Better late than never.  Please read below and tell me what you think about
the idea.  FYI, I have already emailed Don Eteine about this.

Take care,

     Phelippe

What I am thinking about doing is hosting a tourney
>as close to the London
>Masters of Defence tourney as possible.  After a
>little bit of thinking the
>first conclusion I came to would boil down to a swis
>5 which happens all the

>tourney that involved the
>fighters using both light and heavy weapons but that
>would limit the fighter
>pool because not everyone can fight light or heavy
>(and vice versa.)  What
>would you all recommend?  I know that a LMoD tourney
>involved rapier
>fighting but also involved fighting with a great
>sword and also a pole arm.
