The best thing to do with control freak GMs is to avoid them. Life is too short to play with people like that.


Except that if I'm not mistaken, you can attack with a Spiked Chain unhindered
in water.


That's not a Spiked Chain problem, that's an underwater combat rules
problem.


then house rule that out.

Create a House Rule for a single, silly weapon that has no relation to actual weapons?


No, it should apply to all flail-like weapons, including whips and
bolos.

Other chain weapons are Bludgeoning. So the underwater use issue is nonexistent. Again, it is the Spiked Chain that is the flaw...



Wouldn't be easier to just take my route and ban the Spiked Chain?


No.

Yes.
