I'm a big guy, not exactly slow when I fight but I'm definitely not one of the "zippy" ones. I'm built for comfort, not for speed. Anyway, the best way to combat "zippy" fighters is with good, no, GREAT defense. Let them wear themselves out then move on for the kill. Having a great defense will...
Hi,
Actually, some of the humanoid races of that world use The Drindox as a rite of passage of sorts. Orcs in particular will send young males into Drindox herds so they can attempt to ride one for a certain distance or for a certain amount of time. Being able to dismount and get away intact is...
Greetings,
Or I should say NuqneH. (Let's see how big of a star Trek fan you are.)
Welcome. Thanks for joining us here. Sorry for my tardiness. I somehow overlooked your post. I must have fallen asleep on the Fairie mound again.
What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

We’ll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes,
But the plural of ox should be oxen, not oxes.
Then one fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese,
You may find a lone mouse or a whole nest of mice,
But the plural of house is houses, not hice...
I have as few casual observations based on what is here and I'll need to make a few assumptions which may not be accurate.
Population: Originally the city was designed to have a max population of 5 million. I'm assuming that since most of the manual labor was designed to be in the down levels...
I have fought duel sword so I know a bit. Historically, There isn't really anything before the late 1500s and it deals more with fencing then actual sword fighting. Most historical forums will say that duel weapon fighting wasn't practical unless the off hand weapon was considerably smaller than...
