Dictionary of The Weapon

Description

This is a book or magazine about tanks/AFVs and/or military modeling.

Here’s an interesting collection in dictionary form of 600 of the world’s most interesting weapons, including the Phasganon, Ikulimbaang, and of course, the Bastard Sword. Focusing primarily on historical bladed weapons, the dictionary also includes some early firearms such as flint-locks, wheel-locks, and match-locks, plus other weapons like bows, crossbows, shuriken, and more. Some titles in English, but all text is in Japanese. Illustrated with line drawings. An interesting feature of the drawings is the use of radiating lines to indicate sharpened edges, as you’d see in comics. Sounds kind of silly, but it definitely gets the point across (pun intended).
