In SLASH'EM and its ancestor variants, the heavy hammer is a one-handed weapon that deals 1d6 damage to small and large monsters. It is the base item for the artifact weapon Mjollnir.
Generation
Heavy hammers are not randomly generated, though they can be created by upgrading a war hammer.
A bones level containing Mjollnir that is found in a game where the artifact is already generated will instead have a normal heavy hammer.
Strategy
As a base item, the heavy hammer is only slightly stronger than a war hammer and provides relatively little advantage to Mjollnir compared to vanilla NetHack - most of Mjollnir's utility comes from its massive damage bonus against monsters without shock resistance.

In SlashTHEM, the heavy hammer is a two-handed weapon that deals 2d8 damage to small monsters and 2d10 to large monsters. It is the base item for the artifact weapons Mjollnir and Warforger.
Generation
Heavy hammers are now randomly generated, and can be created by upgrading a war hammer as in SLASH'EM.
Strategy
Compared to SLASH'EM, heavy hammers in SlashTHEM are much more powerful, giving artifact heavy hammers better damage against resistant monsters, but they cannot be used with shields or in twoweaponing.
