Bastard Sword
Bastard Sword, although used by many europeans in
medieval times this sword was more of a
collecters sword and was less used for fighting
and more used for looking at, and would only be
used by great warriors or lords/kings. (Please

Swords are for people in the past centuries. Give me a rifle with a pointy stick on the end if I need a blade. Either a Long Lee or a SMLE with a nice long sword Bayonet. Barring that an FN-Fal with a shorter tube type bayonet.

They don't have any of the good stuff, like cavalry or infantry officer sabres.
I got the flamberge, which is certainly cool but odd-looking. =P
