SCADians for the win! Also, might DOES make right. Dumbshit on the left an obvious noob; no skill, no strategy, total twit. This is part of the reason I bailed out- too many wanna-be nitwits diluting the serious students and competent players. Early on, it was fun with real scholarship. Smart people, clever personas, great pageantry. Then it declined.
Not SCAdians. Live steel fighters. They use blunt-edged metal blades and no thrusting unless the point is very blunted. And SCAdians don't do shield contact to the body, only to other shields or weapons.
The guy who gets knocked down looks like he's very tired even before he falls. Holding his shield to the outside and low, whole body stance is exhaustion. What he should have done is stood up, shield forward, sword arm up and sword forward. Instead, his stance was just asking to get his ass knocked down.
And I thought the push of shields was a _mass_ infantry tactic.
I think Beans is right. The guy is too tired to defend himself. His opponent could have pushed his sword over the shield for a bout-winning hit, but used the bluntest object he had instead.
#4. I am sure she is taken. #6. Great view. Flying from Philippines to Diego Garcia, the plane was up mid 40K feet. We were allowed to sit up with the pilots for a bit.
#7) Ah, the OG PC Broderbund "Prince of Persia". If you had a SoundBlaster16 and a 640x480 VGA card, the animation, music, and sound effects were way ahead of their time. I can still hear that intro music. Prince of Persia, Castle Wolfenstein, and Commander Keen were the last video games I ever played.
#1) I was in charge weekly with this by a location surrounded by houses in a city. Homes that were built around the quarry when it was first started. Always waiting for that phone to ring. Fingers crossed on blast day. Weirdest time was when I was in a meeting in South Carolina, felt something while sitting down. Got a call from my office in North Carolina asking if we blasted because we normally call homes first. Found out they had a earthquake in Virginia.
9 NONE SHALL PASS !!!

The reason that lump on the shield is called the boss.

Delete#6 - At first I thought that was the bow of a boat!

ReplyDelete#7 ... I recognized every detail on that clip like it was yesterday. And now I have to lay down after realizing that it was over 30 years ago.
ReplyDeleteAlmost 36 years ago. But don't worry, the geezers around here make us feel young. ;)
DeleteWas that Treasure Hunt?
DeleteI had a IIGS and my favorite command was "BRUN BURGERTIME" although Leisure Suit Larry was pretty fun too...

ReplyDeleteI spent way too much time playing Prince of Persia, many years ago. Great game.
Delete#1 Invite all demcrats over for a game of twister.
ReplyDelete4} Instead of wasting her time doing that I much prefer she get in the kitchen and bake me a pie!

ReplyDelete#7. Meh. Show me some punch cards. Show them being dropped and scattering across the floor. The horror!
ReplyDeleteI don't go back that far; 1/2-inch reel-to-reel mag tape. Ferrite core memories. In an airplane...
DeleteAnd what's the deal with #5? Is he to lazy to make two trips?
I had punch cards for scrap paper as a kid.
Delete#8 Hey that's a moose!
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what the twat was trying to do.
