Re: unsolicited advice on fighting.
I do not love that guy. If I am beating the crap out of someone, I will stop the fight and tell them what I am doing and ASK if they want a piece of advice.

Re: SCA and Battle of Nations
So some punks named Jade, Uther, Cuan, Lucan and Ice Falcon have joined the team. If you think you are a bad ass this may be something you want in on. Gee, thanks. Guess I know where I stand. Douche. Are you a punk? I think of you as a respected elder statesman. Avuncular. Grandfatherly, even.

I am going in April. I have done some fights with the rule set here. Are there specific questions you have? Ice Falcon went over a couple of years ago and fought some guys there using steel. Good gauntlets are a must have.
