STOP DOING THIS
Putting swords on backs?
Having ornamental Pommels?
Having small hilts?
STOP DOING WHAT user?
Putting swords on backs
I FUCKING TOLD YOU TO STOP DOING IT
I FUCKING DID
THIS STOPS NOW
If it's a short sword, you can put it on your back easily. Realism TWMA fags are the absolute worst.
I can't wait for the witcher series and spergs to freak out because of his two long swords on his back.
> implying you know more about swords than rest of us
Why not put sword on backs?
carrying a sword on your back was done, for transporting the sword.
if you were fighting. you had it on your waist or left the sheath with your squire well before the battle.
>LARPing: The man
Just fuck off
>Some of you frogs are alright. Don't go to France today...
ah, a webm of some slut spinning a sword disproves OP's point
really pickles my rickle
if it's too long it's impossible to hide it.
IIRC characters carrying swords on their back is mentioned several times on the Iliad.
Reminder that Lindybeige claims the following:
>no one used swords, axes
>no one used horses
>no one used throwing knives
>no one used double strap arm shields
>no one used scythes
>no one used mail coifs
>no one used torches
>Pikemen didn't fight each other
>no one spoke French during the French revolution
>no one spoke Latin during the Roman Republic
>battle of Zama didn't happen
>Romans carried one pilum
>Vikings weren't real
>berserkers weren't real
>climate change isn't real
>stagnant social mobility isn't real
>castles were defended by three soldiers
>butted mail is better than riveted mail
For transport it's alright i guess, but you can't properly draw it from the back or put it back into the sheath.
i used to like him until he became a know-it-all
>BECAME a know-it-all
Oh user, how naive of you.
>no one used swords
Swords are a modern invention, the concept of a sword wasn't around before Tolkien.
Hello Lloyd.
kys sstupid troll
giv sword gf
It's not just about practicality. It looks fucking STUPID.
I was just trying to make a funny. Sorry.
He is right you know? Swords are for fencing. If you actually want to kill someone there's a myriad of more efficient tools.
Did someone in the props department just put a fucking bike pedal on the end?
Don't forget he thinks tripods increase machine gun effectiveness for some reason
What's the deal with his shirts anyway?
My grandad is actually the guy who came up with swords
wow she can spin a stick just like in medieval times!
wait my grandad said he was the one who came up with swords??? did he lie to me :(
Me personally, I'd use the double-bladed battleaxe. Its a badass weapon.
you can't dramatically pull a sword from a scabbard on your back due to physics but you can certainly carry one around with you that way - they did that all the fucking time.
Nothing stops him from removing the scabbard from his back in one easy motion and pulling the sword out.
is he autistic?
He wants to look like the slightly unkempt professor chicks cream themselves over
I wasn't convinced, but that video proves it.
> implying you can beat her in a sword fight.
Nah, just an expert bullshitter. He's excellent at presenting himself like he knows what he's talking about, making it easy for naive idiots to flock to him
yes
yes
Fencing is the act of defense whether it's a sword, axe and shield, or polearm. Fencing applies to all melee weapons, not just swords.
>1942
>using the inferior spandau
I thought fencing was the act of putting up a structure to prevent your animals from escaping your backyard.
Niggers too not just animals
I wouldn't have to, she'd fatally injure herself
I thought fencing was the act of selling stolen goods.
the thing is only some Japanese fags actually drew their swords just when engaging their opponents.
Niggers too not just stolen goods
>Ohh noes i dropped my pike, let's fumble around with the sword behind my back while a guy is trying to kill me.
by sheer strength by broadsword would snap her sword in two
what would happen if you would tied him up to a chair and put Gladiator on a large TV?
>not having a mixed formation
Is there any film or tv showwhere someone carries a sword on their back and it's not their primary weapon?
I know about this, which is why I'm asking.
his shirts are trying to get the fuck away from him
this is peak autism
is he implying that all roman/ancient roads were properly fenced?
Lindybeige is an autist tard who lacks self awareness
He missed the fact that Romans were white ;^)
Top bit looks like the grip for a keyblade.
>pull hilt
>sash rotates around chest so that the sheath hangs on your shoulder
>sword is pulled out with no problem
There's literally nothing wrong with it
is that a bike pedal in your pic? that doesn't look anything like a bike pedal
pic related, it's a bike pedal
it's an spd style clipless pedal commonly used on road or mountain bikes
wow i bet those movements would be really powerful in a real battle, totally safe and she would survive against a man
Why are women so fucking stupid?
and which one of our pics looks more like the pommel? that's right, mine. so why didn't you post a picture of a more generic looking bike pedal like i did?
youtube.com
I like what this guy does.
lol'd
I larp
and let me tell you than putting swords on bacs is a thing
a real true historical thing
learn history pleb
at least play the witcher3
>I larp
Reminds me of this discussion i had a few months back.
>>no one used throwing knives
too much anime user.
I think he went pretty well in depth with his reasoning on why throwing knives are a stupid fucking idea.
Same for scythes..
Actually, Plato mentions warrior (a martial artist) who used a scythe.
>artist
doesn't really help your point
are you brandedstruggler in this convo?
that was me
He mentions him going actually to battle (and making a fool of himself with it) if I recall correctly.
The point is that the idea isn't from anime and video games. The grim reaper also has been depicted carrying one for a very long time.
>are you brandedstruggler in this convo?
If i were i wouldve probably spotted my name while hiding the names.
>The point is that the idea isn't from anime and video games.
Main source of the idea of scythes being used in battles comes from peasant militia fighting in various uprisings in partitioned Poland.
>climate change isn't real
He's right about that though.
Is that a shop? I thought Poland only had propeller planes
where is the upvote button on this site?

Nice!
Hey I'm not the one who started throwing 9gag/funnyjunk quips for no reason.

The autist schtick is getting old. Come up with new shitposting ideas, you dull fuck.
Nothing she is doing helps in a real battle.
Wow glorified baton twirling.
This is only true for long swords. Kys.
She is staying fit.
No, its true for all swords. It's extremely finnicky even drawing a short sword from your back, and dumb. Your hip is right there.
It's easy to draw a one handed sword from your back, manlet.
She's not in a real battle though you absolute fucking cretins and there's zero chance she ever will be, what there is a chance of though is a production company needing a skinny girl that can spin a fucking prop around for the camera and having identified this need she has filled it.
I think you should be complaining about people having quivers on their back
This is what's more likely to happen.
huh she's using ciris sword
No it's not, you cant pull a sword out of a sheath at an angle you have to hold it straight. So you can unsheath the sword halfway and then you'll have to twist and yank to get it out.
But they do though you retard, they make it more stable and widen the area they can be fired at, why the fuck else would anyone ever bother making heavy, cumbersome tripods? For a laugh?
I sometimes fantasize about having a conversation with Lloyd, but I know that irl he'd look down on me
billhooks are kinda scythe-like
english peasants would farm with them in the same way as they would use scythes and they used them in battle too
billhooks are actually pretty good at getting through armour
