Yeah, probably. In fact, what I have planned for the Moonsilver one is almost identical to Kapskaen's version. Although, his name for the Mythos is better, so maybe he'll let me take it and credit him?
Right. The silly part, to me, isn't that it requires special training to use a heavier weapon. It's imagining a situation whereby someone would actually master the use of a solid gold longsword, but completely refuse to learn the much more common and sensible iron/steel version.
It's sort of like if somebody lived in a really urban area their whole life and never had to learn how to drive because they always took public transit everywhere. Then they joined the military and worked their way up to driving a tank. And then they come home, and they're like... how do I drive this car? All I know how to drive are armored platforms of invincible death. Can I get a car that weighs 68 tons and works on treads, 'cause this handling is ridiculous???
Possible, but odd.
