Like i said, in english there is only a bit, the 4ed basic rules, an adventure, one broad description and 3 novels i believe.

I don't remember the names of the series, and besides that was when i still read english books translated (so probably changed title, they do that in germany...). But i think the two books about Huma would make a very nice movie. And it wouldn't make people think it was kinda meh if the following movies wouldn't be…

Lumen was even better than Trinity, although the bad guy was weaker.

Yeah, when i watched it, I wondered why a really entertaining show got cancelled like that. But now Constantine is coming, either no one will want to parallel it or an other network will bring back Dresden Files to do just that.

Quantity is not everything. Dragonlance, while amusing, doesn't hold a candle to LotR. And that's from someone who doesn't like LotR much.

Then i can recommend Hercules and Xena to you, LotS was heavily infuenced by them.

Unfortunate Blip? Weird choice of words for something that is almost usual...

So, it's not SciFi action, the SciFi part of the story is... exploration of a planet, but it's not a big part because there needs to be sentimental... stuff. Why are people exited? Don't get me wrong, Nolan has shown that he makes movies that are watchable, and sometimes really good, and this one will be at least…

On one hand i can understand the problems others have with the "slow part", but after i thought about it, it seemed a bit childish. After all, it is more about the characters i love (although Perrin sucked when searching for Faile, while Egwene was awesome while beeing Elaidas guest, the world stood on end!), it is…

Oh, good. I feared my post seemed too much like trolling (a problem for me, somehow my style just looks like it), but i see i shouldn't have worried regarding you.

Fundamental Fatalism is never atractive, in a discussion like this even more so...

The biggest reason to explore space is the planetary trap. Even if we lived in total harmony with earth, earths days are numbered. And as it stands, we don't live in harmony and probably can't, so we need to escape the planetary trap even more urgently and have self sustaining civilizations on several planets for the…

Looks alike, is used alike, is not the same, as my granny always said...

Like i wrote, little trained polearm fighter...

Sword to a hand and a half, bastard sword, long sword, all the same. Of course there are minor differences, but these are differences in culture, or different smiths. Just like the difference between a rapier and a ...scottish broad sword (i believe) are... one is from Scottland.

I don't know about competition, but Peter Koza opened his first school in 1984...

Yeah, that's because one is only sporting equipment, the other one is a real weapon.

Yeah, as soon as one tries fighting with a polearm, it's hard to imagine someone else but a very good swords man beating a little trained polearm fighter. That reach changes so much, also it's not hard to swing so hard that it is almost impossible to parry, without endangering oneself too much (again the reach,…

The notion that fighting styles with similiar weapons are totaly different is plain wrong. The main difference between japaneese and western fencing is that japan has bad steel in low quantities (which is why japaneese blacksmiths were even more celebrated than western ones), which means that they don't have as much…

You forgot to mention that we have almost original texts for the long sword from Lichtenauer, which only touch on other weapons. So there just has to be much more extrapolation for other weapons. And the grappling is way more important for shorter weapons i feel, which makes it more material to absorb. And the long…
