Previous Changes

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.

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.
