Photos from the event "Battle of Wisby 650 years, 1361-2011"
Sir Patrick:
They truck it in from New Jersey ;)
John:
What is the level of contact like at events like the one at Wisby? I notice that there are many soldiers with kettle helmets and open visors. This suggests that the face, and probably the head is off limits, would this be right? With that most of the spears appear to be pointing at the chest or lower.

It does depend on the group but most do avoid the head. At Hastings in 06 the head was a no no.

Sadly, we only have those of the colonial era & Civil war at home. Let's invite the Brits back for another go around at retaking their colonies. LOL I'm sure the Queen would love to reclaim the old empire. Prolly still has some venom from when we lowly Americans kicked her ancestor's royal assets. We'll make it a medieval challenge to retake America. Tell them they can even bring the Frenchies along to make it more fun for us. :)
