Gomenasai, my name is William-Sama.

I’m a 36 year old English Anjin (Navigator for you gaijins). I plot courses on my charts, and spend my days perfecting my map-reading and playing superior Nipponese games. (Hanafuda, Mahjong, Janken)

I train with my Katana every day, this superior weapon can cut clean through steel because it is folded over a thousand times, and is vastly superior to any other weapon on earth. I earned my scroll of sword mastery two years ago, and I have been getting better every day.

I speak Nipponese fluently, both Kanji and the Kyushu dialect, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about Nipponese history and their bushido code, which I follow 100%

When I get my Nipponese Red Seal, I am moving to Edo to attend a prestigious Academy to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become a vassal to the Shogun or a merchant!

I own several kimonos, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to Nippon, so I can fit in easier. I bow to my elders and seniors and speak Nipponese as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond.

Wish me luck in Nippon!

From 'Zoroastrian Saviour Imagery and its Influence on the New Testament'

>"The title Sosyant can be translated Redeemer or Saviour, and the form of the word shows that the work of the figure lies in the future. The title is used both in the plural and singular forms in the Hymns of Zoroaster [...] Nevertheless in the singular it definitely refers to the eschatological saviour who will be born of a virgin at the end of the world, but who will also be a son of Zoroaster. His task is to restore the world, which involves defeat of the demons, raising the dead, assembling men for judgement, and the administration of the same. All this means a return to the primeval state which existed before the assault of Ahriman"

Can a Knight/Warrior/Whatever wield a Two-handed sword while armed with a shield?

By shield I am not talking something ridiculously big like a Kite shield, but something smaller like a Heater shield. Would it provide any positive attributes from melee or projectile attacks?

yeah sure why not they where not that heavy.

Its also fucking stupid, technically you could also go into battle duel wielding halberds but you never see a knigger doing that.

'Greatswords' in general where a niche as fuck weapon, the drain on your stamina having a greatsword and a shield at once is not worth the questionable gain of doing so. Making a sword a bit larger and heavier doesn't magically let it go through armour, it would still remain pretty shit at dealing with armoured opponents like all swords.

Question /his/

How often have people rose up to those in power? I see a lot of individuals killing others and claiming god or shit knows, either that's a fear tactic or individuals being themselves. But not the other way of individuals acting out? Either way why did MLK JFK ETC get killed yet I see Trump, Koch, ETC walking around with millions having sub par living conditions even death faced daily. ?

I've been studying Rome for a few weeks now after doing close reading of ancient Greeks.

What exactly did Rome contribute to the world that was distinctly Roman? Much of Roman culture seems to be Greek handmedowns and generally less significant. Is there anything that Rome did better that copied from the Greeks? Or were the Romans less concerned with the work of great thinkers?

As much as retards say that the Caliphate regurgitated Greek and Persian culture, Rome was 100x worse, literally copying everything.

Barrow cites the implacable Roman spirit as their most fundamental achievement. I also recall reading of an example where a general, whilst besieging a salty Carthaginian city, decided to build a bigdick ramp up the mountain slopes and the walls, rather than starve them up. Scared them shitless so they surrendered. Not sure if that counts as a contribution though.

Cool shit like central heating? They tolerated jews, too. Sometimes. They liked them more than christfags, which in light of the centuries is rare.
