From the video-
This is a film of a medieval fighting recreation inspired by the Combat of the Thirty (1351 AD) using modified SCA fighting rules. Fighters who are struck three stout blows to the head in one continuous fight are stunned and must yield and later give their ransom to their captor. Fighters who have three points of their body contacting the ground must yield. Opponents can be killed by a thrust to vital areas without metal armour or a bar grilled helm. Normal SCA blows to the body and the limbs have no affect.

Approximately 45 combatants took part. The French won this deed of arms. This event took place at the annual Pennsic War XLIV in August 2015. Please provide comments and ratings for feedback.

I participated in a “Combat of the Thirty” scenario at Lilies War three years ago and it was a blast!  I managed to take one prisoner before I was taken down.
