Combat Training
 eing
a re-enactment society, combatant members learn to make and use real weapons
and armour based on historical evidence. For this reason, the training
regime stresses SAFETY! with members being put through a standard training
regime. The weapons we use are deliberately made blunt but are in every
other way the real thing.
 
 n
the photo above you can see members at combat training learning to fight
in close formation. Note in particular the spearman on the right. The spear
was very effective against a 'shieldwall', a line of warriors with their
shields locked together. The spear could be used to get past the enemy
shields.
 raining
is held every Sunday fortnight at 2.00pm at Walka Water Works, 5 minutes
drive from Maitland Centre. Please come along and meet us.
