Hi all,
One of the classic architypes in fantasy fiction is the swordsman who fights using a longsword and no shield. How can you go about recreating this using D&D? It seems to me that this is going to be suboptimal whatever you do and that there are absolutely no advantages whatsoever compared to a two-handed weapon, using a shield or two weapon fighting. Is this correct?
