Sniper rifles have that "they'll never know what hit him" quality. If you're skilled enough to jump off platforms and get a perfect headshot, it's meant for you.
Melee weapons are fun if you want to see someone piss themself before their head gets lopped off. |

Actually you know what owns polearms?
Axes own polearms. Also, guns. |

Originally posted by NSaintNickOriginally posted by Ghost of Christmas Past Ha, that was great. I heard that originally it was supposed to be a swordfight, but it took so many takes that Ford got frustrated and pulled out his gun and pretended to shoot the guy, and they decided they liked that better and wrote it in. I'm not sure if that's true, though. |

Fachions FTW. I just love those things; they look so cool! If only I had an elemental gem or something to infuse with it... | |||

Originally posted by JagoriClose... It was originally going to be a complicated sword on whip fight, but Ford had gotten dysentary earlier and wasn't up to filming the fight scene, so it was suggested he just shoot the guy, so that's what happened.

Originally posted by Ghost of Christmas Past On an actual battlefeild, yes, axes are what you'd use against polearms. If you have fourty guys with polearms in a line, they form a pretty prickly mess. So you send in some guys with axes or maces*, who're probably going to die. But usually if they're in sufficient numbers, someone will get through. Once you get past the actual pointy parts of the spears, a spear line is incapable of hurting you, so you get to kill two or three people and let your army through. And then they get to surround the pikemen and whoever gets behind them kills them. One-to-one? Polearm wins. The effective range for using an axe is about a foot. The effective range for a polearm is about eight feet. Guess who gets to attack first? And yes. Guns. *Neither of these are the gigantic monstrocities you seen in popular culture. Good-sized axes and maces are both about a foot long, basically a stick with a lump of metal on the end. Axes have a pointier lump, maces have one that's equally effective from all angles. |

I was aware.
But I studied medieval battle tactics a bit and felt like going off on a rant. You know how it is. |

But missles are horridly unwieldly and a very silly weapon for a single person to use. | |||

Guns don't have blades**. A fish is not a sword. Fish aren't weapons***. A katana is a sword. It fits the entire definition, dagnabit! *Ask your friendly dictionary. **One of you will bring up a gunblade. I will kick you in the forhead. ***Unless it's a Pike Pike. In which case it's still not a sword. (edited by Squash Monster on 12-22-05 10:06 PM) |

That's... A very short sword. A lance would totally beat that |
