Who Got the Edge
Scythian Sword vs Broadsword: The
Broadsword
gets
the
edge.
It's
blade
is
much
longer
than
that
of
the
Scythian's
sword,
and
has
a
greater
chance
of
getting
through
the
Scythian's
Scale
Mail
than
the
Scythian
Sword
has
of
getting
through
the
Knight's
Full
Plate.
Scythian Spear vs Halberd: The
Halberd
gets
the
edge.
Although
both
weapons
are
about
the
same
length,
the
Halberd
has
far
more
versitility
(hacking,
stabbing,
and
hooking)
than
the
Scythian
Spear
(stabbing).
The
Scythian
Spear,
however,
has
a
good
chance
of
piercing
the
Knight's
Full
Plate.
Scythian Bow & Arrow vs Arbalest Crossbow: The
Scythian
Bow
&
Arrow
gets
the
edge.
Operating
a
bow
is
easier
than
operating
a
crossbow,
and
a
Scythian
can
get
more
arrows
flying
through
the
air
than
a
Knight
can
with
his
bolts.
Scythian Axe vs Morningstar: The
Morningstar
gets
the
edge.
The
Scythian
Axe
is
great
against
targets
without
headgear,
but
the
Knight
is
wearing
a
durable
steel
helmet
(watch
Pirate
vs
Knight
for
proof).
On
top
of
that,
the
Morningstar
has
a
greater
reach
than
the
axe,
and
can
kill
a
target
with
a
single
blow
to
the
head.
Scale Mail & Iron Helment vs Full Plate: The
Knight's
Full
Plate
gets
the
edge.
The
Scythian's
Scale
Mail
only
covered
his
torso,
leaving
his
legs
&
arms
totally
exposed,
and
was
capable
of
taking
only
light
to
moderate
blows.
His
Helmet,
on
the
other
hand,
could
deflect
projectiles,
and
take
a
physical
blow
to
the
head
if
the
attack
wasn't
too
powerful.
The
Knight's
Full
Plate,
on
the
other
hand,
covers
him
from
head
to
toe,
and
can
take
all
manner
of
attacks.
Setup
On
a
windswept
plain,
a
Scythian
Warrior
was
looking
out
on
the
horizon.
The
sun
was
just
beginning
to
set,
turning
the
sky
a
beautiful
golden-red
color.
The
wind
was
gentle,
and
carried
with
it
a
subtle
warmth
that
could
be
felt
on
the
face.
The
warrior
was
on
his
way
home
after
a
series
of
skirmishes
against
the
Gauls,
all
of
which
he
one
single
handed.
The
fight
that
was
to
come,
however,
would
push
his
skills
to
the
limit.
As
he
was
riding
over
a
small
hill,
the
warrior
noticed
smoke
rising
into
the
air.
He
got
to
the
top
of
the
hill,
and
noticed
a
small
camp,
where
a
armored
figure
was
tending
to
some
meat
over
a
spit.
He
recognized
the
armored
figure
as
a
Knight,
one
of
the
few
foes
that
he'd
never
face
before.
Seeing
an
opportunity
to
add
to
his
resume
of
opponents
slain,
the
warrior
took
his
bow
from
his
horse's
saddle,
and
picked
a
barbed
arrow
from
the
quiver
on
his
back.
He
knocked
it,
aimed,
and
fired.
The
arrow
went
flying
towards
the
Knight.
It
hit
the
target,
but
the
arrow
bounced
off
the
plate.
The
knight,
feeling
the
arrow
bounce
off
his
armor,
saw
the
Scythian
who
shot
at
him.
The
warrior
was
raising
another
arrow,
just
as
he
was
raising
his
crossbow
to
return
fire.
Both
men
shot
at
the
same
time,
and
arrow
&
bolt
flew
at
each
other.
A
second
later,
both
projectiles
hit
each
other,
and
fell
to
the
ground.
Irritated,
the
Scythian
placed
his
bow
back
onto
his
horse's
saddle,
then
grasped
the
spear
that
he
thrusted
into
the
ground
before
his
assault,
and
rode
away.
Not
wanting
to
show
cowardice,
the
Knight
went
for
his
own
horse,
as
well
as
his
Halberd,
and
rode
after
his
attacker.
Both
men
were
now
on
a
flat
part
of
the
plains.
They
stared
each
other
down,
looking
for
some
kind
of
opening.
Then,
the
Scythian
starting
galloping
towards
the
knight,
holding
his
spear
straight
in
front
of
him.
To
counter
such
an
obvious
attack,
the
Knight
charged
with
his
Halberd
straight
outward,
with
an
obvious
emphasis
on
the
point
of
the
weapon.
A
moment
later,
and
both
spear
and
Halberd
made
contact.
The
spear
shattered
into
pieces,
and
the
tipe
flew
into
the
air.
The
Scythian,
stunned
by
the
attack,
drew
out
his
sword,
and
waited
for
the
Knight
to
make
another
pass
at
him.
The
Knight
charged
the
Scythian,
all
the
while
noticing
that
his
opponent
wasn't
moving.
It
didn't
matter,
as
he
wouldn't
allow
a
coward
to
stand
in
front
of
him.
The
Knight
was
within
striking
distance
with
his
Halberd,
when
the
Scythian
miracuously
dodged
the
point
of
the
weapon,
and
sliced
it
in
half
with
his
sword.
The
Knight,
furious
at
his
inability
to
notice
such
an
attack,
drew
his
Broadsword,
and
got
off
his
horse.
The
Scythian
did
the
same.
They
walked
towards
each
other,
and
immediately
started
swinging
their
blades.
The
Scythian,
being
the
faster
of
the
two
warriors,
was
getting
in
more
blows
than
his
armored
opponent.
The
Knight,
meanwhile,
was
blocking
the
frenzied
attacks
that
the
Scythian
was
using.
Finally,
after
getting
frustrated,
the
Knight
started
swinging
back
with
his
Broadsword,
hoping
that
the
heavier
blade
would
either
break
the
Scythian's
sword,
or
somehow
go
through
the
the
scaled
armor
of
his
opponent.
Sure
enough,
the
Broadsword
managed
to
hit
the
Scythian's
sword
out
of
his
hand.
A
secondary
attack
ending
up
in
his
opponent's
side.
The
Scythian
went
down
to
his
knees,
grasping
the
fresh
wound.
The
Knight,
seeing
an
opportunity
to
end
the
fight
with
a
single
blow,
gripped
his
Broadsword
tightly
in
both
hands,
and
raised
it
high
above
his
head.
Just
as
he
was
about
to
lower
his
sword,
the
Scythian
suddenly
tackled
the
Knight,
wailing
on
his
body
with
some
kind
of
axe.
With
a
punch
to
the
head,
the
Knight
sent
the
Scythian
flying.
The
Knight
got
back
up
to
feet,
and
saw
the
Scythian
still
standing
with
his
axe,
but
he
noticed
that
his
opponent
wasn't
wearing
his
helmet.
He
went
back
to
his
horse
to
get
the
one
weapon
that
would
finally
end
this:
his
Morningstar.
He
made
it
back
to
his
horse
in
time
to
grab
the
weapon,
just
as
the
Scythian
started
coming
after
him.
They
started
fighting
again,
when
the
Knight
managed
to
swing
the
Morningstar,
and
hit
the
axe
out
of
the
Scythian's
hand.
The
Scythian
watched
his
axe
fly
away,
then
felt
cold
steel
landing
on
his
head.

Ending Assessment: The
Knight's
armored,
coupled
with
his
steel
weapons,
demolished
the
rough
style
of
fighting
of
the
Scythian
Warrior.
Strongest
Weapon:
With
an
impressive
300
kills,
the
Broadsword
is
the
strongest
weapon
of
this
fight.
Weakest
Weapon:
With
an
embarrassing
5
kills,
the
Scythian
Axe
takes
the
weakest
weapon
spot.
That seems kind of unfair there. I mean, the Scythian don't even have steel weapons.
