      Good seeing you here collaborating with Skall.
      Funny enough I had no idea who you were outside of TH-cam until today, you were just the cool guy I started following from back when you played D&D with Metatron.
      Too bad that game didn't last, I loved the crazy assortment of personalities and character concepts.
      Have a good day boss.

    An interesting statistic in the early modern period was that swords were one of the most common weapon. Not because it was the absolute best weapon, but nearly everyone carried one as a side arm. Arquebusiers, pikemen, halberdiers, archers, cavalrymen of various types, etc all tended to carry swords.

    • @Vlad_Tepes_III
      @Vlad_Tepes_III 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Something that many people confuse when discussing the role and purpose of swords is that they consider the terms "secondary weapon" and "backup weapon" to be interchangeable, but they're not.
      If all goes well, if everything goes according to plan, then, you wouldn't need to use your backup weapon. You're supposed to rely on your backup weapon only when things fall apart, when plans go off the rails.
      The usage of swords in battles was very different. Almost everyone who carried a sword, in any battle, anywhere in the world, at any point in human history, would have drawn and used it as a weapon to kill one or more enemy combatants, in every battle they fought. It was not the only weapon used by a soldier, and, in most cases, it was not the first weapon to be used by anyone in pitched battle, but if it was there, it _would_ be used at some point or the other over the course of the battle. The sword was never a backup weapon. It was always carried in battle because it was intended to be used in every battle its wielder fought in. It was just not the primary weapon. The primary weapon was usually a ranged weapon or a polearm (including, lances, which, being spears, are polearms).

    Man listening to this really hammered in (no pun intended) how deadly cavalry really is, and also how gruesome it is ramming a pick or sword into someone at full speed. I can only imagine how terrifying it would be to see that if you were one of the people running away in a rout.

    The whole politician having to fight is one of the things I really found interesting about the Starship Troopers distinction between regular folk and folks that have earned the right to vote usually through service - sure the politician isn't actually going to war now, but they do at least have the experience of being the servant of their society. Knowing what it was like for them and how important this class of people - their peers are to your societies function...

    Good stream. I've grown up riding horses all my life & it is quite a diff experience vs. combat/cutting in foot. One of the most important things to learn will be "the wheel" or "wheeling the horse". It helps with keeping yourself protected using the horses body & the pulling of the reigns causes the horses head to lean away from your cut. Even such small things as getting the horse to stop exactly where you want requires hundreds of hours of training between you & that horse, you shloud be best friends. So be ready for that b4 getting started. Lol

As an introvert and misanthrope myself I know how challenging and intimidating this can be, and how tempting is to just resort on "play it safe" moves all the damn time but as time goes on and I'm getting older I'm starting to think that a life of low risk-low reward cycles is not a life worth living, if it's even a life at all.

    I tend to think the spear is the workhorse, yeah. It probably started before humans were a thing, and never really went away, even if the stick part is now a gun.
    It's up there with thrown rocks, and while you can absolutely argue about the middle stages (calling a bullet a form 'thrown metal rock' sounds kinda silly...) weapon technology starts with thrown rocks and quite possibly ends with relativistic asteroids. Which is just another form of throwing a rock.
