I get the impression from the secret page in the Saxton hale comic that the Soldier will be getting a Pickaxe... and the Demoman a Claymore, though could be typical valve misdirection.

Really?  A claymore is far cooler than an effing pickaxe, unless there's some seriously awesome thing associated with it, like digging tunnels!

It would make sense anyway... there is a Picaxe and a HUGE SWORD on the commerative plates.  Claymore would make sense.

Also a Bugle plate... which i guess could be a new taunt for one of the solider weapons... or the 4th weapon is REALLY lame.

Also a picture of a new Rocket Launcher in there... with a scope.

Oh I though a Claymore as in the tripwire mine, which would be AWESOME.

<3 valve so much now

Lol, the demoman shield stuff makes it sound like a beat-em-up game.

"Alt-firing will hurtle you toward an enemy at a punishingly damaging high speed (far faster than a Scout can manage)."

It will probably be quite a lot of fun.

haha that's amazing.

the comics are great too:

the words above were backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

Sweet update and I really like the idea of voting by death counts.
Really gets the community involved.
Also like the idea of crafting new weapons.
Hopefully they will start releasing the new weapons thru the crafting system.
I'll take a blueprint for a new weapon :)

The shield thing would be ridiculously fun. Wonder what soldiers get.
