The mace is a melee weapon that does a moderate amount of blunt damage, and has a moderate cooldown. As a blunt weapon, mace attacks don't cause bleeding (unless a body part gets destroyed), and generally fares better against armor when compared to sharp weapons.
Acquisition
Maces can be crafted at the fueled smithy or electric smithy once the Smithing research has been completed; with 50 Stuff (Metallic/Woody, 500 for SMVs) and 6,000 ticks (1.67 mins) of work.
Maces can also be purchased from outlander and orbital combat suppliers, or from outlander and pirate raiders drops.
Analysis
Maces cost half as much as a longsword. While the longsword is stronger, the mace does blunt damage instead of sharp; armor pieces like flak vests and marine armor reduce the longsword to the point of being worse than the macee. A plasteel longsword will beat out a uranium mace against armor on the level of flak jackets and flak pants, as well as unarmored pawns. Steel longswords can beat steel maces at roughly the same breakpoints.
Compared to its neolithic 'ancestor', the club, the mace is 10 units more expensive, has the same damage, but with a slightly shorter cooldown period. The mace is best when made with uranium, due to the metal's blunt damage multiplier.
