: says to \|/Haygler\|/:.... great a lefty He smiled and pulled out a 22 inch gladius from the right side of His master belt in His Own left hand, basic in design and fliccked out Hi sleft arm a bit as He got the 36 inch round shield from His back and gripped it in the right hand...the plate wood case with a boss metal center and light metal rim edge

He moved back a pace and pulled His left elbow back to let the right leg lead in the stance the sword edge flat to the inner side of the shield as the point of the sword faced slight ly up at You....He tucked the right shield in tight from chin to lower thigh as the iner edge near His sternum was pushed out slightly to give a small gap and He smiled from under the Y visor helm with the strap secure....ready when You are

== On the sand of the Fighting Pit ==

: says to Joe MacBain Companion of:.... *Seeing you move to a 3 paces distance, I took two quick choppy steps to close to just outside 1 pace distance, and still with my left side leading and my right arm held straight and relaxed behind me, but with my wrist angled to turn the shield on my right forearm so the face of the shield was oriented towards my front, or your left side. 2)I pivoted on my left foot, turning to square up with you and kicking my right foot up the bottom center of your round shiled, intending to drive it upwards and plant the top rim of your own shield into your voice box, with hopes of disabling you from anoxia.*

: says to Joe MacBain Companion of:.... [My time delay was caused by Joe failing to put each of his weapons on it's own line, as required. It took me longer to parse his position from his weapons than it would have had it made a proper post.]

: says to \|/Haygler\|/:.... He was a 7'2 350 lb Torv and You just kicked His shield rim edge and by Thor He let You it hardly moves as He flexes His arm and seeing You there He grunts and and punches His shield right out and aims for Your chest to pin Your sword there if He can (1) as He does so He flashes His left sword arm up and over the rim of His shield face so the blade goes vertical and as Ya have no helmet on and drives the meaty Torv fist wrapped around a pommel right at the middle of Ya smug little face in a aim to remind You ta wear a helm next time Ya come at make Joe MacBain bleed, He hopes Ya off blance as Ya foot never did come down and Yer on one leg

== On the sand of the Fighting Pit ==

: says to Joe MacBain Companion of:.... *I had landed my right foot after the kick, and I am content to let you freeze my sword with your push, but I squatted by bending my knees, to lower my upper body two feet, and allow your punch to pass over my head 2)and then pushed my sword arm upwards, while simultaneously angling that wrist to put a blade edge upwards, so that it would scrape along the face of your shield and strike your extended forearm from beneath, hopefully drawing first blood from a slicing edge

== On the sand of the Fighting Pit ==

: says to \|/Haygler\|/:.... not a hope in hell and He had the shield by the handle and just twisted His wrist down to send the lower edge of the shield back toward Him and catch Your blade on the metal rim(1) seeing as You are down low and some how got the sword free and now hopes is under the rim of My shield I had missed completly it seemed but You are squatting and My left arm is out and seeing You below He just cracks the left hand down so the pommel base would crack into the top of Your head with just enough force to cut Your head as He drove it down(2)



(23:41:39 )

\|/Haygler\|/


== On the sand of the Fighting Pit ==

: says to Joe MacBain Companion of:.... *My sword had scraped along the face of your shield and struck at your extended swordarm and was now high enough to be in the vicinity of your sword pommel, but I straightened from the squat as I arched my spine backwards, and my neck and head backwards, so that your downcoming pommel would pass in front of my head,k and possibly strike the top of my shield 2)a flick of my wrist towards my left arches the blade, from about 2oclock on a clock facing me, counterclockwise to about 10oclock, hoping to intersect the left edge of my sword with your extended left forearm, and hopefully cut enough tendon/muscle to make you lose grip on your weapon.*

== On the sand of the Fighting Pit ==

: says to \|/Haygler\|/:.... You never said what forearm so now You are outside My shield so I see this now and push the right wrist downward to send the face of the shield down and catch Your blade to hot the upper face on the outside(1) as You come up and I hope to have parried Your sword downward I simply draw My left arm back as I do so I turn My left wrist down to try and bring the cutting edge down on Your right shoulder and draw it back lightly just enough to cut a line past Your clothes and Your skin but not sink in the muscles on the shoulder



23:51:34 )

\|/Haygler\|/


== On the sand of the Fighting Pit ==

: says to Joe MacBain Companion of:.... *I raised my right arm with the shield, bending at the elbow as the arm came up to bring the top edge of my shield up faster, so that the upper edge of my shield struck your sword from beneath, just above your hilt, parrying your sword upwards enough that it stayed above contact with my shoulder as you pulled your weapon back 2)I then snap my left wrist back towards my right, chopping my blade in a clockwise arc, my pov, my blade still tip up and moreorless parrallel with the front of my body, still slicing at the extended forearm/wrist of your sword arm (left).*

: says to \|/Haygler\|/:.... His left arm was back from the drawing of the blade as You went for My left arm and crossed Your own body to do so as I think I see this I drive the right shield up and forward to take the Your blade as it comes over to try and shove Your balde and left arm back at You (1) seeing as You raised Your shield and I hope Mine has Your sword arm tied upo good I shove My left sword forward in a quick jabbing motion at Your right lower thigh just above the right knee to try and just get the tip in the leg and draw some blood out hopes is too low for You to be able to react in time

== On the sand of the Fighting Pit ==

: says to Joe MacBain Companion of:.... *my shield is kinda high, and on my right, and my sword is angled from my left towards right, tip up, so it is one of several things between your blade and my thigh, which would slow such a long strike even further, but when I swung my right arm from my right towards center, the center of my shield was about the level of my lower ribs, farther from me than my own swordhand, and the shield obstructed your sword jab, striking between center and grip, and parrying it towards my left, and fouling the tipstrike to my thigh by deflecting the entire sword wide to my left 2)behind my shield, my wrist snaps to my left, sending the tip of my sword at your left wrist*

: says to \|/Haygler\|/:.... He cut His left arm down in a sharp strike to send His sword and arm down and away to His left side to get out the way of Your strike as His left arm was flung out hard worried You would take His f**king hand off in a sport spar (1) He could see You shield high and on Your right side and just laubched off His back right foot to drive His right shield full on flat with His body behind it as He aims to send it flat and forward to try and drive the boss in Your face and pin Your sword to You at the same time and just knock You out cold now nearing the end(2)

== On the sand of the Fighting Pit ==

: says to Joe MacBain Companion of:.... *I leapt laterally to my left as you bulled forward, trying to play matador to your bull as your shield thrust missed wide of my right side, barely scraping the right edge of my shield. 2)from your right flank, and hopefully far enough behind your shield, I pivot around my right foot to spin 90 degrees clockwise overhead view as part of a slashing sword strike from my left towards right, aiming to chop the back of your right shoulder with the returning edge of my blade, as it comes back towards me after passing 90 degrees from momentum of my turning body.*

: says to \|/Haygler\|/:.... He could feel You not there and moved on the ball of His left foot as He passed and missed again to send His right shoulder swinging back and bring the left shoulder forward with the shield in hand to catch the tip of Your blade on the upper rim of My shiled (1) as I came around I just kept moving so I could bring My left arm around to slice the blade low and fast in a stright low arc to try and cut over the tip on Your right outside thigh just below Your shield

== On the sand of the Fighting Pit ==

: says to Joe MacBain Companion of:.... *as you spin 360 degrees, I just get the hell out of the way, leaping at a diagonal angle to my back/left as your shield comes around, avoiding it as it passes in front of me2) and again leaping in the same direction as your sword comes around, so it too passes infront of my body without making contact.*
