Mixed battles

Mixed battles are war battles that involve both heavy fighters and light fighters, e.g. archers. During these battles, lights are allowed to kill heavies and each other (using their bow/arrows, throwing axes etc). Heavies are are not allowed to strike lights. Instead, they must approach the light at 5m and call "My lord, you are slain" to kill them.

Occasionally, there are mixed battles involving fencers and other combatants.

The minimum armour standards for mixed battles differ from the standard rules due to the additional weapons involved.
