Conquest Medieval Broadsword - Part 3

Never turn your back or spin when fighting

[crimsonnoble29]

the knights who wielded these swords trained with them every day from about the age of 8 until about 15 when they went into battle the first time so they were used to the weight of both armor and sword and could fight without tiring that quickly

I'm pretty sure that's tournament armor, rather than battle armor. You really wouldn't want to go into battle with plate that heavy.

Also, those guys did way too many wide slashes with those swords.

Have they done a Conquest episode with Poleaxes? Or pole weapons?

Thanks ahead of time

@CrazyCanuck129 Check out Weird Weapons Of the Middle Ages by marcelo5252! It has polearms and much more. I think that's what you're looking for.

@godzilla51196 Thank you sir!

[pzshi]

wearing all that armor does a slash really matter when it probably has no way of actually damaging it?

[ScandinaviansAreCool]

@pzshi Lol, so true.

[realfelixneko7]

I'm looking at those guys out there in that armor and padding in the sun and I'm thinking they must have downed several gallons of water just to survive.
