Heavy weapons vs lighter weapons

[Piet]

Heavier weapons should deal chip damage through lighter weapons parry. It's silly a dagger or spear can stop a maul dead in its tracks. Not a ton but enough to at least get some damage in And varying depending on weight comparison of the weapons. This may help make it so heavy weapons have a chance vs lighter weapons 1v1.

I like the idea, but would rather something else (that has been suggested a few times by a few people).

BLUNT damage should chip through parry. Hammers would do small chip damage, axes would do tiny chip damage, most swords would do no chip damage, daggers and spears would do none.

This would mean some numbers balancing of course, and the formula for chip damage would need to be done at a low and appropriate scale based on blunt damage amount.

Perhaps a combination of the two, factoring in the weight different between defending weapon (or shield) and the attacking weapon.
