Extra text to avoid absurd low content non-sense. Seriously, why is it so low? I once had a warning for a 14 symbol post, and that's not even counting the spaces.

Just when I thought you couldn't be anymore awesome.Daystar Clarion said:Well, considering Daystar Clarion is actually the name of a weapon from a series of novels...
A flaming sword to be exact
OT: I'd probably end up becoming some sort of two-hander, an axe are greatsword maybe, nothing really special.
An Abakan, because even the mighty Kalashnikov is in need of evolution.
Strong, accurate, reliable, uncommon but hardly exotic.

Whatever will let me either destroy everything and win every battle that way or something that'll let me stay out of fights, Sword of Damocles-style.
Sadly, I am not that awesome, so I would probably be something cowardly that would be long-ranged and accurate enough to stay the heck away from anything trying to kill me. Like a rifle.

I've gotten to try a replica halberd made to original specs, and it was surprisingly light. However, they are massively unbalanced, as pretty much all the weight is at the top. The inertia makes for one hell of a swinging type strike, not so much for being easy to wield. Of course, it was usually not used for that, they were mainly used for long reach with a spear tip, as well as the axe for when something really needed some cleaving. Still one of my favorite old-timey weapons though.Wadders said:Yeah, no doubt. But they're nothing compared to some versions you see in games.Amethyst Wind said:
I'm no expert, but given how common they were as infantry weapons, it's unlikely they would have been massively heavy. There's probably been research into it, but I'm too lazy to look really
OT: A chained flail. Cool to look at, devastatingly powerful in trained hands, and extremely dangerous to its own wielder if he/she hasn't been trained. Also, it looks sweet, can't emphasize that enough.
A simple, yet impractically massive great sword. Even if you have my soul, you're gonna need to be a little bit super human to use it properly! On the up side, if you are able to wield me effectively you should be able to cleave multiple enemies in half with a single swing.
A lightsaber A weapon for a more civilized age
Plus that means I can be a powerful weapon people fight over for years to come

I'd probably end up becoming a saxe knife. Think the viking one's are calle d seax, but I heard about the Ranger's Apprentice 'version' first, so I'll use it. It's basically a weapon and a tool, very useful.
