      @@reposter6434 The knights didn’t compose the entire armies and the knights themselves weren’t killed en masse. It’s also not like the knights weren’t taken hostage during battle. You seem to be ignorant of these facts. Tell me, what reliable sources inform you that dents in armor significantly reduce the armor’s capability? Also, knights were godlike on the battlefield due to their unparalleled protection and training. Knights were really “that well protected.” Knights didn’t die left and right on the battlefield until the discovery of useful ways to employ gunpowder on the battlefield. Sure, armor was tailor-made for the individual, but that doesn’t mean that the smallest dent to it would damage its ability to perform heinously, or even that a sizeable dent would. Also, they didn’t “come up” with warhammers. Just like sharper weapons, warhammers have been a staple of combat ever since hammers have been a thing. Every tool has been made a weapon by humans naturally. Also, warhammers weren’t strictly blunt; some had a point with which to focus energy and penetrate plate armor by focusing force into a small point. Tell me, where in God’s name did you get your information?

      Yeah the heavy armor myth is very popular unfortunately. Also the myth that European swords are less sharp and heavier is such nonsense. The katana is not even a nimble sword. The point of balance is usually high up the blade which makes it quite clumsy (it’s great sword for cutting). A longsword is usually more nimble (thinner blade, point of balance is closer to the hands) and quicker to redirect.

    There is nothing more satisfying than watching people argue about European and Japanese weapons and armors being better than the other. But, I will point out that the tachi (not a katana due to it's length) would probably break or chip on impact with the Warren's avantail, mostly due to the construction of the mail he is wearing which at the time was riveted mail, otherwise known as the strongest type of mail there is. The damage that the orichi will do at best is probably break the Warden's neck. But it will not cut through, it could bend the riveted rings tho. But it will never cut through.

(Idk how i can real explain this really well in englisch cause im from germany but skallgrim made a Video about this topic) the second way is something you saw very often.

      Maces weren't the end all be all, if they were you wouldnt see a knight or a soldier who could be expected to face one without one. Maces are good weapons but plate armor is designed not only to take blows but to deflect them. Plus, plate is rigid, which means its not gonna all transfer to the wearer even if its a perfect hit. A greatsword would probably be better than a mace as a bludgeon against a knight considering it's weight

      To be fair, the quality of European steel and Japanese steel of the medieval period were quite similar. One can have less slag inclusions than the other, and vice versa.
      Plus there wasn't any drastic difference in terms of how they smelted and forged metal, since they both contain common principles such as folding.

    Lawbringer would be such an overwhelming force to the enemy because of his heavy plating he'd basically be a moving tank very slow but very powerful and the way he changes his poleaxes stance when he's guarding upwards and strikes down with the back side of his weapon is very interesting

    For those of you who don't know, medieval plate armor was invulnerable to nearly all of the enemy's attacks. Arrows, crossbow bolts, swords, axes, spears and so on. That's exactly why warhammers and maces were introduced in the first place, to fight heavily armored opponents.

      @Aegis--- 3 роки тому +7

      Not crossbow bolts, that's part of the reason why crossbows were so well spread, considering it was the only ranged weapon (outside of welsh/English longbows) that could pierce armor
