Title: Your medieval weapon of choice?
Post by: on June 08, 2004, 03:54:48 PM: If you were in a battle in the 1200s or whatever, what CLOSE combat weapon would you most like to use to batter your opponents?

I'd pick a sword in each hand :lol:

Post by: KennyR on June 08, 2004, 04:07:51 PM: Depends how much armour the enemy is expected to wear, and how skilled you would be in using it. A sword is great for skilled fighters but not much good against armour. Axe is the same but better against chain mail. Some blunt force object like a mace or warhammer doesn't need a lot of skill and best against men in heavy armour.

Jonopike trying to kill some viking in heavy chain mail with two little swords (because big ones are two heavy for one hand) - that would be funny. :)

If you can define your genitals as a blunt force object, I'm very jealous. If you define them as sharp, see a doctor.

Maybe he rather wanted to say that if it's hard to extinguish them, you also can breed them out.
