Pennsic Historic Combat Series Schedule

Post by Asbjorn Johansen »

This is the proposed schedule has been submitted to the Battlefield Coordinator Viscountess Eilika von Lutson (I’ve worked with a lot of great volunteers at Pennsic over the years but she is probably the best combination of helpful and organized I’ve run into):


Wednesday 10th
3:00 Historic Combat Series: Pass du Dragon Noir

There are no appearance requirements to participate in this combat. The Pas du Dragon Noir (Passage of Armes of the Black Dragon) will be a 15th century Burgundian style pas, in the tradition of Jaques de Lalaing's pas "The Passage of the Fountain of Tears." A combatant who is driven from the list, falls to the ground, or drops their weapon will have lost. Challenges maybe offered with pollaxe, long sword, dagger or spear. Matched weapons will be provided.

Thursday 11th
1:00 Historic Combat Series: Judicial Combats
There are no appearance requirements to participate in this combat. Recreation the judicial combats of the western Europe focusing on the German tradition as shown in the manuals. Combatants start with a spear, longsword and dagger. Matched weapons will be provided. Combats will be run using the “As Real Men Foughtâ€Â

Asbjorn, thanks for continuing to do this kick-ass event each year. Some day I'll make it to see the fun going on.

Take this ring. There is nothing more capacious, more whole, or more durable than the circle. At every point it is suited to repelling blows, and its motion is the freest of all figures. -Leon Batista Alberti

Orazio, since this series has been a brilliant feature of the War for the past (??) five years, I'd say the odds are good that you'll get to play next year!
