How did horn double it... I forgot -----Original Message----- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Clement Chou Sent: 14 December 2010 10:24 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] mysteries of the sith
Well, we have a lightsaber and a lightwhip... could we call this a lightflail? lol. Because to my knowledge, there aren't any true weapons like that... two examples come to mind. The whip chain, which was used by shaolin monks way back, and the ara... which was a flexible sword developed by the rajputs. Right. A metre seems to be the standard for lengths... as for doubling, the only one I've sceen able to do that is Coran Horn. Is there anyone else who can double thelength of their blade?
