When I started out in fencing 15 years ago, I started with epee and worked my way up to schlager. I also worked with foul a bit, as one of the groups I practiced with had several holdovers using that form. Not long after, the game I was in (you know the one) dropped epee from their rules.
Here at the Inn, we are discussing reviving it. Lighter weight weapons are appealing for some of us for various reasons, and the chance to focus more on finesse than brute strength provides a challenge. Perhaps we could start developing some guideline for light rapier.
Thoughts or objections?
