Chivalrous notions of battle confuse me

Feb 17, 2011 13:30

So, let me get this straight - if some upper-class warrior rides up to the enemy stronghold and challenges them, you can't just shoot him from the walls or send a mob of 100 people to cut him down.

Happy marathoning! So, how many subbed epis.... *goes to check* Oh, 28 as of now. It'll be a while then before you are done. Remember to come up for some air every now and then. ;)

Well, gives me a time to get some of my drama backlog done before you start pimping something else I need to watch, ha.

Am on ep 6 already so will probably be done in a week :) Each ep is onl 45 minutes each which makes a huge difference.

True. I tend to find that after weeks binging on genre [---], I always feel like a little change. Still, period cdramas are the ones I obsess over the most so this LJ would probably be 80% that and my flist would run away in horror :)

They wont do the arrowing and battle en masse ever fr the get go, not over a LuBu and EvilDong, that's last resort and stupid in practicality. At this stage of the story, the 3 fractions r not yet established and it's premature to get on a full on battle with LuBu/Evil Dong who have a huge army surrounding their fortress, if they instigated, they r outnumbered and will not last long enough for backups to arrive ( ... )

Oh, that makes sense.

I got to say, if this had an American fandom the three bros would be slashed to no end.
