Title: Favorite Weapon!?
Post by: Soul Sojourner on July 11, 2005, 06:13:56 AM
So... peoples... whats ur favorite weapon (old style, not guns etc.) of all time..? (dam not applied, non-game affiliated) I'd have to say mine would most probably be Dai-Katana, one handed of course, then again I have a fascination for halberds//quarterstaffs etc. One of my friends likes typical longswords/longblades but not really long, the other likes reg. katanas, and the another is obsessed with Nodachis///Kodachis... I dont know about the rest though...

KiLL KiLL KiLL... err... DiE DiE DiE... =D

I like Samura�¯-bladed alike weapons and the classic longswords are also nice i don't like much two-handed weapons more like one handed so you have double protection and damage lol

Well the only non-gun weapons I have been trained in are bow and axe. Give me a nice composite bow and a couple hand axes any day. Thank God for those wonderful paramilitary organizations like the Boy Scouts (and my parents thought I was just learning how to build bridges and tie knots).

It's basically a sword that can be used as a one handed sword or a two handed sword. The hilt is long enouph for 1.5 hands and the blade is longer then the adverage long sword.

Not bad that third one, but I prefer longer, and 440 Stainless Steel, still nice, the handle is pretty good, I dont know about durability wise, but it looks good for loose grip, only problem is spinning the sucker... i'd chop my fucking finger off, needs a longer handle =D

Its rather heavy. The stupid thing obviously isnt ment to be anything more than a wall-hanger, but the handle is not loose at all. Weight just means momentem. Like the momentem of me swinging it on top of a robber head = bloodbath

That's what I do, it's easy if you shift quickly, the only problem is when I need to turn on the blinker, downshift AND turn. At that point I have to put my pipe down and use the other hand.

Nope, my friend has one. And yes I can use it with one hand.
You ever think that some of these weapons are purposely made with lightweight metal? I've always wanted one with 440 Stainless Steel, but that would be considerably heavier than the one my friend has, it is strong, but also light.
It still is considerably heavy, but not near as heavy as you make it out to be.

[snapback]29521[/snapback]

A 10,000 megawatt bomb? I'd have to assume you ment 10,000 megaton nuclear bomb, in which case you'd have quite the Doomsday weapon.  A 10,000 megawatt bomb on the other hand, would produce about the same amount of power as the Manitoba Hydro Limestone hydroelectric generating station.  Not quite enough to cause major city wide structural damage or loss of human life.  For example, the most powerful nuclear weapon ever tested was the Russian Tsar Bomba, which had a yield of 50 megatons.  This generated about 5.3 Yottawatts = 5.3x10^24 watts.  Your play toy weapon produces 10^10 watts.  Thats a wopping 14 orders of magnitude less power or a thousand millionth millionth the power.

Simply speaking, the energy released from 1 megaton would be 4,200,000 Gigawatts. 10,000 megawatts = 10 gigawatts, therefore your weapon has the same energy output as a 1/420,000 megaton bomb or about 2.4 tons of TNT, which is about the power of the bomb that destroyed the Murrah Office Building in Oklahoma City.  A big bang but hardly an effective nuclear device.

Have a nice day.
