This tournament is about elevating the hobbies,
out of perceived geekdom, onto a level playing field of skill, which
anyone who has seen Ben-Hur, Lord of the Rings, Gladiator
or Troy, can easily relate to.
If you’re a real fighter -
not an impervious dragon-scaled monster hunter or a telegraph-your-blows,
ham-it-up crowd pleaser, - then, this tournament is for
you.
There are 6 preliminary rounds you can enter;
3 for re-enactors, 3 for role-players and all with 4 weapons classes
in which you can fight.
These rounds are only open to those actively participating at
the events, at which they are being held.
The weapons you will be fighting with are “real
weight”, specially commissioned, role-play weapons (ideal for
safe free-form fighting, in any environment). You’ll
win the weapon(s) you go on to fight with in the Grand Finals at Earl’s
Court.
In the Grand Finals, you will be
fighting in front of well over 30,000 people in:
1-on-1 single discipline, knockout competition, as well as in
a 4-on-4 multidiscipline, team and objective based, league.
