I find the results to be comparable to most of the examples I have read of arrows and single handed weapons not faring well against mailled soldiers.

Hence the reason the poleaxe, Bill and Glaive became predominant weapons on the battle field

Sorry... but this is a game of striking with intent.

adapt or quit.

cant sugar coat it.

We had "lights" up here too...

the ones that wanted to keep playing..they adapted and got fully armored.
The ones that didnt...quit.

Those are your choices.... like it or not.

Ealdormere is not.

I had been taught to turn my head in anticipation of a face thrust, and had no idea it was considered offensive. I was surprised to read your post. How is this regarded in other areas?

The 90 degree rule was removed and replaced by the "excessive force" rule because the degree of swing was found to have no relevance to the power of the shot.

Pennsic Allied Champions Battle - Thoughts?

I thought it was the best battle of the War. For those that missed it, it was a capture the flag battle where we had a field 100 yards wide and 150 yards long and 100 people a side. yYou had to capture the opponents flag and run it back to your flag. Both flags had to be in the marked flag "crease" ...
