[QUOTE="ExploderWizard, post: 6858604, member: 66434"] I was swinging at stationary targets while holding a huge round shield over 48" in diameter in my left hand. I am a big guy and hit with decent power. Recovery time- fhuggetaboutit! :lol: Getting that thing set again for another swing wasn't quick. Even a moderately fast fighter with a normal broad sword would have had a chance to whoop on me 3 or 4 times before I was ready to swing again. It LOOKS intimidating as heck standing there wielding a picnic table on your arm and a six foot sword in the other- until you actually throw a blow. Then you see how a more reasonably armed fighter would send you to the afterlife before you got a second swing. :D [/QUOTE]
