Not much of a guild but a place for knight who prefer the use of two handed weapons to talk , exchange ideas , tactics , training methods and so on , since two handed weapons are quite atypical from what I've seen in the duel list and only a handful of knights use them , most knights preferring the spear and shield combo .

I've just recently bought my nation's weapon , the Spanish Greatsword and at the moment I want to get my skill up to a decent level . My intention was to use the greatsword in combination with light armor ( a total of 12 PP ) so that I can also use a ranged weapon as well .

I am aware that the use of a twohanded weapon will not allow me to use a horse in battle but I'm willing to take this risk .

I'm eagerly waiting for other two handed weapon users to share their opinion.

I use the Spanish Great Sword.
Though it does not fit into the time of game "1041"
it is a good choice in terms of efficiency.

I really did not expect a reply so quickly .

Indeed you are right great swords were mostly used from approximately 1300 till the Renaissance Period .

What is your preference in armor Myrkira ? Do you use light amor or did you went for heavy ?

I use 2hand weapons from long time.
now i have spanish g sword - and imo its best sword in game. But only well skilled >90%

When you use 2hand weapons IMO, you should have good armour, u dont have shield so your defence is lower ;x
Technique and strength are equally important.

I agree with you Jata; heavy armor could very well make up for the lack of a shield but light armor in combination with a high technique and decent strength level would also be good style of play . The light armor offering you a high avoid value thus you can avoid most attacks .

I used the two handed sword with no armour at all for a long
time, now I upgrade to plate armour.
You can win most duels without any armour but in battle it is
too dangerous to get hit by arrows having no shield and no armour.

You make a good point . Going into battle with light armor for the sake of using ranged weapons is a risk . Non the less I will try it just to put this to the test . After all once my fiefdom is complete I imagine I'll have little use for the money I make so I'll most likely invest in heavy armor . Until then though, I'll play light .

How is the Spanish Great sword in battle ? Do you get many hits with you current skill and heavy armor ?

I was better without armor but i have to raise the armor skill first
to compare that.
Don't expect to score many hits but you may inflict about 15 points damage with each.
