Everyone knows that the blade of the sword only exists to nerf the existence of the pommel, otherwise it would be a weapon of mass destruction.

[@simonnachreiner8380]

Tbh in plate armor v plate armor sword fights the pommel really was the business end. Blade is pretty much useless as any dude who wants to live will guard his joints from a blade but a 6 lbs cross guard (cross guard in a balanced sword is equal in weight to the _entire_ blade) is a pretty good purpose built bludgeon.

[@Klovaneer]

@@simonnachreiner8380 Do you mean to say that 12 lbs swords were a regular sight? Even zweihanders only got to around 9. Also not sure how dissecting sword sections by weight gonna influence things, you always work with a lever.

[@patrickdusablon2789]

@@simonnachreiner8380 how can the crossguard on a 3-4 pound sword weigh in at 6 pounds? Hell, Castille Armory's heaviest longsword pommel is 15 ounces... But what makes the pommel hit so much harder is that it's usually a solid chunk of steel, with no flex or give, which makes it a whole lot of concentrated force.

[@thecringeprophet]

Kingdom come deliverance is amazing.

[@oolooo]

Kingdom Come : Deliverance both stands on its own and deals with so much untapped potential for the sequel .It is greatly fun with accurate combat and an accurate depiction of early XVth century Holy Roman Empire (Except its depiction of the Church , that sucked) .Can not wait for the next game to bring us even more authenticity , even prettier equipment (The Arming Swords in this game were kind of short and ugly) and places and even better storytelling .Also , Sword and Buckler needs to be a thing . Hope they can add some Comission mechanics , to design our own sword , armour and clothing .It would be epic .

[@fayruzzee]

they need to add crossbow surely. ancient bohemia is famously for so

[@ExtremeMan10]

@@fayruzzee Crossbows take to long to load and were primaly used in defense. Hussite wars employed crossbows first in Bohemia at large, and the wars started in 1419 (the game even nudges towards it as the in real life the Bohemia in 1403-1419 was heavily "no mans land" in center and to the west, basically all roads were dangerous because of Cumans (yes they were thing for 20 years in Bohemia), bandits and even looters and soldiers.

[@ryanwight9116]

@@ero-samairianto625 I definitely agree, I’ve yet to see a game that does a “pathetic nobody to overpowered knight” in such a satisfying and/or realistic way. The game is NOT something you can rush through, it requires you to practice and take your time and I think that turned off a lot of casual gamers.

Agree I stared during hema about a year before the game dropped

[@frankbalooga7263]

Another detail in the combat is that sometimes, your opponent wont let you keep hitting him, he'll do those counter attacks and those clinches and even dodge. I swear, if I had a penny for every time Bernard stopped me from performing those combo attacks...

[@witoldschwenke9492]

yea combo attacks are basically impossible against any opponent that is actually a threat to you. They are possible against really weak opponents. Weirdly enough even peasants constantly block and counter attack a maxed out level 20 swordmanship henry.

[@ExtremeMan10]

@@witoldschwenke9492 Its because of the stamina. Bernard tells you that you have to wear the enemy down before you do any tricky moves. Best is this seen with Runt or Zoul, both of them are hands down the hardest bosses in the game (excluding the old knight you find in Sasau during main quest) and its impossible to perform it on them as they will riposte the last hit if they have stamina.

[@patrickdusablon2789]

I asked the studio, way back when, when they were sending their updates/hype videos. They are using techniques from the Liechtenhauer tradition through and through. So far as I know, there are no extant fechtbuch from Bohemia, but men-at-arms tended to travel, especially the ones going from contract to contract, so wherever they learned to fight would travel with them.
