When fighting an opponent in plate armor, a blade isn't going to do shit. It's best to use the pommel or guard as a club or mace.
>>150948562
>>150948575
Go fuck yourself, you illiterate peasants.It's call Halfswording and it is the only effective way to take dow an armred opponent using a longsword
>>150948562
Half-swording.
>>150948698
but you can't hold the end of a blade like that. it's sharp. maybe you'd be able to actually defeat plate armor if you sharpened your fucking sword instead of dulling it so you could treat it like a fucking war hammer.
>>150948698
That's retarded. It's clearly staged and they clearly suck.
I'd fuck both of them up in a sword fight and I've never even hold a sword.
>>150948768
Or you'd break it because the sides are so thin. Lots of european swords aren't sharp because they don't need to be. Their cutting power isn't in the sharpness but in the swing.

Yes, that's why people in medieval times wore armored gloves so they can use this technique when the situation arises plus it defends their hands too.

What slanderous attacks hast thou thrown against my good name, thou contemptible wench? Whereas I have risen even unto the foremost rank in the Royal Admiralty; whereas I have on many an occasion partaken in clandestine crusades against the Saracens; whereas by mine hands have fallen barbarians numbering some fifteen score; whereas I am most skilled in the ways of the ape warrior; whereas I am the premier marksman amongst all of our Kingdom's knights: Thou art in my sights but yet another quarry. The Lord be my witness, I shall smite thee as no-one under the sun hath heretofore been smitten. Dost thou deign to fancy thyself secure to cast thy spittle upon my face from behind the Spider's Veil? Then thou hast wandered into grievous error. Yea, even at this very moment, I am sending word across the land to my fellow Templars, and the provenance of thy scrivenings shall in short time become known unto me. A veritable maelstrom of vengeance is upon thy gates, thou wretched worm, which surely shall obliterate thy loathsome pretension of life. Truly, thou art foregone, child. I move as swift as the wind, and with mine own two hands I may at my pleasure slay thee in any of thirty and five score modes. For verily as I am a master in the pugilistic arts, even so doth the manifold armory of the Royal Guard lie at my beck and call, which in its plenitude of power I shall not delay to unleash upon thee, that thy fœtid flesh may no longer pollute this land with its presence, thou pitiful putrescence. Would that thou couldst have foreseen what great wrath thou hast by thy "brazen" jocosity summoned upon thyself! Perhaps thou wouldst have rather kept shut thy filth-spewing mouth. But neither couldst thou thus foresee, nor didst thou take heed of prudence, and thou art now reaping what thou hast sown, thou accursèd simpleton. I will excrete rage all round about thee, wherein shalt thou be consumed. Thou hast shuffled off this mortal coil, urchin.

It's true. If you sharpen your sword enough, you can cut through a steel plate. The more sharp, the more you can cut. The other day, I accidentally made my kitchen knife too sharp, and accidentally chopped my kitchen counter in half. It was just like Japanese katanas at Pearl Harbor.

I totally get wanting to show curves and skin. But at least make it light armor then. Leather, a few metal guards sprinkled over the place and stuff like that.

>>150947632
100% realistic girl armor is fucking boring
There needs to be at least a little femininity or it's just a guy with a really girly face
>>150950557
Katanas, and other curved swords only cut better in concept, not practice. The katana wasn't even intended to be curved, it's a product of shit steel and strange heat treating methods.
>>150951037
I like thighs as much as the next guy but I'm really tired of seeing armour or costume designs make really stupid compromises in order to shove exposed thighs in.

I mostly agree with you, but occasionally it works really well.
Personally I'm a fan of armor that aren't really practical but look like they could work and look cool. Dark souls is a gold mine for this.
>>150951169
which compromises do you find preferable then?
Does a shield provide enough of an excuse to skimp on the armor?
>>150951276
Ones that don't have enormous gaps in them because the designer wanted to shove tits in your face.

>>150947632

>>150948908
>do it pretty strongly
>obvious pulls the swing back before it hits so he doesn't cut himself
This is autistic. And a free hanging object can be pushed just as easily by giving it a light shove. This demonstrate, if anything, is proof that this half swording garbage is complete nonsense and most likely fanciful crap produced for the sake of culture and artistic value.
>you will never be raped by a femknight
>>150951424
It's a mystery~
>>150951561
This is an odd gap in my statement that you're pushing.
If we're going to argue semantics you could just say that the helmet is a separate piece not being worn in that image.
Question: What is the fabric hanging down in front called?
>>150948488
No such thing as practical armor for women. No one would pay to have armor made specifically for a woman so they'd just be wearing male armor, which would be much too big and cumbersome for them simply because of the size and proportional differences between men and women, especially underfed women and well fed, trained men.

I'm not talking about weight. I'm talking about fit. Even an ill-fitted modern suit can hamper your ability to move, but it'll go doubly so for a suit of armor, especially when you're on a battlefield full of butt monkeys degenerating into violent animals.
Also, this is a PSA to get your clothes fitted. Even if you're a fat lard you should look respectable in clothes that don't make you look even worse.
>>150951644
>you will never be the brotagonist
>>150951944
You can tell by the way his legs are slightly spread and the turned out knees that he's running unnaturally. I'm going to assume he's a normal human being so it's probably the suit. It's how people with the wrong size cup run.
>>150951932
>What are crests

Your helmet is a perfectly valid way of showing your importance. It's just nobody uses any indicators.
>>150952043
This is under the assumption that our theoretical woman is some underfed and underpaid loser scrounging some mail from somebody else, at which point she would probably have better luck throwing on some more gender-ambiguous chain mail and a gambison because at least that shit fits.

If you were obscenely rich, in fact plate armor in general was only for the very wealthy. The idea of hundreds of knights rampaging on a battlefield is a myth, it was just some of the guys who were rich enough to afford their own horses. The wealth was controlled by the men in the middle ages and even if it weren't for one exceptional family society wouldn't accept it. Middle age Europe had very prominent societal values in every day life. Women in armor is pure fantasy and the alleged cases are most likely nothing more than propaganda, as most cases of women fighting in WWII were also (usually Russian) propaganda.

>>150952973
Well, if you say so, but typically when there's doubt involved people include qualifiers, as I have. I'm not omniscient, unlike you apparently, so I said it's "unlikely." Reasonably speaking while I have reason to doubt the existence of such armor I have no reason to believe it could not have existed under any circumstances.
I'm not certain that you're actually convinced in historical accuracy, though, so I'll just leave you with that.

it does matter if you have it as the picture i replied to. Imagine having 2 metal cups around your bare chest and walking into a wall. That's going to hurt your sternum.
>>150960744
Not really, it disperses the pressure around the edges of the cups, which would also be worn over thick padding anyway. If you have mosquito bite boob armor that might do something, but riveted armor is a thing and even that doesn't really matter. Moreover, why are you just walking into walls tits first?

There were plenty of cultures where women fought, although you are correct that they very rarely participated in standard infantry battles.
The Scythians and Mongols and their ilk, for example. The women were in charge of teaching the kids how to ride and shoot, and if their camp got raided while the men were away they'd mount up and have a go at the cunts attacking.
>>150950557
Not sure if bait or not but: Barely. Katanas are a bit sharper because they have a hard steel edge for cutting, they basically work like a straight razor. A katana is a bit sharper than European swords, and a whole lot weaker.
If you bend a katana, it will remain bent and unusable (while you can bend a European sword almost 90 degrees to the side). IF you hit anything but flesh with a katana, the edge will basically disappear on the spot (because the metal on the edge is so brittle). Everyone at the time and before could make blades as sharp as the katana, they just didn't want to because the small gain in cutting power really isn't worth the durability tradeoff.
On top of that katanas are very short and very heavy for their length, on top of having a shitty guard and not a very good point, nor are they sharp on both sides.
TL:DR there's a good reason samurai did not use katanas as main weapon but more of a sidearm and status symbol. It's a pretty shitty weapon, really.

HEMAfag here, I'll try to answer some questions
>>150948562
She seems to be doing the Mordhau, the Murder Stroke. There have been some doubts in this thread about the utility of this technique. I will explain its reasonings.
When you are fighting against an armored opponent, you need to deliver blunt damage, because armors easily deflect swords. Thats why, in actual battles, weapons like poleaxes and maces were used. But, when I a duel, knights and noblemen used swords. In this situation, because duellists were armed with swords and protected with armors, they resorted to using the pommel of the sword as a weapon.
Now, I have seen some replies stating that this was stupid, because the swordman might get his hands cut. That was not the case because of two reasons. First, the were protected by gloves, and medieval gloves protected so fucking much. Second, swordsmen of that time, precisely because they did not want to get cut in the hands, they, on purpose, did not sharp the lower half of the blade, so as to grab the sword, even with naked hands, with no problem.
This tecnique, as stated, was used when you were armed with a sword, and wanted to beat an armored foe, which was a pretty rare situation. Either you were in a duel, or you were in the, highly unlikely, situation in a battle when you were forced to draw your sword and wanted to beat another armored foe. Might have been useful to make prisoner an enemy nobleman, who knows.
>>150948768
Highly impossible. Armors were designed to deviate enemy slashing weapons and stop some of its damage. If you are thinking about that famous vid about a katana cutting an armor, keep in mind that the katana is actually striking the piece of metal rather than cutting through it. And, for blunting an armor, a warhammer or an axe is preferable.
>>150949055
Because knights were concerned with far more things other than rape.
(Cont.)
>>150948698
>halfswording
No you fucking retard, she's using mordhau. Halfswording is grabbing the blade to have better control of the tip, but what she'd doing is using the pommel and guard and a mace.
>>150965374
>TL:DR there's a good reason samurai did not use katanas as main weapon but more of a sidearm and status symbol. It's a pretty shitty weapon, really.
Katanas were fine for what they were used. And basically all cultures, since ALL swords are fucking shit on the field as anything other than sidearms.
>>150972534
(Cont.)
>>150949183
>>150949284
As I said before, bringing a mace was what actual warriors did in an actual medieval battle. Swords were mostly kept to duelling, and in cavalry charges.
The light armor thing is retarded. Maces are as effective as any other weapon. Historically, there were not such thing as a light armor. Either you wore some decent protection, like chainmail or plate armor, or you fought without it. And no, there were not "leather armors". The most historically remote leather armour you would find was the jerkin, and that was used to fencing practice, rather than actual battle.
>>150949245
Fucking gold.
>>150950557
Keep in mind that katanas were sharpend on only one edge and where curved, thus making them better suited for slashing.
>>150950949
So much true.
>>150951348
>>150951578
Exactly. Shields were used because the first armors did not protect the full body very well. It was with the development of the full plate that the shield was abandoned, and the longsword was adopted.
>>150951717
An armor was made for the person who paid for it. It did not matter if it was a man or a woman. And, design-wise, there wouldnt be much differences between an armor designed for a man and an armor designed for a woman. Safety was universal.
>>150952021
Open helmets were pretty practical in battle. You needed to be able to open your helmet from time to time to view the battlefield, to breath, to wipe out the blood in your face... Closed helmets, on the other hand, were mostly used for duelling, where there was no battlefield to care for, or a wide space, to speak of. When you know you have one opponent, that is almost always in front of you, do you really need to have a perfect line of vision?
>>150952251

>>150973254
>katanas were sharpend on only one edge and where curved
they're like a giant, brittle fillet knife
>>150956200
>>150956815
Plate armor was developed at the same time as guns (even a bit later) and it was standard for plate to be bullet-proof. It took centuries for guns to get good enough to make armor useless.
>>150955805
>Also they have breasts so that would be impossible.
>all women have huge tits
I mean, for fuck's sake, even considering tits, men on average have a bigger chest circumference than women and there's a shitload of padding under the armor anyway. Using breasts as an argument for women being unable to wear armor is stupid.
>>150973487
IIRC, plate armor went out of fashion more because steel/iron was needed to make firearms rather than it being ineffective against them, and was still used by some wealthy enough or disposed to wear it.
>>150973254
(Cont.)
>>150952442
Mostly true, but there were real instances of women wearing armor. Mostly because they became the unlikely head of the family, as the male heirs died, so they had to get shit done. Also, some women wanted to fight, so they crossdressed.
>>150952839
Parade and jousting helms. No serious shit, just for fun, like gangster dipping in gold their guns.
>>150955805
Just bind the breasts with a band. Problem solved.
>>150956152
No its not.
>>150956207
The blacksmith had a family to feed. He would craft any shit that was assigned to him if they payed him well. Also, making armors was a crafting job, not something you can mass-produce. It was more akin to going to a tailor to order some clothes than going to the mall to buy clothes. So, as I stated before, it was perfectly possible to craft an armor for a woman.
>>150956410
Another actual battle tactic. Points for you.
>>150956557
Not just women, I would be fucking afraid of a guy that can survive a medieval battle with little to no protection.
>>150956815
The first pistols were pretty crappy. Zero to no accuracy and almost no reach. During those first times, an armour could perfectly stop a bullet, albeit from a certain distance. A point blank shot certainly would have killed a knight.
I hope that I provided some insight in the issue of medieval warfare and duelling. I might check back this thread, to see if you have any more questions.

>>150973940
I'm talking from ignorance, but didn't the alloy they used to make katanas contain some of clay or a similar substance?
I heard that it gave them ceramic properties, aka it takes way more to lose their sharpness compared to other swords, but it's also one of the things that make them so fucking fragile.
Is this true? I'm really curious.

My understanding is that the non-upper class folks who weren't knights and so wouldn't have access to full plate armor would instead be using gambesons with a couple pieces of armor fitted on. I've seen vids of recreations blocking stabs pretty handily.
And that is true, right? That not everyone on a battlefield would be wearing full plate armor, since it'd be expensive.

I just want to serve under a battle princess.

What happens when he has to poop after getting all that armor on?
>>150956207
Nigga, suits of armor were fitted to the knight (or whoever) they were commissioned for. They weren't mass-produced, that would be retarded.

Opens the poop and pee holes so he can do it.

That armor looks a lot more accessible than a knight in full plate.
The leggings look like they just untie and he can lift up his dress to go.
While a knight in full plate? Well, he just goes. There's usually a flap in front for taking a piss, but when you gotta shit in the middle of a battle, you don't have time to ask the filthy Saracens for a 2-hour poop break.
Besides, any knight has a squire or page to scrub the armor clean later.

Hello new Baldur's Gate picture.
Is that Saber
I can't believe no one has posted Henry VIII's glorious jousting helmet.

Plate on her stomach is wrong. The lower plate should be on top so that she can't get stabbed under the ribs.
>>150995739
the "line" there looks like it could belong to either part of the plate

He's wearing a helmet though. And the reason they left so much uncovered is because it doesn't matter that much when you already have a huge fuck-off shield. They'd have covered the rest of their bodies if it were cost-effective.

The edge of the armor above her arm on our right looks like it implies what the other anon stated.

Look how vulnerable her armpits are. Her fingers too. Part of her elbows as well. Her legs aren't even covered

It's threads like this which make me realize what a goddamn bullet I dodged by changing away from a history major.
Well, plus having a degree that actually takes skill to obtain and I can put to use in non-McDonalds-related career paths. That's also nice.

you can always study history as a hobby

It's honestly OK if you don't know what half-swording is, Anon, but you should know better than to say stuff like that about topics you don't know very much about. If you had just asked normally what she was doing nobody would have laughed at you
