: And just about EVERY fantasy novel out there has a
: magical sword! (Heck, that probably began with King
: Arthur and Excalibur.)
Ok so this is off topic, but what really bugs me is what people think King Arthur was like. Most think it's ll knights on horseback wearing shining armour, much akin to the knights of the 13th Century. Whereas Arthur was an anglo-saxon Myth, so was more likely to fight in rusting chainmail, on foot, up to his knees in mud.
Well that's enough of me for now. I'm off to bother all those folk in the Marathon forums...
