If there is no lower limit...

and we divide all of human history in half...


then the late half is approximately anything after the founding of Greece

Re: The Iron Chicken stance has got to go (SCA).

If the head is exposed smash em in the head


if the arm is exposed smash em in the arm

if you can trap the sword and then hit em in the head because then have it right there for ya to do it then that's even better

keep killing guys using that stance and people will quit using it

The incident i think Astraoth is referring too is the SCA member who was a _convicted_ hit man and kept his belt even though he had killed a woman and her child for money and been convicted.

It was iirc only removed after he had died in jail.
