Sword: The Harbinger

Archives for ships and fleets. 'nuff said. Most of the ships here are very very old and will not work in current versions of BSF or SM. You have been warned!

No. You don't come across as a liar - it's only that people usually demand evidence for things which they find either hard to believe or plain ridiculous. In your case, it was the first one.
What, exactly, is hard to believe about someone claiming to have fought with swords before? It doesn't mean that they've actually tried killing someone in a sword fight or anything. I've had some (read: very, very little) experience with fighting with real swords, and plenty of experience using wooden practice swords and japanese shinai. I know more than a handful of people who have used swords. It's not that uncommon. Granted, these days it's something that people do more for fun or experience rather than to learn how to defend themselves.

Spoot:
The ship looks fairly nice. If it were a real sword, yeah, those spikes on the underside of the crossguard would be somewhat counter-productive, but it's not a real sword, it's a ship, and it looks pretty damn sweet, actually. One of the better sword-shaped ships I've seen.

Hah! :lol: That's what I get for not paying attention while typing. I meant yours. I'll fix it now. Although Malahite's sword does look quite cool, if insanely impractical.

Daxx is in a metal band AND he fights medieval dudes with swords? Either he is the coolest guy ever or the biggest geek in the world. I can't decide!Image

Yeah, I'm a pretty hardcore geek in far too many ways.

Somewhere this thread went waaaaaaay off-topic.

My band refuses to let me wear my chainmail on stage :(

About the drawing: Yeah it meant only for looks, and the spiral part was was meant to be fabric, and not metal. Thou anyway, who cares, as long as you don't try to actually make or use something like that? :roll:

...but... a guy asked me if he could use it to make a sword in second life... >.>

Alright, I removed the weapons it already has, you can probably make a better energy effect than I can.
Let me know how it turns out.

You gotta be kidding me... How the HELL did I miss this one?!
Is this a new version or something? I liked the one with the handguard more. :P

YES! I DID IT!!!
Lol. Spoot, just mod the megabeam...(I left it visible though... Shrink it later.)

I still need to up the damage...

Edit: I think we need the line the blade with aegis fields. Also, I need to increase the Megabeam range to cover the sword.
