What a joke,, boffer fighting is a joke...If you want real fighting go to a SCA event.

[premostatus]

SCA is an awesome organization

[b1u3c1ph3r]

Is taking your hits optional? If so, I totally wanna play this game.

[premostatus]

When sparring with anything, anytime, anywhere, it's usually practice and/or training.

[AesirCharm]

@LordBrien They are disciplined in their movement and hit and parry at a decent speed, I think they are doing well...

[DBEtah]

@SirRobertValcore Not true of all boffer groups.

@theirishis4real and the award goes to...

[theirishis4real]

@any of the balless old men arguing over sca vs boffer. ahem get a fuckin life there two differant games you pathetic dumbasses.im only 19 and can see your behaving like fuckin schoolgirls. get over yourselfs. i play dag and attend sca events. i can lay people out in both games...ohohoh and with the same fucking tactics. there games who cares wats better.

was it me or is that screaming "JUMP JUMP JUMP JUMP!

[SirRobertValcore]

@AraduinOfRivervale Dude its two fighters talking smack about their respective groups, there really is no comparison, SCA is great with the full armor combat aspect, vs Dagorhir with its sheer brutality and intense full contact nature. both have their strong and weak points.. And besides Dagorhir and similar Battle Games... boffer is a joke...usually the skill involves swinging your weapon in front of you hoping somebody actually walks into it..

[SirRobertValcore]

@CaptainTongue I do agree, was wondering the same thing. It almost looked like some sort of short glaive or one of those "Medieval Chopper" type weapons... definatly not a proper greek weapon.

As to the boffer thing, it depends on the type, Dag and other use a medium weight discernable edge weapon which allows for a freedom not found in harder weapons. you are free to execute what would be a dreadly attack even with blunt weapons/rattan weapons.

[LordBrien]

@SirRobertValcoreI'll bring my armour and weapons with me and I'll gladly listen to your jokes as you tell me them from the flat of your back. But seriously, I've done boffer fighting before and compared to SCA fighting, it's a joke. But hey,,, as long as you are havng fun that's what counts.

[SirRobertValcore]

@LordBrien I'll answer that, come out to a Dagorhir event so I can tell you some "Jokes". feel free to laugh as you chew on my shield...
