Your Nation's Elite Guard

[Imeriata]

That shields needs a rawhide covering, linen wood that is uncovered with exposed cheese glue lines is extremely weak.

And cheep, which is quite enough as shields break sooner or later in a shieldwall regardless which is why most men carried quite a few shields with them so they could simply throw away the broken shield after battle.

[Chrilevolika]

Well you were acting kinda foolish saying that your weapons would get through, If memory serves right, Kevlar is stronger than steel or at least Iron, that is something a Katana cannot get through.

And I said no amount of Kevlar is going to do any good if the wearer is decapitated. You need your neck, no matter what armor you're wearing, and it must be free to rotate... and thus vulnerable to a blade.

Oh Please, Katanas cannot have the power that this bad boy has.

However in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, normal blades are able to match lightsabers. Says Trask Ulgo in the Endar Spire intro.

OOC: There are metals in the Star Wars universe that are strong enough to deflect them and one can even short circuit one.

True, unless the enemy sees you coming, which he will, Motion Trackers are very common for people with PMT and FT tech.

While you are making that wide swing to decapitate someone the enemy can either empty a magazine on you, or guy you with a bayonet.

I think it was a "special cortosis tissue" Trask Ulgo mentioned. I remember because I specifically asked "What if they have lightsabers?" before entering the Endar Spire bridge, and that was the answer I got. And Trask Ulgo went to a hell of a fight with Darth Bandon (Malak's apprentice) buying me time to escape. He lost in the end, but he was avenged - with a normal blade.

They were hardly "normal" blades, considering all the repulsor vibro whatever built into them and fancy metals. A truly ordinary sword forged from ordinary metal and not decked out with fancy technology would be sliced in half rather quickly by a lightsaber.

Although, apparently wooden sticks could hold up against lightsabers in that game, so I would call it more a flaw in game mechanic than a limitation of canonical technology

Which is why Sam should use more guns.

P.S: In universe, with Germoria's permission, IC wise we are the first nation to develop the concept of a lightsaber, considering we share the same universe.

Watch Sengoku Basara. (One of the basis for my nation).

You see my point. Kenshin Uesugi sliced Nôhime's barreled machinegun as if it were an onion. So don't come tell me that the Sanada Brave Ten are powerless against guns.

Yeah, but we don't use guns, just one touch.

[Samuraikoku]

Ah. You're like Mitsuhide Akechi. (He wields dual scythes as if he was a reaper. But I'm sure you're cooler.)

[The 4th Realm]

We simply keep life and death in check, we think a Reaper got into a mortal body called a Νεργο Θανάσιμο (Necro Body: Reaper Mortal) and licensed some cartoon a bit based on us, instead of demons however they are killing these things called Hallows, and they look human, we have no idea what makes it seem popular, heck death beings are dieing, my lord are Mortals strange when it comes to making things.

Bleach? I haven't seen it yet. I've been watching Sengoku Basara and Wangan Midnight (Street racing).

[The 4th Realm]

Yes, thats the name, Mortals and their cartoons, here we have a thing called sports, it is the only thing non reapers really get to do in entertainment, however senior souls (100 years in the 4th Realm) will grant you the equal opportunities of entertainment as a reaper.

[Naurobia]

We only have the Homeland Security Task Force which is a part of the National Police which is in turn under the direction of the Ministry of Justice and Internal Security. Their official job was to provide protection for our politicians, high ranking public figures, and diplomats. In recent years however with the threat of terrorism on the rise their capabilities have been expanded to conduct counter-terrorism operations.

Hand-picked elite kemonomimi from the Guarda Nacionale. Armed with lightning-ball launchers in the shells of the CETME Model C battle rifles, though they usually have a choice between this and a number of other energy weapons.

So Oda Nobunaga is a mustache twirling villian? Regardless, guns still beat swords.

Tell that to Mitsurugi from Soul Calibur.

Yeah, since a game with a guy who has electric shooting arms is a paragon of realism.

It is pretty unfair to use the .50 BMG, a machinegun designed to face light vehicles, against a sword.

Regardless the katana still managed to survive numerous bullets, which struck the same location.

The Imperial Serviss Special Operations Regiment (ISSOR)
