What Weapon is Best?

[BrightStar]

Twin Daggers
Sword
Axe
Rabbit
A Two Handed Sword
A Two Handed type Axe
Hammer
Cat
Spear
A Shirt
Staff
Glaive
Cow
Flail
Bow
Punching Boots and Gloves (I.E. Brass Knuckles)

Or some other type of Medival Weapon.

Which do you like most, and why?

[koolagh]

Absolutely love my custom made katars (12 in long 2 in wide blades mounted on leather wrist bracers) dont have to worry about being disarmed (unless you get your arm lopped off at the elbow) and greatly accentuates natural hand-to-hand fighting ability.

[BrightStar]

Im still not sure what my favorite weapon type would be

[Tequila Zaire]

It's all about Black Biology...who needs a weapon when you can wipe out a city with a virus?

[BrightStar]

Do you Worship Nurgle, by any chance?

[Tequila Zaire]

Do you Worship Nurgle, by any chance?

Not really no. By 40K terms...I'd be one of those Demon Hunters or Inquisitors.

[BrightStar]

I would still agree with you there, although I wasnt really talking about toxin, other poisons and viruses and such.

Still though, they are creepy ,effective and scary

[Amelia G]

gun?

[gonesavage]

Cow? Rabbit?

Cat I understand. Throw a cat at someone and they'll definitely get distracted, if not scratches on their face, if the cat isn't declawed. But you only get one chance... unless you have a bag of cats... but that gets heavy... hmm...

I dunno if I'd want to mess witha person who walked around with a bag of cats...

Guns were pretty devastating back then, but were EXTREMELY unstable.

In general, I am not a fan of most guns, although there are exceptions.

Sonic Blasters & Blast Masters( Those are real, for those of you who play 40K, as are Plasma Guns and Cannons)

You should witness the destructive power of those weapons

It is quite awesome to watch a bunch of brick, concrete, and other materials,type walls being blown up with pure sound waves!

As for the Plasma Cannons and Guns...They did the exact same, except instead of blowing up the walls, they melted through them and/or set the walls on fire

[vixta]

If you don't believe in the destructive power of rabbits then i suggest you watch monty python and the holy grail.

my personal favourite weapon combination is a dagger in the left hand and a sword in the other - i have a lovely one with a curved blade and an ornate hand guard around the pommel. hmmm.

[BrightStar]

Sounds like the Weapons Of Choice Preferred by Assassin: Artemis Enteri

[BrightStar]

Even though the Animals listed were kind of meant to be Jokes, they actually are/were real weapons.

In the Middle Ages, The people would actually launch LIVE COWS with a catapult, and hurl them over the enemies walls. They pretty much hurled anything with catapults in those days...

[BrightStar]

Not sure why, but My weapon Preferences almost always have to be Two Handed Weapons, or the type of Combo with Two of the same weapons.

That, and Martial Arts stuff like Katars, Punching Gloves, etc.

I love Hammers for some reason, but Im still not exactly sure on my weapons preference

[koolagh]

Ok, are we talking actual weapons or some sick rpg crap? I actually own the weapons i described and can give you photos of me wearing and wielding them.

A little of each I think, depending on the poster.

I'm totally going to start a pix with weapons thread and you are over 25 posts now, so you have no excuse not to post in it

[CeruleanFire]

I think the brain is the most dangerous weapon of all, if used correctly :P

[vixta]

'lo

the use of livestock was a psychological weapon used by a countess in medevial times - her castle was under seige and she had hardly any food so she threw most of it over the battlements to suggest she actually had loads. it worked as well - sorry i watch far too many dvd special features.

and yeah, i actually possess the weapons i talked about - i aint gonna bore you with an inventory of my runescape account. i used to do a lot of viking re-enactment, and am ok with blades up to broadswords and maces with up to a 1.5 metre chain

Sounds fun!

[Preach]

The best weapon is the most simple: your hands. There are so many things you can do with them. You can punch someone, stick your fingers in your opponents eyes, you can break his neck and of course you can strangle him (which by the way is the most passionate way of murder)

[gonesavage]

I think the best weapon to throw in a catapault would be gangs of ninjas. And what did a live cow do once it was thrown? I'd imagine the people would see what was coming and scatter, only to be splattered with cow bits once it landed... And what did they do with rabbits?

Better still...a gang of monkey ninjas.

[CeruleanFire]

all are good, but you still need the brain to make the others work. I love weaponry. the more the better.

Of all the weapons you described here, I now own at least one of each IRL, except for the animals.

[Will Judy]

Rapier wit.

[Amelia G]

Rapier wit.

And puns too apparently.

[EvilNun]

"A mind is a terrible thing to waste."

[BrightStar]

"A mind is a terrible thing to waste."

So is a Mime

[EvilNun]

I think the best weapon would be what ever gets the job done at that moment in time. Be it your hands, an axe, a gun, ice pick.....whatever tickles your pickle

[DescendingAngel]

I would say an axe. If I was angry enough to kill someone, I think the only joy I would get out of it is to watch their blood fly everywhere as I tear them limb from limb. >=o)

[suicide doll]

I would say an Axe..and be like Lizzie Borden who took an axe and gave her mother forty whacks. And when she saw what she had done, She gave her father forty-one.

[vixta]

yeah but if you use a mace with a 10 inch chain, then you get the same thud but it's easier to get the thing out or the next hit.

[EvilNun]

So is a Mime

A mime isnt a weapon. It's a distraction.

[CeruleanFire]

if the wit, or the brains dont work, bare hands is an excellent substitute

[CeruleanFire]

so you like that old saying too huh? ok, I will go with an axe, if my other choices arent available

[koolagh]

Yeah its kinda late, but i just found it.

[koolagh]

Hell I give up, I still cant figure out how to post pics.

[Amelia G]

Hell I give up, I still cant figure out how to post pics.

You did the code right, but the http: link thing needs to be to the actual picture, not just the page the pic is on i.e. generally something where the filename ends in jpg or gif and not htm or html or php.

[koolagh]

Guess that explains it, I only found the page it was on, so I guess I will post the link to that.
