Download Sword And Sandals 2

The term "peplum" (a Latin word referring to the ancient Greek garment peplos), was introduced by French film critics in the 1960s.[2][3] The terms "peplum" and "sword-and-sandal" were used in a condescending way by film critics. Later, the terms were embraced by fans of the films, similar to the terms "spaghetti Western" or "shoot-'em-ups". In their English versions, peplum films can be immediately differentiated from their Hollywood counterparts by their use of "clumsy and inadequate" English language dubbing.[4] A 100-minute documentary on the history of Italy's peplum genre was produced and directed by Antonio Avati in 1977 titled Kolossal: i magnifici Maciste (aka Kino Kolossal).[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

As Robert Rushing defines it, peplum, "in its most stereotypical form, [...] depicts muscle-bound heroes (professional bodybuilders, athletes, wrestlers, or brawny actors) in mythological antiquity, fighting fantastic monsters and saving scantily clad beauties. Rather than lavish epics set in the classical world, they are low-budget films that focus on the hero's extraordinary body."[13] Thus, most sword-and-sandal films featured a superhumanly strong man as the protagonist, such as Hercules, Samson, Goliath, Ursus or Italy's own popular folk hero Maciste. In addition, the plots typically involved two women vying for the affection of the bodybuilder hero: the good love interest (a damsel in distress needing rescue), and an evil femme fatale queen who sought to dominate the hero.

After the peplum gave way to the spaghetti Western and Eurospy films in 1965, the genre lay dormant for close to 20 years. Then in 1982, the box-office successes of Jean-Jacques Annaud's Quest for Fire (1981), Arnold Schwarzenegger's Conan the Barbarian (1982) and Clash of the Titans (1981 film) (1981) spurred a second renaissance of sword and sorcery Italian pepla in the five years immediately following. Most of these films had low budgets, focusing more on barbarians and pirates so as to avoid the need for expensive Greco-Roman sets. The filmmakers tried to compensate for their shortcomings with the addition of some graphic gore and nudity. Many of these 1980s entries were helmed by noted Italian horror film directors (Joe D'Amato, Lucio Fulci, Luigi Cozzi, etc.) and many featured actors Lou Ferrigno, Miles O'Keeffe and Sabrina Siani. Here is a list of the 1980s pepla:

hey my man was 27 or higher level and my strength was 60 (so i had last weapon) and my attack was 40 so he could usually hit power attack but i had 1 problem which is the last tournaments boss had very very good bow and agility (mine 1 lol) so R.I.P. NameLess

i can help you but you should choose your way first:

1) a lot strength and attack increase a little defence and very little stamina (easy to start hard to finish)

you should use third section weapon (i forgot the name i mean not sword and bow)

your armor selection isn't that important but when you buy your first weapon you have to wear some armor maybe gives 10 but don't forget you start with duels.. -you should try to buy them for diffrents areas of body first (except helmet, shield and brestplate) but when your choose some part you should buy approximately best one.. don't forget some of them have very good benefits like dodging from arrows, decreasing power hit percent of enemy and increasing your charging speed (means go further when you do charge)

after tournament you should buy new weapon ("FIRSTLY" you should buy weapon so you should give points to strength if you level up while in tournament or if you not and maybe your strength very near to new weapon's required strength you should wait until you level up in duels)

and new armour but you should buy shield (very important! buy one of the best shield) then helmet (important! then buy good helmet too if you can't you can try to earn money in duels or wait until other tournament prize, depends on your money) then brestplate (if you have helmet and shield you should buy this because gives good armor) then others..

2) Agility and attack

I haven't played like this so i don't know about this a lot but I can say: Hard to start - easy to finish (later you'll have 15 arrows and with best bows no one can stay alive while you are in battlefield lol)

notes

never sleep at street %90 you will lose ALL of your money so tavern is much cheaper

DON'T BE HELPFUL! (sometimes your man see something in street just turn your back and run without looking back! I don't know why the makers of game do it but when you help you always lose very valuable thing like -3 strength!)

if your agility is something like 1 check always enemy's weapon in duels if he have even worst bow you should fight with him just go out from arena and come back and check other one's bow (sometimes they directly hit to your health so don't try even if you are about 25 level)

I must say that I didn't do any enchantment but i was planning for after tournament for 27 levels.but I can say that when you have first one you hardly use it when you are going to buy any try to buy second but don't forget you will change your weapon after new tournament so I think it waste of money until you reach the last weapon

Hope you bought the game because in many websites it's limited to 12 and in others you can't save so if you like game buy it or you will be very sorry after your character

An other good tactic is killing people with sonic shocks and since none of you play on fizzy this you will need highly protection on tournements and this is the best way to avoid damage and burst your foes at the same time. When you start get 10 charisma. Then kill the prisoner and get 2 agi and 2 more charisma. Now since your in town you will need some arms. Fighting with charisma requires no wep but your mouth. However, while you are wearing an enchanted wep all your spells,taunts and even win the crowd move will have a chance to pop it.So to get a high %30 proc chance on our main ability taunt we will need an enchanted wep. Get your rusty dagger level 3 enchanted. Yes,this will cause only 3 damage but your foe will be stunned. You will need no more wep but that dagger through the game now and you can spend all your money on armors. Although since charisma makes crowd happier and makes you get huge discounts you will not need much money so be happy about the duels. Your stats must be like: Max 30 Min 10 Agi (you might need to run away to shout but never buy a swords buy a bow if you really like tough) Max 25(22 recommended 3 more for fat kid) Min 1 Macika (For weaken armor,regenerate) And get charisma and vitality in a balance as much as you can. Your taunt will get i think 3 more damage per charisma but my level 40 charismatic char could hit 500-600 per taunt. Taunt will be your main ability it will make crowd bit angry but I could will the crowd bar with 2 win the crowd and in end game, it will start with %100 so dont worry about it. Taunts will usually have %99 chance to SHOW ITS EFFECT and might be get lower due to your oppoment but it will not fall under 50 and no attack will not increase it, yes charisma will. Anyways, taunts have 3 effects to proc, 1-Damage(this will be increased by 3 points per charisma) 2-Enrage(will become really rare after like 30 charisma) 3-Fear(This is pretty useful while fighting melee combatants with like no agility) Note that taunt says %99 chance to hit it doesnt say %99 chance to use the 1st effect its %99 chance to use one of the effects. You might need some money and t odouble your gainings from duels you can try this. Fill the crowd bar before the taunts hit but i wouldnt recommend this if you have low low agility since you will be burned filling the bar. My own strategy is to one shot people with no armor and make ones with armor come to their last armor piece,fill the bar burst him. Get all the armors as you will reach its level and remember you inventory is a good spot to be filled up. MY inventory was like, 1-Weaken Armor 2-Weaken Armor 3-Swift Sandals(Please note that its not needed at all if you got more than 30 agi since itseffect is to double your agi and might be replaced with more useful spells like Little Fat Kid) 4-Regenerate(i have like 1.1k hp)5-Maximun Armor Elixir 6-Maximum Armor Elixir. Also you might need some stamina since my game is bugged and it counts me sleeping while I am taunting. And for the last my game has got an other bug which is, when my taunt caused,fear or enrage or has been blocked when ever i charge i pop the taunts base damage like 300 instead of 3.

Contrast Sword and Sorcery, on which the name is based (or vice versa). Strictly speaking, the two genres are distinguished by Sword and Sorcery having explicitly fantastic settings, typically a pseudo-Medieval European style Constructed World. Conversely, Sword And Sandal at least pretends to depict real-world historical settings, usually being set during classical antiquity in the Mediterranean regions. There is often some overlap though (as seen in the more Conan-inspired sword and sandal films of the '80s), especially when mythology gets involved, but it is usually existing mythology, based directly on Hellenic tradition.

Films - Live-Action Clash of the Titans (1981) - A loose adaptation of the Perseus myth, featuring Stop Motion monsters from Ray Harryhausen. Ultimately, it would be the last feature film he would work on. Clash of the Titans (2010) - A remake of the above Colossus and the Headhunters. The "Colossus" of the title is actually the recurring Italian character Maciste, who didn't have much name recognition in the United States, and whose name was considered too hard to pronounce, prompting the Market-Based Title, though in the English dub, his name is still Maciste, with "Colossus" as simply a nickname. When it appeared later on Mystery Science Theater 3000, his name was misheard as "My Cheesesteak". Atlas in the Land of the Cyclops: Despite the Market-Based Title, both the original Italian release and its English dub are about Maciste, and there is no character named Atlas. Our hero gets roped into protecting the last descendant of Odysseus from the Cyclops, who is still mad about what happened in The Odyssey. Goliath And The Dragon: Again, despite the Market-Based Title, this movie (known in its native Italy as La Vendetta di Ercole, or The Revenge of Hercules) is actually about Hercules, although even in the dub, he's not supposed to be the same Goliath as in the Bible, but a guy named Emilius that everybody calls Goliath because he's so big. The change was made so that it could be marketed as a sequel to the earlier Goliath And The Barbarians, but it probably would have been easier to leave him as Hercules. Samson and His Mighty Challenge (a 1965 Italian film also starring Hercules, but Samson's in there too). Later Gag Dubbed as Hercules Returns. Helen of Troy (1956) Hercules (1958) and sequels. The first one, starring Steve Reeves, is the first movie to be called a "sword and sandal" one, and is said to have kicked off the Italian peplum wave. A few of the Reeves films - including the original - would later appear on Mystery Science Theater 3000, which got a lot of mileage out of this kind of movie. Hercules (1983), starring Lou Ferrigno. Followed by a sequel in 1985. Hercules (2014), starring Dwayne Johnson, based on Hercules: The Thracian Wars. Hercules and the Captive Women (also known as "Hercules And The Conquest Of Atlantis"). Introduced British bodybuilder Reg Park as Hercules, who travels to a proto-fascistic Atlantis to prevent the prophesied destruction of all Greece. Was also featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000. Hercules In The Haunted World (or Hercules in the Centre of the Earth) - Another with Reg Park as Herc. Director Mario Bava, best known for his very stylized horror movies, brings kind of a Dark Fantasy tone to this movie, with a very vivid depiction of the Underworld. Christopher Lee, another horror icon, plays the villain. Hercules, Prisoner of Evil was marketed as the third in the Reg Park-as-Hercules trilogy, but is actually another Dolled-Up Installment, as its original Italian title translates better to Ursus, Terror of the Kirghiz. As you can guess from that title, Reg's character wasn't originally supposed to be Hercules (and isn't even really the hero of the movie; it's mainly about his younger brother), and it's set in Central Asia (specifically, what is now Kirghizstan) during the time of Pax Mongolica. The American distributor figured that the setting would be exotic enough that most viewers wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Hercules the Avenger. Hercules (Park again) travels to the Underworld, mostly via Stock Footage from Captive Women and Haunted World, to save his son Xanthus, whose mind has been stolen by the wicked earth goddess Gaia. Meanwhile, a fellow demigod - Gaia's son Anteus, a rival for the title of World's Strongest Man, but only when he's touching the ground - has assumed Hercules' name back in the land of the living and is terrorizing the people of Syracuse. The Steve Reeves version of Hercules may have jumpstarted the peplum boom, but it was itself inspired by the 1954 movie Ulysses, an adaptation of The Odyssey starring Kirk Douglas. Hundra - based on the myth of the Amazons Immortals Jason and the Argonauts - another one with Ray Harryhausen effects, this one tells the first half of the Jason myth (because the second half is a total downer). Hercules is also in this movie, but in a supporting role. The Legend of Hercules The Loves of Hercules - starring Mickey Hargitay as Hercules and his real-life wife Jayne Mansfield as the loves (yes, plural). One of the Hotter and Sexier entries into the genre. Was also featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000. Minotaur My Son The Hero Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger - Another Harryhausen movie. Mainly an "Arabian Nights" Days story, but with elements of this genre, with Sinbad traveling to a still-Classical Greece to recruit the alchemist Melanthius for his journey. The movie takes a lot of its fantasy elements from Greek myths as well, most specifically the concept of Hyperborea. Troy e24fc04721
