Even WITH the foam weapons... I've seen a leg dislocated... bruises COVERING the arm... some have gotten welts from it...
do you HONESTLY think we'd NOT use foam covered weapons when that happens WITH it?
(Sure the leg was dislocated not by the weapon and was really the knee but it was during the fight of it.. and the leg was hit by the weapon.. [was trapped foot, back step + weapon hit hard = dislocation])
Brings back a lot of memories lol. I used to be a lvl 6 warrior and a lvl4 monk. What i don't like is how the majority of people use shields...i never once needed them. My long sword is my shield lol
my sisters boyfriend is doing this. he is currently making all his armor and weapons in our living room. At first i was laughing at how ridiculous it was, but the more i saw, the more i learned. I mean, i play WoW, so i figured, its like wow, but IRL... so therefore better. Anyway, its just really interesting and im looking to get into it. im in southern california, anyone who has any information they think i should know, feel free to send me a message on my channel.
i'm from Satyr's Crossing, and have been there for around 7 years and it's the best thing since sliced bread. it's just too bad there aren't that many videos on amtgard like this. i'm currently working on video projects for amtagard myself as in weaponmaster rounds and quests and instructional videos. and videos like this have inspired me to do that, so i must say thank you
I am from Western Gate under the kingdom of Rising Winds. Names Commodore Kemen. Message me privately, I want to get amtgard promoted. I need multi-park help.
An excellent promo video, I use it when trying to recruit people to play with me and my barony at the five oaks, which is part of the rising winds kingdom.
We have a section of our rulebook dedicated to weapon construciton and safety. Because of these requirements we are able to play every week even though it is equivelent to a contact sport like soccer or football. If you would like more information please let me know.
It's nothing like football or soccer. I've been playing Amtgard for 12 years now and with the requirements we have with weapons now it's more like a kids game now. Now if we were still using first gen weapons then yeah it's close to soccer but still not even in the same ballpark. SCA is more along the lines of football and they still play every week :)
The Amtgard rulebook can be found on the website listed at the end of the video. From there click on the Amtgard Inc. link then the Core documents link.
I will try and send you a link directly since I cannot post one here.
wow! that's my kingdom at pac war! Blackspire did this apparently. Infact that's a friend of mine wearing my armor off to the side in the archer clip. I only had one sleeve done by that point and was playing healer so i loaned i out. We owned that pac :)
