BOTN USA MELEE.mp4

[@baphomet418]

so much more realistic than the sca.

[@DukeTomuki]

hmm seems like they have a group that is ment to stand folks up and 4 to 5 cutters used to build up steam and push you down from the side or from the back.

@SyrLogan yeah I agree, because you only lose by getting knocked down, they don't bother actually defending themselves from hits. It's basically like a bunch of prison guards wailing (or however it's spelt) on a guy with batons

[@SuperSirMiles]

awesome, did you manage to catch any of the melee's?

[@SyrLogan]

Its an interesting branch of a medieval combat system. Unfortunately its a branch that decided on rules that make weapons useless in mass combat and shifted to a grapple/shove/tackle method for determining its victor. The single combat system they use is cool though and I'm going to get into that.

[@baphomet418]

Ok, and what are you saying? This is as real as you can get with out actually killing people. And if you practice HEMA, you know that grappling is a very important part in medieval martial arts.

WTF! 0:23, the guy in white runs up behind a guy, and slices with a shield nearly taking the guys head off. his head went quite far back, i can imagine a decent risk of neck injury from that. how can that be legal? if it is then i wouldent want to be involved in a group like this
