I'm sure at least one of these has been tried/made before...

Top left somewhat resembles a real life technique called half-swording.

[–] SuperNovaStar@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 2 months ago

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

[–] Lianodel@ttrpg.network 5 points 2 months ago

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

Somebody show this to Trudy & Doug of Oglaf.

[–] Mirshe@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Swords Comic too, I'm sure they could make one of these work.

[–] rompe@feddit.org 8 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I'd pay to watch the top-right fight.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Its like fighting with a giant potato peeler

[–] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Bottom left is my favourite. I want two dudes with those weird things to fight .

[–] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Lower center one was a tennis racket in the late 90s iirc.

[–] LogicalDrivel@sopuli.xyz 7 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Top left would have really good tip control and thrust-ability.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That's because it's just a weird spear

[–] LogicalDrivel@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 months ago

Hmm. You have a good point there.

[–] killingspark@feddit.org 5 points 2 months ago

Yeah it's like halfgrip but you don't need to grab the blade

[–] teft@piefed.social 7 points 2 months ago

I never thought of bullpup swords. Genius Ai. Genius.

[–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I love that the hands in the bottom center have too many fingers. 🤌

[–] EffortlessEffluvium@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They all have too many fingers!

[–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I hadn’t noticed that! I zoomed in and it’s true! 🤣

[–] Rug_Pisser@piefed.zip 3 points 2 months ago

Double handed bastard sword.

[–] fonix232@fedia.io 3 points 2 months ago

Now try reverse grip!

[–] FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 1 points 2 months ago

Bottom left: Empire greatswords vibe/stance.
