[Moo] The Tuesday after Pennsic

[Kelly Bennett]

Things I learned in the last two weeks:
1. Count Sinclair makes a great shield. However, once you have killed a significant number on the other side you should leave or they will rush you, beat you and throw you off the bridge. 

2. When you knock down the big Knight with the pole arm his squires will beat you. Once you are dead, Atlantia will beat them.

3. Call for shields early or when they arrive you may find yourself blocking part of Bloodguard with just your shoulder and your spear. 

4. With sufficient skill and determination, even bad plans can work.

5. There is a gap in my shoulder armor that exposes parts of the joint while being beaten. 

So to sum it all up, my shoulder has almost regained full mobility and the bruising seems to be getting better. I can almost not feel my feet again (feeling your feet is bad). And I can use some more sleep. 

 I will not be at practice on Tuesday. I plan to start re-padding my helms and cleaning my gear. I will be back next week.

So, you have unpacked (mostly), rested (a bit), and have a new move or
technique that you want to try, perfect, or show off?  Then Tuesday
fighter practice is THE place for you.  You will have the chance to
impress and bedazzle those piteous few who dodged the press gangs and
missed the war (AKA Pennsic).

Fighter practice is taking place, hold on let me check the calendar,
Yes, fighter practice is taking place Tuesday at Prince William
Fencing Academy 8440 Kao Circle Manassas, from 7 pm (1900) until 9 pm
(2100) ish.

I am planning on bring a video camera as a training aid.  I hope to
see you there and look forward to catching up on what has happened the
last two weeks.
