The Judicial Duel in Talhoffers Tradition

[The Wandering Knight]

So this was put up a while back on another forum I frequent, and I thought I'd share it with you guys.

Blossfechter should have the actual duel portion done fairly soon.
Till then a non-judicial duel representation by them.

Good form considering they pretty much threw it together.

Ah yes I saw that one the same day (when they put them both out); was quite funny.

6 weeks until a potentially deadly duel and you only train 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the evening? Man I'd love to have Talhoffer as my drill sergeant.

 

[The Wandering Knight]

You drill four hours a day, and you probably do physical training for a good portion too.  Keep in mind that this individual also has something else to do most likely.

Thought this would be more popular :S

Something more important than trying not to be dead? Man those medieval folks really had a hell of a work ethic.

I'd say 2 daily training sessions with two hours devoted to each is quite enough time in addition to all the physical exercise  and getting up early.

i was really pleased with those, its good to see

some times i wish it was more mainstream, but then i think that might just spoil it by having people not really dedicated polluting the pool.

thanks for posting that i hadn't seen it before.

No problem.  The MEMAG guys are giving a workshop near me in November; if we make a vid I'll youTube it.
