If you were an English Man at Arms fighting in England during the Wars of the Roses, what would your primary armament be for dismounted combat?

Garand13 Nov 2020 4:35 p.m. PST

Pollaxe.

Damon.

Dagger. I would hide in the back and stab the guys on the ground.

Very Welsh of you Saltflats!

Englishmen are used to being stabbed from behind while prone.

MajorB14 Nov 2020 3:12 a.m. PST

Yep, pollaxe.

Warspite114 Nov 2020 7:53 a.m. PST

Pollaxe,
Warhammer
Hand and a half (b***ard) sword

In that order.

I guess you could call that a "low blow" Vonbek?

If down on their lock then a bill, Halberd, voulge, glaive would suffice make up the back ranks.
