Don't you mean phat? [IMG]http://www.fightingarts.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif[/IMG]

I'd say Sniper or Beam Rifle in the larger maps, or the Energy Sword closer in so I can do that little "zippy thing" and kill them in one hit. Unless they have an overshield, of course.

whitedragon_48: Have you ever done any training with Mr. Mike Pick? (Apologies, I don't remember his correct title at the moment.) I took a knife-fighting seminar with him at last years' Long Beach Internationals, and learned a lot. If you ever have the opportunity, please take it to meet this gentleman, I think you would enjoy it.

My favorite weapons? To watch, my Sifu's katana and wakasashi. To perform myself, Ma Do or Horse Knife. For practicality; a good staff, or similar substitute.

Wakasashi... I don't know why, i just like it more than any martial weapon i've ever used. A close second is a Clamore. You hold up whatever weapon you want and chances are i can smash through it with a Clamore. By saying this i'm not saying that its a better weapon than others i'm just saying its big, heavy and very deadly if you know what your doing.

Salutations!

No, unfortunately, I could not go to Long Beach last year because of work. I haven't had the pleasure to study with Mr. Pick. I did (and do) study under Prof. Michael Cruz, a direct student of Master Larry Tatum.

whitedragon_48,

Perhaps you will get to go to Long Beach this year, and we will meet!

I did take a seminar with Mr. Tatum at last years' Internationals (just after Mr. Pick's seminar, actually) and found it very helpful. We were just working on techniques that different people were having trouble with, and when Mr. Tatum knew that "Circling Destruction" was a weak one for me, he called me to the front of the group and gave me about 5 minutes of one-on-one help. I felt very honored.

Salutation and Respects,

I prefer a stick of any length - arnis stick, jo or bo and/or a whip.

I'm quite handy with all of them. [IMG]http://www.fightingarts.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif[/IMG]

Also I can carry any of these around without being arrested. Handguns are illegal here and you can't go carrying any sorts of guns or knives around in public.
