<p>128.143.30.194: /* Fighting Styles */</p> <hr /> <div>'''Tactics used in hand to hand combat''' vary as greatly as though that perform them. Whilst [[dirty trick]]s are frowned upon in [[recreationist]] [[combat]], there are a large variety of combat tactics used during the [[medieval]] period.<br /> <br /> These range from the ''tricks'' of combat styles (specialist moves that may be unexpected) to tactics designed to gain a psycological (putting an opponent on the back foot or making them halter in their attack) or physiological advantage (higher ground or fighting into the sun). <br /> <br /> While many different styles of fighting have grown up within the SCA, there are two truly codified systems of fighting sword and shield, the Society's most popular fighting form.<br /> <br /> Those styles are Bellatrix and Oldcastle, created by the legendary Duke Paul of Bellatrix and the late Duke Gyrth Oldcastle, respectively.<br /> <br /> Details of their respective styles can be found at<br /> <br /> [http://www.bellatrix.org/school/ Bellatrix Fighting School]<br /> <br /> [http://scamelee.freeservers.com/oldcastle_1.html Fundamentals of Oldcastle Sword and Shield]<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Jokes about Fighting Methods==<br /> === The &quot;easy&quot; (BASIC style) method ===<br /> 10 hit other person<br /> 20 don't let them hit you<br /> 30 goto 10<br /> <br /> <br /> There is also scope for &lt;br&gt;<br /> 1A. Run away&lt;br&gt;<br /> 1B. If not then:&lt;br&gt;<br /> 2A. Run away faster&lt;br&gt;<br /> 2B. Experience pain&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[category:combat]]</div>
