UPDATE: THIS MOD WILL PROBABLY NO LONGER BE UPDATED.
It is now part of Hothtrooper44 and Ironman5000's Immersive Weapons mod which integrates the staves into the leveled lists along with many more weapons.
Go here to download it!

==========
Version: 2.0
==========
Adds craftable and upgradeable quarterstaves to Skyrim.

I know there are other mods out there that add quarterstaves, but I wasn't satisfied with
them since they were either not lore-friendly or I thought they were the wrong speed or length
when compared to real quarterstaves.

The staves are about the same speed as War Axes, but they have a reach much
longer than any vanilla weapon. It counts as a warhammer and benefits from Skullcrusher.

To craft the weapons, go to the forge; the first staff will be available under the "wood" category. The rest will be unlocked with their respective smithing perks.

=============
Installation:
=============
Extract the files into your Skyrim/Data folder then, enable it.

NOTE: If you are updating from Version 1.0, delete the following from your Skyrim/Data folder:
meshes/weapons/quarterstaff/1stpersonquarterstaff.nif
meshes/weapons/quarterstaff/quarterstaff.nif

===============
Uninstallation:
===============
Disable the mod and delete the following files:

Quarterstaff.esp
Quarterstaff.bsa

==============
Compatibility:
==============
I know PrivateEye's Heavy Armory mod had quarterstaves of various types as well. They might
conflict with mine since some share the same name as mine but I'm not sure (I haven't tested this).

If you're using Version 1.0, then it might conflict with anything that modifies the two-handed perks.

=====
Bugs:
=====
Version 1.1 and above should more or less be bug-free now. If anyone discovers anything, let me know.

==========
Changelog:

for the wooden one to fit in with vanilla Skyrim's weapons.
