Why do people argue and complain about which weapons are better. None of you have any use for them. None of you will ever use them for violence. If someone has a gun are you going to pull out a katana and run at him yelling "KAAA MEE HAA MEE HAAA".

Weapons are romantic, and even though they're violent and disgusting in use, they're beautiful and chivalrous in principle.

I view weapons as a power source, for skillful and powerful people to focus their abilities into something that looks artful and sometimes violent, but I view swordfights mostly as a power struggle

If you didn't get a chance to post your favorite before, do so now. If you did before, say again what your favorite is, and why!

I really do love weapons!

Wow, before zhagnal/fighting pick had only two votes (icluding mine) and now, only a bit afer I posted this, it has doubled! I wonder what people like about those? :P Anyone wanna say?
Cutlass are nice. I don't find them very appealing, though. Just seems kind of bland to me!

I think the Halberds (pikes were good). It's such a simple weapon yet so effective against all sorts of calvary. Just stick your weapon out and your good to go

I also like longbows

Awesome thread! =D

Well I own two blowguns and afew knifes, and those are a lot of fun. I have used throwing knifes and throwing axes before, and those are fun but hard to be accurate with.
The blowgun would be my favorite [b]OLD[b] weapon, even though its not up there... it is very accurate and stealty.


But I would much rather pilot a bomber then run into hostile teritory with a blowgun...
