Hezbollah confirmed it, he’s really dead.

Yes, it was upgrade of khopesh.

Well i’m not one of them.

Yeah that’s literally 2 clicks from the basest of searches:

(Hokien, Hakka, Matsu and Wuqiu are some of very many southern languages of Chinese, and Formosan is the Austronesian group of languages spoken by indingenous population)

Because they are sucked to the same boot.

It was probably inspired by Egyptian khopesh since it was used in Ethiopia even before the kingdom of Axum. Thing is, the blade is sharp on both sides. So you could either use its inner side as big sickle to reach around enemy shield and try for the weak spots like neck, face or armpits, or if the enemy didn’t had a shield you could turn it to outer side and in this case it was similar to Persian shamshir in being excellent weapon against unarmored opponents.

Two more interesting thing about it was 1: the designs varies greatly, most were shorter and wider, the curvature also varied; and 2: it apparently worked quite well considering it has been in use for possibly over 2500 years and some Ethiopian emperors even organised special elite units wielding it.

It do looks longer than it is because of proportions. It’s very thin and the handle is pretty short compared to European blades because the blade is also very light so it don’t need much counterweight.

Blade is around 1 meter long.

Sword but very curved and yet not very famous (Ethiopian shotel)

While it would be good news, from the tone and source i call bullshit. It sounds just like every other “orc horde incoming” propaganda i ever read and especially in the mouths of isn’treali media it also sounds like preemptive justification of incoming massacres.

Moderate wing of fascism is bored with being moderate.

I mean, it’s the WotC. They do want to turn your normal rpg game into a collectible where you need to buy into new edition or “edition” every three months because this is exactly what worked for the little colour cardboard pieces which made them rich and be able to encroach over other hobbies.

At least be glad they didn’t yet tried to do expansion boosters for rpg where you buy 20 kg pack of books for ungodly money and try to hit that rare Sword Coast sourcebook but all you get is the 13 copies of Monster Manual.

Just watch out to not get into Falun Gong or something similar.

You’re correct. It would cause some disruption and a lot of joy, but system would continue. It need to be overthrown entirely and new one built. That is, proletarian revolution is needed.

Unironically yes, those are less likely to siphon your data to US letters agencies, and those are the ones you should be worried about, not China.
