy of our Celtic players".
  • The item was added to the Mann Co. Store, made craftable, and included in random drops.

January 7, 2011 Patch

  • This weapon was given a unique kill icon.

Trivia

  • Claidheamh mòr is the Template:W form of Template:W (literally "sword big"). It is pronounced "clai" (as in the name "Claire") - "v" (or "ph") - "more".
  • Although it is named after the Scottish Template:W, it appears to be more closely modeled after a Swiss or German Template:W with parrierhaken guards above the Template:W.
