Sword and Shields - Medieval Warfare

I'm going to assume no one has claimed Zharka yet.

Actually, no nation on the front page is listed as being in control of it.

Therefore, Zharka claimed for Hel'Jen's Dominion.

Why do you think he wears that mask and all that clothing in the first place. It's made to resist air friction. Though mach speeds only come in the form of .

Interesting.

Your character must have a profound mastery over his motions, and probably has the ability to manipulate his own momentum/ inertia at will.

Mach 3 speed.

Amazing how flesh and bone aren't flayed by the sheer force generated by the impacts of small particles in the air.

EDIT: Well, technically, a person might be able to survive that.

But boasting about your power and ridiculing your opponent in the middle of a fight is fun.

I mean, clearly all great warriors appreciate a little shit-talking, right?

Sword and Shields - Medieval Warfare

Yeah, an obsidian arrowhoead would cause nasty lacerations if it managed to hit unarmored flesh; if it pierced far enough, it might even strike a bone and shatter. Obsidian weapons, by their very nature, will absolutely mangle skin and muscle with disturbing ease--even more so than the finest steel swords---, but as was said earlier, they're rather brittle and incredibly ineffective against armor.

A macuahuitl will cleave through the neck of a horse. Confirmed on a documentary showcasing the weapon's power, though the wielder was not the largest man in the world and he was attacking what appeared to be a slab of raw (if not spoiled) slab of beef. He did manage to cut about 6-8 inches into the meat (using a side-ways swing), however.

One wonders what would happen if a stronger and trained warrior with sufficient downward swing would do to an unarmored person, and what would happen if the weapon was augmented by applying more weight to it (perhaps applying stones tied along the length of the 'bat').

I think two-handed versions of the macuahuitl existed as well.

^ fix'dAh. Fair enough.

What does the suit do?

Or is this something I can find out by reading a specific character sheet or by looking over your most-recent IC post?

P-p-p-p-posted! Just so everyone knows, the spell being cast is of the "Celestial" Circle of sorcery, thus taking a minimum of two posts to complete properly. The "God-Forged Champion of War" is essentially a way for the caster to encase themselves inside a huge mech-suit created purely out of their essence/energy. Normally it costs only 20 'motes', but that gives no weaponry. So for the extra ten, I was able to give it a potent laser-ish cannon and a large axe for killin'.I know I may have made it seem like the spell was complete or near-complete in a single post, but I wanted to paint a vivid image for anyone and everyone that was following the Necropoli situation.

So, basically a spell that calls into existence fantasy power armor for the user.

Interesting.

♘Evolution vs. Creationism☼

...It seems like these threads only ever attract those that accept evolution as fact, in which the same infallible proof, facts and concepts are thrown about as suitable counters to the inherently flawed beliefs produced by creationists and devote theists. Sometimes, they turn into insufferable circle-jerks.

It's kind of hilarious, actually.

I can list a sum total of One fate worse than death.But that's not something you bring up in polite conversation, so let's not push the subject.

Now I'm intrigued.

What is it?
