Nice valid Argument. Just what I'd expect from a Knight nut hugger

This guy Gives a pretty interesting post.
Note this "You're addressing things that have been said 2 years ago. Recently (as in late 2009, 2010), none of what you're addressing has been said. Japanese spears were also of much better quality due to tang construction, rather than the socket construction of European spears. It takes a lot of work to free the blade of a yari. Add on that a sankaku yari was diamond or triangular in cross section, and it makes a very lethal weapon. There's more kinetic energy in a sankaku yari."
With this In mind I think a Yari should do more thrust damage than a war spear. But I think it should do less swing damage. Maybe something more along the lines of 23 swing damage

« on: March 19, 2011, 10:01:02 pm »some ppl need to pull there head from there ass.. more weapons is always better for the game. and the long halfted blade is crap.Totally agree. Naginata would be Brilliant but apparently 3 Japanese weapons is alot, especially next to the countless western weapons. 1 more would be overkill

Suggestions Corner / Re: Substitutes for the current strange armors : new textures. (UPDATED PICTURES!)

Why substitute? Just add them as separate weapons/armor. Why does it always have to be a compromise when non-Knight equipment is suggested. Their are many variations of plate armor. Dont see any compromise there

Totally agree, Its ridiculous that you arent able to stab with eastern weapons. and the one weapon you are able to has ridiculously low thrust damage. Only 2 more than a wooden sword
