It was proposed – TMP link – to add a Swords Board. Only 18 people voted to support it, so it will not be added. |

Personally I don't use the boards anyway… |

What is a swords board even going to cover? |

How about a sword and board…board 😁 |

So, then, discussion of swords should take place in Tools Of The Hobby? Wargaming Spouses? |

I assume that if there was such a board it would be filled with edgy messages but nobody would get the point. LT I am not sorry. |

Ah, a pity. I would have supported this, but didn't find out about it until it was canceled. How about a Medieval Swords and other Weapons Board? Swords, daggers, halberds, maces, morning stars, etc., etc.? |

But where would you discuss ancient swords? |

But where would you discuss ancient swords?
In Ancients discussion? Where weapons used in ancient times usually get discussed. Why do you need a special board? How about a whole bunch of special boards, one each for darts, javelins, spears, pikes, sarissae, kontos, xyston… Slings, atlatl, thrown stones… And separate boards for Gygaxian pole arms… Yeah. How a board for the Bohemian Ear Spoon? |

John, I was being facetious. I think the idea was silly, and leads to further unnecessary fragmentation of the boards. Your points (no pun intended) were brought up in the discussion phase of the poll. |

I believe the entire suggestion was facetious and only made to make a counterpoint to the kerfluffle over the guns board. |
