http://www.thearma.org

its website that I frequently go onto as I am interested in the development of fighting systems and this has allsorts on that very topic. And a very informed article on both Katana vs Rapier and Samurai vs European knights

Knight vs Samurai (http://www.thearma.org/essays/knightvs.htm)

and

Rapier vs Katana (http://www.thearma.org/essays/katanavs.htm)

I'd really love for someone to read these articles(both are quite long but in great depth and are well balanced) and then have a discussion.

The ARMA was not in the Weapons links sticky thread but I posted a request to have it included. We do need a sticky Links thread in this forum too.

Interesting. I could have sworn I had poseted a link to it. Oh well.
I agree a sticky with WMA links would be a great idea. Or maybe its jsut that I like stickies with links.
