Heavy fighting

2005-12-14T15:32:52Z

131.137.245.199:

'''Heavy Fighting''' is the term used in [[Lochac]] to refer to [[SCA]] armoured foot [[combat]]. Most other [[kingdom]]s refer to it as simply as '''Armoured Combat''', but the term '''hardsuit fighting''' is also used in some Southern US kingdoms. Participants are [[assumed armour|assumed]] to be [[armour]]ed in a [[chainmaille|mail]] [[hauberk]], with boiled [[leather]] armor covering the legs and arms, and a [[Norman]] style [[helm]] with a nasal. The [[weapon]]s used are made of [[rattan]] covered in [[duct tape]] and sometimes with a foam [[thrusting tip]].

'''Armoured Combat''' or Heavy Fighting comes in three varieties:
# [[Tournament]]s, which are one-on-one in a small defined area (called a [[list field]])
# [[Melee]]s, being many-on-many on a list field
# [[War]]s, which take place on open fields, in woods or over/around structures such as [[wall]]s, [[fort]]s and [[bridge]]s. War combat also allows [[archery]], [[siege weapons]] and [[thrown weapon]]s ([[mixed combat]]).

All participants must be authorised by a senior [[marshal]]. [[Authorisation]] involves a test on the [[Combat handbook|Rules of Combat]] followed by a supervised bout against an experienced opponent. Generally, most people have to train regularly for 3-6 months before they are ready to authorise. Heavy combat is the style used to choose [[palatine]] rulers (Palatine [[Baron]]/[[Baroness]], [[Viceroy]]/[[Vicereign]], [[Prince]]/[[Princess]] and [[King]]/[[Queen]]).
