Average Demo watcher showing up at the ranch during shtf: "Where my 50 baus?" Average Admin watcher showing up during shft: "Where's a fal and rhodesian bdu?" Managerial Outcomes watcher: "Sire, I require your strongest war bow."

[@sirapple2406]

My War-bows are too strong for you.

[@eriklarson9137]

This is 100% true. Which is why I unsubbed. I am a few grades above wanting a stupid longbow in 2024.

As a total medieval history nerd, thank you! This was a great conversation.

[@christopherduke8935]

The polearm Admin's thinking of is the French knightly melee weapon called a Bec de Corbin. It has a long piercing "beak" in place of the "axe" side of the typical European poleaxe. The slender beak was better at delivering massive amounts of energy through a smaller surface area. This made it perfect for sending haymakers through textile, maille and plate armour but at the cost of a typical halberd's chopping versatility. /themoreyouknow

[@ryanhamstra49]

1:03:35 talking about going back to watch ancient battles, Arthur c Clarke wrote a book about a type of “time travel” where you couldn’t interact with the past but could view it, and eventually view it like VR where you could walk around a battle field or a Roman market or whatever and actually see exactly what happened like you were in a movie. Super interesting concept I thought.

[@ryanhamstra49]

Book was “the light of other days”

[@FitFrHome]

I consider myself to be pretty strong and that war now humbled me. I think it requires practice and development of the specific muscles needed to move in that line of the draw.

[@ThisHandleIsntAvailableTryANew]

My edc xbow keeps slinging rounds through my floorboard while I'm at work. I've gotta put a new trigger on it.

[@Tetonhiker007]

You should get a horse-bow and try Asiatic style with thumb draw

[@Waldemarvonanhalt]

Speaking of which, check out Namnaa archery school in Mongolia.

[@ghowell13]

[@americanman5270]

Loved hearing Bernard Cornwell referenced here. For context I'm 26 and read The Fort when I was 13. Following that I read the Saxon Tales. Very influential books when it comes to my love for history and "accurate" historical fiction

[@scholasticaltactical9058]

[@gus7850]

in regards to famous individuals who always used swords, there actually were a few who were known for using other weapons, like Richard the Lionheart, he was known for wielding a big battle axe

[@c2099]

What a great conversation between two of my favorite KZbinrs. Only negative thing I can say is that it was too short, but families and filming take precedent so I understand. Looking forward to a part two, and when are you going to have Dash shoot an arrow down a barrel Admin?

[@NoMatureContent]

Folks werent wearing plate armour when they used long swords and claymores. Thats why they used sharp edged weapons, to cut through the padded armour. They moved to the pointy boys when people started plating up (and the bashin' blunt weapons too).

[@armandojuarez1926]

A lot of fun. Really enjoyed this episode. Hey I live about 30 minutes from Fresno in Tulare. I shoot compound bow. Got into it about 3 years ago. Really fun. Keep up the good work

As a black powder nerd and a slinger (still a 2a absolutest) you should make at least a short about slings! I can't expect you to get great though honestly, they're very hard to learn.

I have a suggestion for OP: Check out Indian clubs and maces. Another esoteric form of exercise to look into.

[@PacNorWes]

Yes! Chivalry 2! That game is way underated. New players join without putting any time into learing the mechanics and get clapped out, then quit the game and never play it again. Give it some dang time to learn and it will be a blast. Chiv 2 is hilarious and a lot of fun, especialy if you play with a friend or 2 and work together in fights. It's one of my favorite games. Siege equipment, TONs of single and dual handed weapons, war bow, siege crossbow, javelins, flaming chickens! I need to get back on to stomp some nubs

[@8FtCactus]

Jack Fang shoots warbows on his channel Historical Weapons, and The Way of Archery is a good Asiatic warbow channel (and book)

Hackathorn in the Middle Ages “This crossbow thing is just another fad. Be a man and use the longbow.”

[@germ4bass]

I just got Vicks vapour rub in my eye it take witching your video to the next level .

[@iansanchez331]

So from my understanding, crossbow is for your general infantry (absolute brick eaters but not as well trained) and longbows are for ye old seal team six (eat breath sleep training when they're not busy stacking bodies)

[@steezydan8543]

The games that I feel represent combat the best are Steel Division 2, WARNO and Broken Arrow (yet to be released). All three are multiplayer real time strategy games that also have grand strategy campaigns, like the Winter War between the Finns and the Russians, where you can control either side as the General and command individual combat divisions to fight the war the way you want to. Huge factor is mental load, you become overwhelmed quickly and it's very easy to get discouraged when half of your units get instantly vaporized by an arty strike, but the good commander fights even his losing battles to the end.

[@GarageGunsmith]

OMG AN ARROW AUTISM RANTS ❤

[@Scads_In_Space]

Ok, Fiiiinnee, Ill get back into archery

[@martinez206045]

Omg, I had no clue he likes Manor Lords too :D Bonus cool fact: if you levy your militia (made up from part of your peasants), then the amount of working hands in your economy drops - so things will be built, harvested etc. slower or not at all. And in a recent patch the dev added a morning period for a household if the peasant goes to battle and dies - so another 'villager' can't spawn back in too fast. So taking your villagers in the army for two years is going to wreck your economy - be careful :D

[@zfgnerdlife]

Could you try pulling the bow with your palm out? Since I feel like that should put less strain on your arm since you aren't twisting your arm as much

Man they did it wrong. They should have given the crossbow guy a cart that held like 6 - 10 cross bows with a shield mounted to the front of the cart and then give the crossbow guy a designated reloader. They would have had their shield and almost a never ending supply of loaded crossbows. Also they could ram horses with the carts if they sent calvary that made it through the crossbow bolts.

The movie is 110% The Return starring Ralph Fiennes btw. It's based on Homer's Odyssey. If he got to work with Fiennes, that's super awesome, and I believe 100% he'd be an enthusiastic student of niche subjects. Of course, this is all wild speculation from a 3rd party and Dash has not given any information that would outright confirm it and it's all circumstantial... blah blah blah.
