Also shouldnt it be spelled "war hammer"?
I discovered that there's already a tag war_hammer for a specific magic weapon found in Nanoha. It has only 5 posts. Maybe it could be renamed to war_hammer_(nanoha). Then our current warhammer could be moved to war_hammer.
Oddly enough, the Nanoha thing is a character tag. I suppose it should be a general tag, shouldn't it?
Disclaimer: I don't watch Nanoha, I'm not familiar with this anime.

Sure. In descending order of warhammernes: post #1475793 post #848649 post #1338239 post #120065 and post #2836979.
OK, that's tough. Maybe in fact the same object can be a war hammer and a mallet.
Feel free to correct me or disagree, but in my mind the word "mallet" is more about the shape of the object, and the word "war hammer" is more about the object as a realistic deadly weapon.
warhammer even implies weapon, which sounds good to me.
So I would say that King DeDeDe, Amy (Sonic) and Ramona Flowers really use "mallets" because of the objects' shape, but not "warhammers" because they look like silly colorful oversized toys rather than actual weapons. Just my two cents.
