Rakosi posted:Hi guys im im this thread now too. In the 18th and 19th century british and thereby also american militaries, halberds were traditional arms for sergeants, both as a symbol of rank but also for actual use, such as when part of a color guard defending the regimental standard  I think recently the army brought them back as some sort of retro throwbackt hing:

Lol at the tiny axe blade on that halberd. Who's he gonna chop with that? You can tell that Halberd wasn't designed by the American military because if it was it would be 10ft long and have such a large axe and spike a fully grown man would struggle to carry it and it would cost a million dollars. That said, if guns were banned gun companies could make "tactical halberds". Telescopic poles, carbon fibre poles, carbon fibre blades (so it doesn't set off metal detectors), custom made rubberised grips, diamond cut blades, electrified spikes so you can speak someone and tazer them at the same time. Camo patterns of all sorts. The options are endless, they would probably make more money than they do selling guns.

I've got a baseball bat but I'm going to upgrade to a proper mace once I figure out how to find one on google and not bring up a bunch of pepper spray.

if you hammer a bunch of nails into a bat, that turns it into a powerful mace

Not true, the halberd is the weapon of a lesser, a man-at-arms. I'll fight by tossing a sack of gold at some peon daintily while wearing a faggy ruffled blouse.

I feel like that may have also been a function of the environment, a trench seems like a really awkward place to use what is effectively a long and poorly balanced spear that you need to thrust vs. a shovel/truncheon/club/axe

ScratchAndSniff posted:More like 2%. It's not rape if they enjoyed it. Maybe I'm just stupid here but there's 200,000 enlisted and 20,000 have filed rape complaints which were internally suppressed. So that would be 10%. Anyways they are probably having a hoot watching that guy chop wood with his fake halberd. 1 in 10 chance he'll be raped.
