Was wondering: I assume that the custom weapons that are available (Falchion, katana and so on) are modelled on standard weapons. At least, thats what someone said, I think. Wouldn't this simply mean that if you know the base weapon you could take, for example, weapon specialization in that weapon instead and thereby be specialized in a custom weapon?
And if so, how would one go about figuring out the base weapons?

If a weapon is based on a different base weapon, it will say in the item description. If the weapon is a custom CEP weapon it will have an asterisk(*) beside the base item name. If it has an asterisk beside the base item name, there are not feats associated with it because it is not based on a standard NWN weapon but is a new item entirely.
For instance, tanto is a small blade sold in the module. When you examine it, it says its base weapon is a dagger. Thus, dagger feats work with it. Same goes for foil. It says its base weapon is a rapier so you use rapier feats.
However, the trident says its base weapon is trident*. That means it is new content, and there are no feats associated with it. The same goes for falchion, whose base weapon is falchion*. There are no feats associated with it either.
Oh, and katana is a standard NWN weapon. Its base item is katana and works with katana feats.

Right. My mistake about the katana Thanks for the info. So, is it possible to get a listing of the customized weapons that you can use feats with here on the forums or do we have to find out the hard way?

You'll have to find out the hard way, I believe. Not aware of any lists of such items.

Are there any custom weapons that are based on the greatsword catagory?
