I'm not entirely sure but I think has to do with them being pregnant

 

[mortal fist]

There's no real need for them for now, but here's a few select console variables for those too impatient to build up in other ways:

#MC
mcBaseDamage = XX #Subdue and defensive attacks deal half damage, aggressive attacks deal double damage
mc_hp = XX
mc_max_hp = XX

#Resources (capped at 10 on Day 0, + 20 the day after claiming Gaunteinguk, + 20 the day after claiming Oryeonguk)
troops = XX
gold = XX

#Territories
Gaunteinguk.obedience = XX
Gaunteinguk.morale = XX
Gaunteinguk.garrisonTroops = XX
Oryeonguk.obedience = XX
Oryeonguk.morale = XX
Oryeonguk.garrisonTroops = XX

Replace XX with the value you want. You break it, you bought it: If you're not absolutely sure what you're doing, save before changing anything.

OMG, now that I know that people can read my pathetic code I should remember to keep it more tidy and neat...

use a katana...

One cool (IMHO) aspect of Karder is his blade. Out of all the fancy and ornate swords available to him, he prefers a simple cavalry sword, same as used by his soldiers. He doesn't need magical shiny sticks to kick anyone's ass.

Well, katana was everywhere (still is) in feudal Japan, so it's not that magical XD. It's just the Japanese that hyped it up so much that it feels otherworldly. The Chinese and the Turks have similar swords. In fact the Turks used it as a cavalry weapon. So it's pretty common. Though some techniques are unique to Japan and look impractical, like fighting with the scabbard or drawing the sword at the last moment, but that's actually because feudal Japan was full of assassinations in tight spaces. Of course, nobody uses that in an open battle, but it kinda shows the power difference when one side is going all out in a fight and the other side doesn't even need to draw the sword .

Just checking in, any incest stuff yet?

Nope. Probably won't be for some time, he has a whole continent to conquer before he even gets close to his mom and sisters.

Nothing for Karder himself, but there is some sis/sis stuff going on in the Elfkind story arc.

Nope. Probably won't be for some time, he has a whole continent to conquer before he even gets close to his mom and sisters.

I agree on the mom/sis part, but I think there is totally potential for Karder to meet one of his oldest daughters some time soon

A Katana is no sword though... since it only has a single sharp edge it's by definition a VERY sharp knive, it's speciality is it's blunt and hardened backside which can be used to incaptivate oponents without hurting or killing them, aswell as to parry blows.

These are normally Anime tropes in reality it was considered a sacrilec to use the scapbard and was only used by ruffians and barbarians

I think a sword can be either one-edged or two-edged. About the blunt backside, I'm not sure why, but curved swords just tend to be one-edged while straight ones tend to be two-edged. But I don't think you would really leave a blunt side just to incapacitate your opponent.

Edit: the Chinese do have a somewhat practical technique of pushing the backside to pivot the sword towards the opponent when the two swords are met I think.

Well, indeed I haven't seen any Iaido or Kendo techniques using the scabbard, but I remember reading from somewhere that they sometimes fought with the scabbard without drawing the sword because there wasn't even enough time to draw the sword. So kinda like how Vergil fights but he's obviously doing it on purpose, and not like how Ikkaku in Bleach with the scabbard being a secondary weapon. Then again, it's just what I read.

The definition of a sword is a blade with 2 sharp sides, the definition of a knive is a blade with a single sharp side.
'As far as I recall the Scimiliar has 2 sharp sides.
That's the special part about the Japanese the Katana isn't really meant to kill the enemy.

I'd call it a blade weapon meant for fencing and disarming your oponent

I'd really like to know where you're getting these definitions. I have never heard a sword defined as two-bladed only.

 

[gregers]

I'm not going to get dragged into this discussion, but the reason you can describe something as a 'double-edged sword' is that not all swords have two sharpened edges.

How so? Karder is on the Eastern Sister now, but before his imprisonment I don't think any of the lore mentioned him travelling outside the Western Sister, so any of his spawn he might encounter would be infants/toddlers. Karder may be a lot of things, but I don't think baby-diddler is one of them.

Admittedly from middle age fairs and a troupe that made a show of fighting with the standard weapons of that time.
Though there are similiar description found in other medias aswell.

I think we could just be a little more relaxed on the definition. I mean whether something is technically a sword or not isn't really important, because we already know exactly what it is. It is a katana.If you had to describe it to someone who has never seen a katana before, then probably it is more important to be precise on its description so that he could imagine what it looks like.

Definitions are kinda all over the place especially when a word has existed for so long that nobody could ask the first user of the word what he meant by that. I mean if you coined a word, or invented something, then your definition should be the only one. Otherwise, for a word like sword, you have people saying it must be defined this way or that way, but no one really has more authority on its definition than the others. You could check a dictionary, but what if another dictionary says differently?

Yeah, we're definitely talking conception dates predating the imprisonment here! We'd just need the corresponding mother to have visited the Western Sister. Maybe as part of a delegation from one of the eastern courts to the Khan? Or a merchant?
