Description
The Mordhau, also called "murder-stroke" is a technique that consists of grabbing the sword by the blade and hitting your enemy using the guard and pommel, like if it was a mace. It was usually used against armored targets, where cutting or stabbing was pretty much useless. Here Enorach is about to demonstrate such techniqie, while Lars watches his back.What can I say? I had an itch to draw some more armors, and who better than Eno as a main subject for this?
I hope you like it!

Yep, he can be all cuddly and adorable one second and then transform in a killing machine the moment after. A typical cat, basically

I had to Google that... And oof.
But I was referring to seeing videos on YouTube with Mordhau gameplay and a bard in game playing that and another tune...

with a sword that big and heavy the Mordhau might cut off his fingers once the pommel and guard actually hit.

Neat to see such an mostly forgotten techniques. Even though to use it most sane fighters would have full gauntlets to safely use.
Thank you for sharing.

I think its cool your showing just how many ways you can kill with the European long blade, there are just so many misconceptions about how they are used due to freakywood; as a note though he should have gloves or something on to help prevent his hand from being cut by his own blade if he slips which is a real possibility in battle. Love that angry kitty expression!

Agreed, not many people know there were several ways to use a longsword. These technique are so underrated, it's a shame! ^^
Yes, he probably should, but he'd need some gloves tailored just for him, as his fingers are a bit different than human ones.
