    The recruits have occasionally practiced throws with swords in full gear, which basically involves tackling your opponent and freedom of movement has never seemed to be an issue.

    Nice. Y’all have any brigandines?

    Just the other day someone tried to explain to me how crusaders started using maces because it took too long to draw their longswords and they’d get stabbed before that Incidentally the same person who told me they stopped wearing plate armor during the crusades because too many people died of heatstroke. And who said knights wore daggers in their boots and just stood on one leg to reach it.

    That’s hilarious. That ‘they stopped  wearing plate armor because of heatstroke’ part especially. Gold. xD

    Admittedly most of those friends are writers who are notorious for their somewhat violent and dark sense of humor so that plays a role

    I would never indulge in such humor.

    They just fled my brain leaving nothing except “Hit with sword”

    That would so be me.

    Oh I know you haven’t. You’re very chivalrous.

    Exactly. 😄

    Knew you’d enjoy my humiliation
