The Riddle of Steel
About
A knightly themed HEMA tournament for your pleasure! Come join us in our new permanent space!There will be three weapons forms over two days - Sword and Buckler and Judicial Duelling (spear/halfsword/dagger) on the Saturday, and Longsword on the Sunday.
Rules will be a "least worst ruleset" - a simple deductive afterblow system for the regular HEMA weapons (S&B, Longsword) and first to five good touches to "unarmoured" targets in Judicial. Limited grappling allowed in Judicial Duelling - you still win by putting the pointy end in the other guy.
BYO weapons for S&B and Longsword. Provided weapons for Judicial. For judical we'll be putting plastrons over regular hema gear and providing helmet overlays for those without upgraded masks (i.e. wukusi sallets/cobras, helmet overlay or similar).
