Hey newbie question.

Are you able to block an attack with a One-handed weapon or only Two-handed weapons?

Thanks
You are more than welcome to block an attack with a one handed weapon. The only exception being core-less weapons such as throwing daggers and stilettos as they are too flimsy.
However, if you are using a two-handed weapon you must have both hands on the weapon in order to block with it? You can not use a two-handed weapon with one hand defensively?
If you are quoting the Rulebook please officially "Quote" the Rulebook.

If the Rulebook states this, which it does, then it is true.

Core Rulebook Page 85 Wrote:Blocking with two-handed weapons.
A two-handed weapon may only be used to block if the weapon is held in both hands. If this constraint isn’t met,any attack that hits the weapon in question will be considered to have hit the wielder of it instead.
