The origins of the sabre are somewhat unclear, and it may come from designs such as the falchion or the scimitar used in the Middle Ages by such Central Asian cavalry as the Turks, Tatars, and Mongols. The Sabre first appeared in Europe with the arrival of the Hungarians in the 10th Century. Originally, the sabre was used as a cavalry weapon that gradually came to replace the various straight bladed cutting sword types on the battlefield. As time went on, sabres became insignia of rank in many armies.

The word "scimitar", known in English since 1548, derived from Medieval French cimeterre (15c.) or directly from Italian scimitarra, of unknown origin. Ottoman Turkish would be the expected source, but no such word has been found there.

If you play an unsuccessful Block against a hidden attack, you may play a new Block from your hand to defend that attack. Your dodges won't avoid multiple attacks.
