Overarm Vs. Underarm Spear and Shield Reply to Demomanchaos

Thrand and Eldgrim reply to Demonmanchaos and test the underarm long range attack like Christopher Matthew's supports against Thrand's idea of a throwing slide or gigging style overarm and underarm techniques. They do several test to see how much extra penetration it has and what angles can be achieved as well as reach on some very tough targets. So set back grab a mead or ale and watch this very informative video of how Spartans, Greek Hoplites and many ancient warriors such as the Vikings and Normans might have used the overarm spear ward to great effect and has been over looked by so many. They truly may have rediscovered what made spear and shield so formidable and revered for since the dawn of mankind.

A piece of armour pierced like our test showing the angle had to come from the overarm ward or spear grip.
