[@bryceturner1822]

Its good to see diplomacy being practiced at its roots

[@wolfetwain]

Ah, brings back memories. Great video!

[@wolfetwain]

Love the play-by-play!

[@vincentpaynecole]

The unarmored photographer is has a marshal specifically designated to him to keep him safe on the field.

[@quadcannon]

You just have to right-click, hold, and stretch it across the bridge and make sure you're using pikes -- they'll never be able to cross the bridge. ;)

[@wolfetwain]

Clearly the unarmored photographer has plot armor

[@josephdow5428]

Looks fun

[@marcsummerlott3965]

Hurray for the bridge

[@MarcShare4Profit]

Hard time getting used to see and hear this in the US. Then I remind myself most from the US have European toots😊

How do the determine when your out?

[@RenegadePaladin]

It's on the combatant's honor to accept a blow. The standard is a solid blow sufficient for a blade to injure through chain armor. In practical terms, any solid blow should be accepted.

[@RenegadePaladin]

And yes, this means you can say no if you really want. However, that encourages your opponents to hit harder, and past a certain point no one wants that. If you gain a reputation for "rhino hide," refusing to accept basically anything in an effort to power through and win, you will rapidly find yourself unwelcome. It's a surefire way to suffer severe social consequences in the fighter community.

[@jonm2438]

Thats awesome! Wish they did this near me, would love to watch@@RenegadePaladin

[@RenegadePaladin]

@@jonm2438 We probably do! There are chapters all over the United States, Europe, Australia, and southeast Asia. Check out www.sca.org and use the group finder tool. :)
