ดาวน์โหลด "The Best Weapon for Fantasy Halflings (No, Not Spears)"

This is for those of you who enjoy some (modest) measure of realism in your fantasy scenarios, be it fictional writing, tabletop RPGs or video games. Which historical arms and armor would make the most practical sense for a short, agile character who is not as stout and tanky as a dwarven warrior? Here is my perspective on that, informed by experience with HEMA (historical European martial arts). Applies to halflings, hobbits, gnomes, and similar species. Hope you enjoy the atmospheric background... that took unreasonably long to render. :) Check out Gamer Supps through my affiliate link: https://gamersupps.gg/Skall My taste test: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Wk3oPdfV70 Previous videos about the best weapons for a dwarf: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seih9n2MuYc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQdR3MHXNI0 The swords shown here: Ewart Park bronze sword by Neil Burridge https://www.bronze-age-craft.com/swords_for_sale.htm 14th century medieval knight's rondel dagger by Tod Cutler https://www.kultofathena.com/product/tod-cutler-14th-century-medieval-english-knights-rondel-dagger/ - Affiliate link (AF) Qama / kindjal by Devil's Edge https://www.kultofathena.com/product/devils-edge-qama-kindjal-high-carbon-steel-version/ (AF) Munich Town Guard sword by LK Chen https://www.kultofathena.com/product/lk-chen-munich-town-guard-sword (AF) Tizona - 17th century Spanish cup-hilt rapier by LK Chen https://www.kultofathena.com/product/lk-chen-tizona-17th-century-spanish-cup-hilt-rapier (AF) *** Sources / credits *** https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Halfling_Thief.png https://sleeplessinstarsong.fandom.com/wiki/Halflings https://www.dndbeyond.com/races/14-halfling#Subrace https://www.dndbeyond.com/races/18-gnome https://pixabay.com/illustrations/orc-ogre-fantasy-creature-5636526/ https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Three_Archers_and_a_Figure_with_a_Spear_MET_DP805693.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Yahua_Blowgun_Amazon_Iquitos_Peru.jpg Music: "Caketown" by Matthew Pablo https://opengameart.org/content/caketown-cuteplayful Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license (CC BY 3.0) "RPG Exploration Level 1" by Hitctrl https://opengameart.org/content/rpgexplorationlevel1 CC BY 3.0 "Highland Storm" by The Slanted Room Records https://theslantedroom.github.io/steve.yee/ Used with artist's permission *** Merch *** https://www.bonfire.com/store/skallswag/ If you want to join Bonfire to start selling your own merch: https://www.bonfire.com/welcome/07bb14169c804/ *** Support the channel *** Help fund future videos, get bonus content and access to an exclusive Discord server: https://www.patreon.com/skallagrim https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3WIohkLkH4GFoMrrWVZZFA/join Other ways to support the channel by shopping through affiliate links: Kult of Athena, my favorite online store for reproductions of historical arms and armor, fantasy swords, etc: https://www.kultofathena.com/ Where to get HEMA gear and practice swords: http://www.woodenswords.com/?Click=1799 Want to treat your face fluff?
