The Freedom Staff is a promotional melee weapon for all classes, with the exception of the Engineer and Spy. It is an aquila with a splintered end. Topping the staff is a golden depiction of an eagle.

This item functions identically to the wielder's default melee weapon.

It was awarded in Genuine quality to players who purchased the Total War Master Collection. Owning all of the games in the collection also granted the Freedom Staff.

The Freedom Staff was later contributed to the Steam Workshop, at Valve's request.
