- The wars I fight in allow shields and melee so I thought I would make some. Here are how they turned out.

and if he's outnumbered, battling on a snowy hill, he can ride it to escape!
Oh great, he's got a shield now.
And yet...I suspect I will get shot in the back repeatedly by your and your bloody sledgefire anyway...
Captain Xavier Or my drones.
@@CaptainXavier Or my beloved Savage Spin
When i first saw this, i was like “yep, we all gonna die”
Captain Xavier
th-cam.com/video/ttJ8LdOQdSc/w-d-xo.html
I’m probably gonna do something like this
Wow. Roman, Zulu, AND German style battle gear? You, my friend, are not only well prepared but also well educated in historical combat. Mad respect.
Don't forget French and Italian as well (the fencing styles I study). And some Viking (round shield training). And English if you count Longbow shooting...
Captain Xavier is any of that self taught
Love the fact that you put a lightsaber in ur loadout
:D
In a galaxy far far way there was a captain Xavier, not saving the galaxy but fighting with foam
tell me more... e.e
Tell me more... e.e
FINALLY, SOMEBODY WHO GETS IT.
...gets what? What is it that I get?
Captain Xavier i I challenge you to a lightsaber duel
Captain Xavier He built that deployable riot shield
WalcomS7 YAAAAASSSSS
WalcomS7 , he is becoming a Gundam. He is realizing your dreams!
and you can still use it in a Winter Nerf war as a mode of transportation
Link would be proud.
I suspect the window would cause some nasty drag...but other than that, yeah, it would work great.
very good point
Captain Xavier maybe you can make an attachable plate to put over the cut out
Captain Xavier pffft... spray it with pam. send it
captain xavier agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
he built shield
Now I see why the Hammershot is such a useful blaster! When you're using a shield in a Nerf battle, you need a blaster that can be operated singlehandedly, and the Hammershot is the only hammer-action blaster that's not too small, but not to large*...
*(The Doomlands' Lawbringer is simply too bulky for this purpose...)
InventorZahran 327 not when minimized. ;)
I should've made this more clear, but I was specifically referring to blasters that have not yet been minimized. :)
I am also a huge nerd. Therefore, I will be making one of those lightsabers for myself. Thank you for all the crazy ideas and info on your channel.
Let me know how it works out!
Cool- I love these loadout videoos!
Put a flywheel weapon like a strife into a shield, that'll be op
Yesss, you do not know how long I've waiting for this
Don't worry, you have the high ground!
I have one of those lightsabers and I think it is so cool for all the reasons you said. it's awesome
welcome to the clan o' nerds
it is an honor
Hey Captain Xavier, you should join The Saber Legion. We use HEMA (sorry if misspelled) style fighting techniques in full contact dueling. This group is getting fairly large and it sounds like you's enjoy it
the experience beret has with this
I don't know why but the image of Captain Xavier in his full tack gear and just pulling the lightsaber at a war would just send shivers down my spine cause I know I'm about to get my butt kicked
I have been told is it quite intimidating until you get used to it
@@CaptainXavier it would remind me of deathstroke
LIGHTSABERS!!!!!!!!! And blasters oh yeah the shield
You make my Stryfe and Strongarm look like baby toys
NIIIIIICE GOOD JOB CAP
A huge nerd you are! And so am I. Anyway, such a cool shield and lightsabre they are. Now I'm interested to see the roman style combat in action...
You're the coolest huge nerd ever. That's for sure
Like the load out very cool
using a sled to make a shield is an awesome idea! ive been trying to figure out a good way to make one, i think ill be using this method!
Awesome, and you made a proper training sword there, I need to make some swords for the boys and I to use.
love it!
As a pool noodle doesn't have 'blade bite' like a light saber does a hand guard could be beneficial.
To make it not optically intrusive I suggest gluing a ring of (same color) larger diameter pool noodle to the base of the blade.
Man I bet that's gonna be fun. I miss being able to do stuff like this
i love your channel keep it up
liked what u did for the shield it's given be a new idea for tinkering
Go for it!
you sir, are a huge nerd. and that's exactly why you're so awesome
Captain Xavier you could makeshift a cap for the tip using a pvc cap and a thin sheet of plastic or cardboard to hold the noodles
Nice video
lightsaber boffer sword is an amazing idea. I'm upset that I didn't think of it
It is so very very simple...and super Nerdy
Lmao, As a fellow HEMA practitioner, I whole heartedly approve XD
awsome i love it. would love to see some footage of you going melee saber in a war lol
I hope to get lots of war footage this season...hopefully some of it will even be good. :P
I'm tickled to bits that you study Historical European Martial Arts. I'd actually watched this some time back, before I got into HEMA (Fiore, specifically, but that's aside the point), but I remembered just recently that you mentioned studying German longsword in a video. So I went hunting, and found this video again. Maybe this is a sign I should throw myself back into Nerf modding like I used to.
And yes, Liechtenauer would probably be dismayed at people using his system for foam sword combat. Then again, that's probably the only place outside of HEMA circles where it can really be applied XD
What about adding a female hook onto it so it can connect to your vest? It'd be menacing to throw it over your shoulder and have it on your back while you're running someone down.
Ha your a huge nerd and yet I'm jealous of that loadout. I have to go process this revelation.
:D
I really want a build video on that light saber. It looks great!
Sadly, I don't think I filmed any of it. There is not much to see. I dremeled out the inside to fit, drilled holes in the PVC and steel to line up wit the screw posts, and screwed it together.
If you had a war in winter you could use this to get away if there is a hill
no
tactical nerf sled
Sam Harmeyer but its tacticool
As a fellow nerd this is awesome
That's a nice sled you attached a handle to
2 handles actually. I also added a view port. :D
Captain Xavier if you're fighting someone during a snowstorm, you can hop on your shield and barrel down the hill towards them for a fear tactic
A lathed metal handle would be cool.
your lightsaber looks like a Duracell battery.
An orange lightsaber! They are real!
okay awesome video you have to reinforce those handles I would suggest a plastic sheet
Please demo this set, I want to see it in action. Especially the shield, you _say_ both holds work but that T alignment with the grips looks mighty tight in there, it'd be nice if you could demonstrate how you hold it comfortably. Aside from that, of course we need to see you nerd sabering the air and showing how well the shield covers you. Maybe show off the melee set with a ranged loadout?
Put it on your back, become tactical turtle
Congratulations on 24,666 subs
Maglite or 1 1/2" drain pipe clips would probably allow you to mount the sabre on the inside of this so that you could carry it onboard & only deploy when needed.
The saber is way too long to mount inside the shield. The Lightsaber bayonet on the other hand...
Now that sounds like a plan!
You are not a nerd! You are normal to those that share you passion and dream. Personally, why didn't you find a way to put the handle of your shield on a 90 degreee pivot? This way you could switch from riot shield to combat in a instant.
He is a nerd look at the stuff he does. #nerdproud
good point, but also moving parts tend to wear with vigorous use, so it may need more maintenance
I would have gone with gsg 9 shield handles, horizontal on the bottom for your arm to go through and a diagonal top handle for your hand
I would rather have a round shield and they make riot round shields, but that is just my prefrence, Never thought about using a sled as a shield, good idea Capt!!
I ordered a round sled earlier this morning. I have plans...wonderful, terrible plans... :D
Can not wait to see that....
Nice
I may have to make myself one of these (sets)
Would be great if you could make one with a translucent blue or purple colored material. Then it would look like a Gungan sheild.
have you thought of mobility with the shield, it could give speed and stealth if you could put the shield on your back
I got a cool idea for you captain Xavier, you like your modular air blasters, and i got a cool idea, you normally rock a shotgun style add-on or a single fire, well how about a clip fed attachment? I mean, it could be difficult, but it would grant you alot of modularity, and versatility. Plus, it'd be like a older gun where you have your standard gun, then you can switch to rifle grenades (demolisher rockets). But sorry that i didnt comment this on those videos. I do think this gear should work quite well and I think it's very cool.
your lightsaber hilt looks like one of em disney buildable ones
If you can’t deflect with the lightsaber then you can block with the shield
applause to the huge nerd.
maybe you could add a pistol holster to the shield something single shot perhaps to keep it on the light side
do u have a lighsaber fighting style I do its called the figure 8 and its self explanatory but the return is good for when theres a group of enemies
a nerf lightsaber... I sense a very exhilarated force...
Nice schield
That little boxy nub on the light saber hilt, near the pommel, that isn't a rail attachment, is it?
If not, why not?
I very rarely do larp fighting at Nerf wars but if i do I normally use a long larp knife and fight with with the blade facing down
Ballistic Kermit
that pool noodle for you sword isn’t big enough it must be enlarged and i know it’s possible cause i have one of the enlarged size and it’s awesome it feels like a buster sword
Dude How do you have time to do all this stuff?? Do you sleep?... I find it hard to get time to poop lol
I work from home...and have almost no social life...
well that would help ☺
Captain Xavier thats me too
a.k.a. Gainesy Set up a workshop in your bathroom
The problem isn't having a workshop, I don't really have a social life either but it's because being a chef and doing 12 to 14 hour days 4 to 5 days week doesn't leave a lot of time after spending time with the girlfriend and family.. nerf when I can but not as much as I'd like
I have my own style: WARLORD STYLE!!!
5:46 ughh 😑. he got us
wow you can train in shield combat??
i need this
I actually teach seminars in Roman vs Greek shield tactics.
wow and i just watch star wars and 300 for the swordplay
but i much need to come up there and attend
+Captain Xavier You are awesome. Nerf m, Star Wars, HEMA, and now shield tactics! I would be very afraid indeed to go up agains you on the battlefield.
Captain Xavier In that case, I should move to Washington state.
I took Shi Cho Lightsaber classes
COOL!!COOL!!!COOL!!!
😂😂
More melee moooorrrreeee
Make an Orisa-esq deployable shield, it sounds like something you could do with PVC, Cardboard, and Door Hinges.
NERRRRRRRD!!!
Don't even try to deny it.
He can pull a breath of the wild and shield surf to get around
where's the HEMA group at in Washington because i have been looking into it and i wanted to try it out
There are several. I go to Grit City HEMA in Tacoma
I like vertical center grip shields, but my background is more viking than roman.
Cool looks like your a Jedi consular... I’m a sentinel
Can't smash like enough
I had an idea hear me out a ballistic sword can like a ballistic knife but shooting the fome pool noodle
oh?
zulu culture?
im a happy south african, Chaylo. youve done me proud.
As Trevor Noah pointed out on QI, if it were not for the guns the Zulus would have conquered Europe. :P
Captain Xavier Another fan of QI?
regardless, it's very nice to see a reference, no matter how small.
Captain Xavier And Very true.
Captain Xavier but still, i am young, ive never been able to truly experience their culture
Ive lived in england all of my life
Handed weapon called the foam-saber.
I may be late but im making this and buying either a RR or a Stryfe
I wonder if it is possible to do a juggernaut built a d cover yourself in shields XD
Do you think you could make a flywheel blaster with RC motors? I've got some ones if you'd like to try it out?
It would depend on the motors. Voltage, torque, etc. Someone send me a link for some super high APM motors and when I tested them they had no torque. Took forever to rev up and then had to re-rev after every shot. Worthless.
Captain Xavier They are these motors. Motor 370 (4200 RPM) (Animus) by Helion RC. Don't know what voltage or torque but I tested them out in a circuit recently and it worked pretty well.
now I want to duel you with that saber
DEATHSTROKE INTRO
Why do I get the feeling if a nerf nuke is possible, it will be invented on this channel? sled shield and all.
It is on the list...
I just use a porta potty door as a shield with a hole cut out with clear plastic over it
hey Capt is the double strike spring a good upgrade for the hammershot
I have no idea. I would not think so.
Captain Xavier ok thanks for the info
Tyler McLean the double strike spring is a teensy bit too thin to fit it on the plunger rod
TEver since you said you fight in steel i wondered if you practised Hema, now i know 😄
Will you be adding holsters on the inside?
Cody Norvell I put a dump pouch and 2 mag holders on mine the work amazingly
That really seems like a Captain Xavier type thing
hey Cap, I was wondering does a nerf dart fit through the barrel of a BOOMco blaster? Cuz I was wondering if it's possible to integrate the shell of a BOOMco blaster to a nerf gun
+Jake Tilbury no. BoomCo darts are smaller than Nerf darts
Is it possible to buy a set like this from You? Particularly the light saber?
