In the "Damn Elves" thread, the elves use bows, swords, and such. With the occasional RPG thrown in for fun.

Most people that use swords, probably use them like japanese officers in WWII, they are trained with it, but the entire military doesn't have them.
Me? Bayonets, and stormvermin(or higher) have swords(or some sharp object)

Well my swords are awesome everyone in the nation is trained to use them!Are gunman use bow an arrows to fight against weaker nations like the rebellions.
I doubt anyone who rps in modern tech+ use swords as their main weapons. But I know a several who use swords as close combat weapons, but still use guns as main weapons.

Every member of our military use swords. Specifically vibroswords capable of cutting through the thick powered armor we often use. Of course guns take prevelence, but swords are still extremely useful to our military.

Ganurath's trained infantry used bladed gauntlets for melee weapons, and militia from low-income areas tend to use either melee weapons or homemade ranged weapons, like a squirt gun loaded with flammable liquid and a lit candle taped to the nozzle.

I believe Macleod is the correct spelling but im not positive.

you realize that if a single spark traveled inside the gun that your entire hand would be an inferno, right?

My aristocracy still uses swords for combat of honour and our police use swords in major cities instead of guns.
We still use bayonets for our guns. Swords are issued to officers. They are largely ceremonial, however, some officers have been known to use them in combat.
As a melee weapon, the Panzian army finds the stock of the AK74 sufficient.
