Greatsword (weapon)

An extremely large sword. One strike from this blade can cause a vast amount of damage, but the great weight it carries limits the amount of people who can actually wield it. Even if one manages to lift it, swinging it may prove impossible for the average person. For this reason, the great sword is said to be more commonly used to mow down enemies, rather than actually cutting them.

Etymology[edit | edit source]

[view · edit · purge]A sword is a blade weapon used primarily for cutting or thrusting. The precise definition of the term varies with the historical epoch or the geographical region under consideration. A sword in the most narrow sense consists of a straight blade with two edges and a hilt. However, in nearly every case, the term may also be used to refer to weapons with a single edge (backsword).
