Had a really good session on Sunday at the RH hall. There was 5 knights in armour and 6 fighters, mostly belted fighters. Again I found myself being fairly aggressive, I guess because I was very low on energy I didn't have much to spare, so I was just getting in and doing it? It's a theory anyhow.
Did some good passes with Mason glaive on glaive to start with. His glaive was much longer than mine, plus he did not have a butt spike, so I made sure to get in and play a closer range game which each time I did, he could not get me. During Lorcan's classes last year he taught us the glaive positioning when facing another glaive, and each time I use this stance my defence against the thrusts of another glaive is quite tight, so Mason could not use his length as an advantage against me in a thrusting fight. Was quite happy with these passes.
Next up was Edmond. Definately enjoyed these passes and afterwards Lorcan pulled me aside and showed me that the tip of my glaive was up far too high, and was not presenting a full threat to Edmond. Edmond joined in the conversation (thanks Edmond) and also agreed that the times that I lowered the glaive he felt threatened by it, but the times I held it up he knew it was not a real threat and could dictate the fights. I used this information during the King of the Hill at the end of the day and did quite well with opening fight kills.
All in all, I was quite happy with my fighting today.
