AboutGisele Expertise I can answer about the main characters of the series, the rules of immortality (how it works), the Watchers, episodes, the sound track, Highlander books. I can`t answer questions about swords (although I do know which is Methos` sword...) and cars and barges...
Question I have several questions and comments about Highlander, so be warned.
Has the show explained how immortals knows an immortal is an immortal, before he or she died their first time, without the 'buzz'?
Why doesn't any immortal use any sort of head protection, like a helmet? Use a gun, or really any other long distance weapon, to immobilize, then chop off the head?
There seems to be alliances with several immortals, like Duncan and Richie, Amanda, Methos, so why don't they use their years of experience to create a martial arts style for swords, to get better at sword fighting, or create a good guy immortal guild, be like the immortal version of the Watchers?
I would think with some of these immortals that have lived thousands of years, fighting with swords, that at least one of them would study on how create a better sword, like one made with titanium, or study their 'buzz' to see if they could 'shut it off'', so no other immortal can find him or her.

Never was it explained.

I believe almost all of them had a code of honor - like do not fight in holy ground, for example.

I, for one, don't think it would be necessary, each one of them had his/her own experience and over the years learned how to defend themselves.
