I mean, its funny to see how some guys walk around with 1handers blocking all these big axes and outspaming guys...
Not that hard with real one, if your not stupid enough to block like you do it in Warband.
And especially if you remember that axe are blade on a WOOD staff.
How the fuck sickle could block Long great axe?
Sickle is a really nasty weapon, the day you could use it in warband like in reality, you will cry about it.
And because I'm nice, I give you a free video that will show you (a little) how nasty is a sickle.
