Me in Mordhau (I’m the one dying on the floor):
I spent a week trying to get back into Mordhau and once again quit because I’m just so bad at it…
I know the feeling…
And his name is John HEMA
Cena moment.
What’s it called when people re-enact battles? Not larping or war gaming - stuck in the back of my mind
Generally just called re-enactment if it’s supposed to be a strict representation of the battle. There are lot of Civil War re-enactments here in the US, and some of them get pretty rigorous, timing things down to the minute as they happened in the course of the battle.
I’m pretty sure that’s SCA, not HEMA
Ya, HEMA would be dudes in modern plastic protective gear, maybe wearing a gambeson. Some people who do both would sometimes use metal gloves, but never a full set of armor.
Medieval wrestling?
