While a bunch of those swords that were just posted were bearing swords never intended for anything more strenuous than a parade, giant fucking swords existed. We know how they were used, and we know that they were used.

They're a hell of a lot different from a Buster Sword, though. These things are around six feet long, but they only weigh at maximum around seven pounds. Most were lighter.

From pommel to blade tip it's 180cm.
The hilt is approx 1/5 of the total sword length making the blade approx 144cm including crossguard.
The blade is about 25-30cm wide and approx 2cm deep.
The triangle cutout at the top looks to be a 45 degree angle.

Iron is 7.15 g to cm3. If someone wants to have a go at working out the Buster Sword's weight.

Pull your head out of the sand man. Claymores started at three feet and grew out to six and a half. They were used with the philosophy of "the best defense is a good offense". With a two handed grip, a Scotsman could swing a powerful attack from outside a Englishman's melee reach, crush through a defender's shield, cleave it in half, break a defending sword... A massive, fast moving, sharp chunk of Steel with good leverage. Why wouldn't it be used?

Even a fucking fiddy-cal is reasonably sized, and perfectly proportionate to the round it fires.

So over ten times the weight of the largest greatswords to see actual use. Yeah, sounds about right.
>>
>>44105584
"The buster slab" just didn't quite have the same ring to it...
>>
>>44105696
when you say 3 feet claymore do you mean the basket hilted variety wich is like a backsword or broadsword and not a greatsword?

Two handed claymores are if if you look at other greatswords rather short, esecpecially in the blade and you do not hack through other peoples swords and there is very very little documentation on how it was used.

Montante and Espadone though have surviving books on how to use thwem as well as the germans styles, could be mentioned that the Montatne is used as a polearm rather than a sword most of the timwe
>>
>>44105764
So? That doesn't mean an oversized sniper rifle couldn't exist in a game, it'd just be bigger than the biggest real-world ones.

Alternately, they could have just meant "oversized in relation to the character".
>>
I'd forgive the buster sword if the handle wasn't so fucking thin. Yeah yeah, applying real world physics to a vidyagame and all that, but it'd snap like a twig.

Same problem I have with Guts' Dragonslayer, but at least they take the piss out that fact in-universe and the artstyle does wonders to add "heft" to his swings. Makes it seem proper heavy and still a bit of a chore for Guts to wield many times.

In FF7 Cloud fucking twirls that shit between 2 fingers as a victory pose.

Honestly the Buster Sword is really more of a showpiece than a proper sword, according to the Compilation. Zack's mentor's father had it given to him as a present when he went to join SOLDIER.

He usually just kept on his back, and used the standard issue sword. Though about the handle, IIRC, he used that to block a hit from Sephiroth during a training session, so it's pretty sturdy.

When Zack got it, he only used the blunt edge, but then when Cloud got it, he started swinging it around like it's a goddamn baton.
>>
>>44105892
It's not the sturdiness of the handle, it's the joint isn't it? Even if it's made out of strong material, it's simply too thin to be able to support the weight and sheer physics of the blade.

Unless the handle is made out of a much denser and stronger material than the blade, enough that the handle is worth the blade's amount of weight or more for leverage.
>>
>>44105924
Honestly, I'd assume that's the case. The Buster Sword probably isn't made of a particularly dense or strong material.
>>
>>44105935
I think according to official sources the entire thing, blade and handle et all, is made of Iron like another Anon posted above.

I can actually see a way he'd reason it. Take for example Game of Thrones. Tyrion's always gotten himself out of trouble with his words. Sure, he can manipulate, negotiate and coerce but he's somewhat shite at actual battle. There have been several moments where he'd be paste if it wasn't for his quick thinking.
Now imagine a setting of that. So many "spineless" bureaucrats always relying on words and coin. Wouldn't it be cathartic to just see some dude with a fucking greataxe go to town on people like that sometimes? Not giving a shit about gold or lands or titles or even consequences?

I can see why he MAY do that.

I wish he reasoned it like that atleast, most of the time his argument has been that he doesnt want to make a "wimpy" character so he gives combat skills/stats preference over more social skills and stats.

I see what you mean, but that's why you don't have it to such an extreme in the setting. Keep the no-fucks-given characters to a select few.

One one hand you have King's Landing, on the other hand you have the Dothraki. Both are terrible on their own but taking the good and some of the bad from each creates a nicer atmosphere. A place and time for diplomacy, but it's never a guarantee. And who knows, that politician may be quite capable in battle himself.

The ability to grip the handle is not the problem - the problem is swinging the sword. He simply does not have enough weight and friction to overcome the force of the sword.

Reminds me of someone I used to play with. I was excited about a character being mechanically possible, and possibly mechanically quite good. He slaps me down with "blahblah roleplaying" while he's a minmaxing asshole who cries the moment he eats a single point of damage and gets salty when he isn't the single most OP character in the party.

I used the same pic, but it had a numeral filename, it was after he ranted about being a katana with European hilt that I renamed the pic.

I showed him other pics and still gets mad, he refuses to believe weapons like that appeared in Europe without previous knowledge of Katanas. He literally thinks any curved sword that isn't an obvious scimitar is because medieval weebs and their love for Japan.

Large amounts of every media is shit, most of them mediocre and a some good ones with few great ones. Thing is between medias different things are consider to be good and generally aim to please the audience that consumes most of the said media. In movie's case it's easy and casual entertainment that doesn't deviate from the formula, better if it has established characters and/or common tropes. Western cartoons aim towards either absolute silliness or character based drama copying movies. Books aim for well written, "deep" characters, good atmosphere and attempts at creating something new from old tropes etc. All these because the biggest spenders for these medias want these things. And if you specifically like one media other medias will feel like they are shit because you judge them by the standards of other media. Anime generally aims for same thing as movies, except aimed more towards 10-17 year old boys that want nothing but tits, cute girls and idiotic main characters blowing up mountains against monster-of-week villains. Even then there's anime that is great by the standards of all medias, but people dismiss them because of majority of anime is geared towards another target audience. By that standard nobody would watch anything other than one movie/cartoon/ play a single game or read only one book because that's what they want from everything else and majority of those medias are not geared towards them/it has media that is not geared towards them.

Now i just hope this shit makes sense because can't be bothered to read through it and not post it.

But claymores are 5 feet long and my guy half-hands it a lot...
>>
>>44113472
I'm not even sure that's got enough of a curve to even call it a curved sword. You're not really getting much in the way of a benefit from the curve, it might as well be a single-edged straight sword.
>>
>>44115506
Yeah, no. When somebody says the words "like Cloud's", everybody knows what they mean, and it's not just that the sword is 6 feet long. Nobody has ever said the words "like Cloud's" and not been referring to a weapon with similar bulk to the 100+ pound monstrosity that he wields.
>>
>>44122429
He could just be using the Buster Sword as a comparison for length due to its infamy in pop culture.
>>
>>44122450
That is technically possible, but not even remotely likely. The length of the buster sword is not the primary feature remembered in pop culture, because the length alone is not unrealistic, it's the sheer mass of the damn thing.

I have Monkey Grip and Gigantic Weapon and the DM let me have them. Fucking deal with it. The sword is more like the Dragonslayer, though.

So that'd be, what. 11/13 STR requirement, about 110, maybe 120 Base Damage? Considered a Large weapon, so can hit 5 or so people on an area attack?

If you mean the tanky character, then it works because maybe they got lucky and threw it just right to distract them.
If you mean the Armored Fighting Vehicle, then no, that wouldn't work, as the thrown rock would 1, have nowhere NEAR enough damage to bypass the Damage Barrier on the tank, and 2, the tank isn't what needs to be stopped, the operator is.

Buster Sword when used with 2 hands.

WEIGHT = 80 lb

Slashing:
WBF =9069303.808
WB = 0.000577286
Damage = 97+1d97

Stabbing:
WBF =2873.59
WB =1.40682
Damage =253+1d253
Compare this with katana

Weight 3.3 lb
Slashing
WBF = 48
WB = 102
Damage = 6 + 1d3

Stabbing
WBF = 60
WB = 65
Damage = (22 + 1d22) / 10

If I made my math right, this is the stat for a realistic rpg called sword path glory, using formulas from a guy that reverse engineered the game
on this game:
skills goes from 0 to 20 to humans and arent linear
stats goes from 3 to 18 and also arent linear

Imagine a male naked human, with weapon skill = 4 (according to game average seargents have this)
size, dex, speed, strenght as 18

size = 78
weight = 238


This guy using ff7 sword
Slashing:
420109 seconds to attack
0.00079088182% chance to hit a target that is not parring
Damage = (97+1d97) * 4.4352

Stabbing:
133 seconds to attack
1.40682% chance to hit a target that is not parring
Damage = (253+1d253) * 4.4352


This guy using katana

WBF = 2.2 seconds to attack
WB = 139.74
Damage = (6 + 1d3) * 4.4352

Stabbing
WBF = 2.77 seconds to attack
WB = 89.05
Damage = ((22 + 1d22) / 10) * 4.4352
