Hi everyone For the reason that I'm bored, I like historicaly accurate combat I decide to put a poll about : What weapon do you want the next Mc to use. Let's say that this novel is heavy on martial art and the weapon changes everything drastically. I
halberd is the best weapon, its both a spear and an axe wih the option of a mace or hammer in the other side, what more could you want
objectively speaking a big ass shield would be the best weapon provided your strong enough to use it as a blunt force weapon and the shield having a sharp-ish edge at the bottom desu
Dual-Wield Read that masters of Swords are Feared but true Masters of Dual-wield Top all other masters.
I want 'the Brick' as the main weapon, heck even dual wielding bricks would be fine. The simple reason being Epic Comedy. I have only ever seen MCs use a brick on rare occasions.
Stones would be the best weapon if you are and have really good throwing strength, almost undodgeable when thrown properly, range, available at almost all times, deals blunt damage + possibility of pierce and an almost guaranteed stance breaker while you have no decrease in mobility
I don't really see that You smash the shield overhead? (that stupid) Or you slash/stab with the bottom? (why not use a big shield and Spear?)
I would like warhammer because when i read the poll list i sudennly remembered older brother from Eragon and i would love to see novel with someone like him.
I think so too, but since I was little I thought wielding two swords looked pretty cool But yeah, halbeard all the way. The only demerit is it's on the heavier side, but you can do so much with it, it's worth it. And iirc the protagonist of Road to Kingdom uses one (he also uses a sword some times.)
