Awesome. So take your thoughts and apply them to the situation. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 02/02/2011 08:10:05 PM
It absorbs all force directed towards it? Guess how you move objects? You apply force. The only functional difference between pushing something and hitting it with a sword is how much energy you're putting into it in an area. If cuendillar absorbs all force, you can't move it because it absorbs that force.

This is why arguing about impossible materials is stupid.

We had a lengthy discussion of this on wotmania a few years ago... - 26/01/2011 06:46:27 PM 1241 Views
There are problems. - 26/01/2011 07:14:29 PM 1149 Views

So, a thin layer of cuendillar, with lot of padding? *NM* - 26/01/2011 09:52:18 PM 424 Views

The spike was a later addition; the primary method of damage was blunt force trauma. *NM* - 28/01/2011 09:20:32 PM 410 Views
Plate armor is also a "late addition" - 03/02/2011 03:22:55 PM 869 Views
Who says it would transmit the shockwaves? As you note below it violates many laws of physics. *NM* - 02/02/2011 06:51:18 PM 436 Views

a cookie for you! cheers *NM* - 27/01/2011 10:38:46 PM 400 Views
well there seems to be more effective ways of going about making armor - 28/01/2011 06:54:37 PM 986 Views

I know, but it's more fun to break physics with magic *NM* - 02/02/2011 09:27:36 PM 446 Views
