Damn, every time I think I'm original or clever today, someone beats me to it.

I was just thinking of "demon core on a warhammer/shield/trebuchet (not a catapult because that's for plebs)"

Small point of pedantry, that is a flail, not a mace. A mace is mounted directly onto a handle, flails have the flexible material between the weight and the handle.

I just happened to have the exact best response possible pic saved recently enough that I could find it in my phone. 🤣 This makes my whole day!

Fixed it for you.

Demon core memes are my favorite thing from NCD and literally nobody else in my life even knows what it is, let alone think they're funny.

It's the same with Ea-Nasir memes.

Is there a lemmy community about it?

NonCredibleDefense, not sure which instance it's on, but they hit all on the regular.

You're not alone, you're together through time with so many others past and future. None of us are going to put up with repeatedly subpar copper ever again.

Have hope! The swords were actually invented in 20k years!

Tell that to my uranium sword.

That would be a Jedi lightsaber. I can't remember which YT channel calculated the amount of energy in those little bastards but I think it was about a small nuclear recator
