Curved Sword
The Curved Sword is a Miscellaneous melee weapon. It is not used by any unit and is found only in the Unit Creator.
Characteristics
The Curved Sword is a Scimitar with a long and distinctly curved blade. It has moderate cut damage and a short cooldown period after an attack. Despite it having a lengthier blade, its attack range is just as short as shorter swords.
Units handle the Curved Sword by swinging it from the side toward their opponents or simply striking their blade downward. Poor dexterity and the blade's increased length may result in it scraping the ground instead.
History
Used, among Turkic and Tungusic soldiers, the scimitar was often seen in Central Asia, usually for horse warfare due to their lightness compared to other options, as well as their curved design being of especially good use whilst mounted. Even Mongols, Rajputs, and Sikhs used scimitars in warfare, among many others, whilst also spreading since the Ottoman period. However, by the time of firearms, these weapons fell out of use and were only used in ceremonial and dressing functions.
Trivia
The Curved Sword is referred to as The 'Centaur Sword' in the game files.
It was first seen when Landfall released a video showing the Physics animation system 3.0 and by the end of the video, a Centaur Unit can be seen wielding two curved swords. Today It is found in the Unit Creator.
