bastard swords are considered "hand and a half", meaning they can be used one or two handed. The other posts pretty well cover the rest.
The sword definitions obviously overlap since people tended to tweak with the attributes over time.

Actually, a bastard sword and the longsword are the same thing.
Quote:
The famous two handed variation of the broad sword would be the claymore, used by the Scottish. The English were the ones who used the one-handed version. The longsword on the other hand were used primarily but dismounted knights, due to its versatility. However, they were soon designed with thinner cross-sections with longer tips for thrusting in order to penetrate plate mail. |

Assuming this IRC, try talking to that mod[or another one you know] in a query to better explain what happened, having a copy of the log would help probably, though I am not sure this is the area you should be asking this .

Though once again, this might be the wrong area to ask.

Or maybe some Greek name, like Penthesilea. |

That sounds like a pharmaceutical product Leo
You could go with pseudo-real/mythological characters, and just use "real" warrior women: Calamity Jane, Belle Starr, Pearl Hart, Margaret of Anjou, Catherine of Aragon, Andraste, Andromeda, Morrígan, Badb, Macha, Jeanne Hachette, Athena, Tomoe Gozen, etc.

I have a question. I am looking for the name of this typical style building.
I tried looking for urban houses but they are way too modern, I am looking for what I have linked below though it is from long ago. How the apartments are called in large cities that look like this (or what this side of town is called). |
