Fuck you, you must have a lot of land and space age shit to be able to run a maintain such a setup. Pics?Pls delete exif data before posting

what about a facemask ? I've got a shitty one from Halloween i could scrible on

I'm sure that will work but like it was exhaustively said last thread, gas masks are memes for another other than CS/tear gas.

That archery video needs to die. I'm not going to go into a full point-by-point rebuttal because others have done that better than I could but I will address a few points.

This guy is doing trick shots in controlled settings, and using partial draws with a low-powered bow. It does not represent techniques used by war archers. They usually had bows that started at 60 lb draw weight and went up from there to well over 100 lbs.

Ancient art isn't the most reliable source of information, especially art depicting battles. This was often commissioned after the fact, produced by people who weren't present or familiar with tactics and equipment, and had more to do with glorifying the event than conveying an accurate portrayal of the battle. Few ancient artwork depicting battles accurately depict the soldiers as they would have appeared or the kit they would have carried with them (no water bottles, bed rolls, back packs, sometimes even clothing was omitted).

The final point I wanted to bring up was the idea that archers would pick up and use enemy arrows. This did not happen because war arrows used special warheads (see where the modern term comes from?) that were only loosely fixed to thicker, heavier shafts. These were stuck on with wax or string in such a way that if the arrow missed the target and landed in the dirt, pulling on the arrow would separate the two pieces, leaving the head in the ground. While it would have been possible to shoot the headless arrow it would likely have experienced stability and accuracy problems either due to the lack of a head or to being damaged by it's first flight, and it would have done little or no damage to an enemy without the head. Getting hit with a twig hurts but it's seldom fatal.

Archery is a good skill, especially in a survival setting, but trick shots do not put dinner on the table or save you from an unwelcome conjugal visit. Learn real, practical archery.

Its more about considering archery in cucked countries than telling anons that with a little practice they can become legolas. I remember talking about it with a brit last thread and I wanted to remind those in stupid countries that guns, while newer tech, can be substituted with a limited, but still very lethal, weapon that doesn't need licensure.

Except that it is extremely unlikely for many artists in different places at different times to depict archery in the same way. Not to mention that since archery was much more common back then, they might have seen it first hand, for example with a hunter. In addition, depending on the country, the artist may indeed have military experience, like in Ancient Greece or the Roman Republic where the armies were made up of the citizenry.
Ancient artwork doesn't depict soldiers with kit because they didn't carry their kit. Their equipment was stored in their camp and on march was carried by a slave/attendant or carried in the baggage train.

The idea that archers would pick up and use enemy arrows is probably bullshit though. Where did you read about these specialty heads? How common were these and when were they in use? I wouldn't doubt that something like this was done, since a similar idea was used by the Romans in the pilum, but I'm more curious who actually came up with this idea.

the whole point of kratky method is that, that it doesnt need energy to run.
and sadly i am on holidaysso no pics

where is that Zig Forums map and how do I add myself to it?
