TAA i.3.33.3

                                                                                 (2)

as follows:- (1) Arms which are wielded by hand at 

close quarters. These are subdivided into (a) cleaving 

weapons, e.g. axes; (b) crushing, e.g. clubs, maces, 

and all hammer-like arms; (c) thrusting, e.g. pointed 

swords and daggers; (d) cutting, e.g. sabres (such weapons 

frequently combine both the cut and the thrust, e.g. swords 

with both edge and point); (e) those weapons represented 

by the spear, lance, pike, &c, which deal a thrusting 

blow but are distinguished from (c) by their greater length.
     (2) Purely missile weapons, e.g. darts, javelins and 

spears. Frequently these weapons are used also at 

close quarters as thrusting weapons; the typical example 

of these is the medium-length spear.
      (3) Arms which discharge missiles, e.g. bows, 

catapults, and fire-arms generally.
     The weapons in (2) and (3) are designed to avoid 

hand-to-hand fighting.

Defensive armour consists of body armour, protection

for the head and limbs, and various types of shield.
