Weapons & Warriors

I have opened this page to comments so if you have any requests on warrior cultures or weapons in general you'd like to see in the future, let me know, or say whatever is on your mind. I would even love to see what you think about the series, who doesn't love flattery? As a professional I accept constructive criticism as well. If I have posted something inaccurately, please feel free to correct me and give me a reference so that I can research and update.


The most recent post is about the Roman gladiator known as the Scissor, with a weapon that went by the same name.

  5. Hello Javier. I apologize for the super late response. I am planning to pick up blogging but I'll be doing something different this time. Something more geared towards the genre I'm still writing in, which is fantasy.
