Are you suggesting that if a 17 or 18 is rolled during combat,
that you roll against a table to determine what happened to
your weapon?  A combat roll of 17 might cause a roll against
the table, a combat roll of 18 might force you to add 3 to
your roll in the table. 

Possible results could stem from adding a DX adjustment to your
next attack ( weak grasp! ) to dropping your weapon to having
it break.  Magical or fine weapons might get a subtraction to
the roll in this table, etc ...
