I'm sure at least one of these has been tried/made before...
That middle one is some anime shit.
It's a bullpup design sword
Top left somewhat resembles a real life technique called half-swording.
True, but no one would ever put a handle there. At least not jutting out to the side like that.
I think it's been long enough that I forgot I don't like Munchkin, and want to play Munchkin.
The classic blunder
Right alongside "Never get involved in a land war in Asia," and "Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line."
I think I'm going to steal that middle design for my Numenera campaign
> zweihander
Fun fact: "Zweihänder" is just German for "two-hand-er". 😅
I'd pay to watch the top-right fight.
Its like fighting with a giant potato peeler
Bottom left is my favourite. I want two dudes with those weird things to fight .
Somebody show this to Trudy & Doug of Oglaf.
Swords Comic too, I'm sure they could make one of these work.
Top left would have really good tip control and thrust-ability.
That's because it's just a weird spear
It's a weird spear with a dangerous cutting blade near the wielder. All the danger of a long sword blade for the user, without the ability to use it for cutting or slashing because of the handle.
Hmm. You have a good point there.
Yeah it's like halfgrip but you don't need to grab the blade
Lower center one was a tennis racket in the late 90s iirc.
I never thought of bullpup swords. Genius Ai. Genius.
top right is definitely something you'd see in a stupid 70s sci-fi movie as an alien's traditional duelling weapon.
Reminds me of Michael Jackson's Beat It, where the two gang leaders have one wrist tied together and their switchblades in their other hand.
It would make for an interesting duel though. Can you maneuver the cutting part of the blade to somewhere dangerous while your opponent controls their handle?
I love that the hands in the bottom center have too many fingers. 🤌
They all have too many fingers!
I hadn’t noticed that! I zoomed in and it’s true! 🤣
Double handed bastard sword.
Now try reverse grip!
Bottom left: Empire greatswords vibe/stance.
I'd like to imagine the wiggly fight in the upper right corner
