The ground was wet, and it was a very cold day :)
Some advise to the channel, continue with a series which demonstrates these medieval fighting manuscripts using this video as a ref, good video quality, production and demonstrations. Keep it up 👏🏾
Some advice for yourself, don't give unasked for advice

Some advice for you, people don't need permission to give an advice, grow a brain.
Nicely done. Thank your very much. As someone who has done this for several decades, this "felt" right.
This is better than what I was looking for. Not only do you present the wards in an easy to follow format, but the production quality is stellar. Thank you for this contribution to TH-cam.
I'd seen the paintings before but had no idea what they meant
Thanks
Years ago I made a card game about individual armed combat and used this reference plus a few others for details on guards, moves and defences. To this day I still haven't seen any game, PC, RPG or boardgame, that treats choosing the right opening stance as an important part of fighting.
what about Kingdom Come: Deliverance?
@@brummbar4468я бы не сказал, что начальная стойка там имеет значение. Также, как и дистанция между тобой и противником. Отразить атаку противника можно буквально из любого положения, главное вовремя нажать на кнопку. Что касается твой атаки и проведения связок ударов и комбинаций, то и тут стойка играет второстепенную роль. Чтобы эффективно начать комбинацию, желательно будет в момент перед этим поменять стойку с любой нынешней на нужную. Короче, хоть в KCD боевая система и интересная, но это не подходящий пример.
Другое дело - Hellish quart. В этой игре фехтование куда более продуманное и сложное. Там стойки действительно имеют значение, каждая из них имеет свой потенциал. + они работают вместе с дистанцией. Дистанция там тоже важна.
Надеюсь, переводчик не подведёт)
A clubmate and I started doing i33 at my club now too and while we are not completly agreeing with you guys in some details, the raised eyebrow in secunda 0:55 is just great and will be honored!
HOW AM I ONLY JUST NOW FINDING THIS?! Awesome work!
I cannot say how much this warms my Michigan heart.
hell yeah! Im from Michigan. Go Green!!
Great demonstration and choice of music, brothers.
An excellent presentation. All techniques were well demonstrated and I intend to return to this presentation often. Great choice of soundtrack.
Good job. Please more of it! Greetings from germany
Excellent. I love this. Also fantastic outfits. :)
Thank you, and well done.
This was amazing!
Great Video! Was searching for I.33 stuff on youtube and came across your channel. I live in Rochester Hills, might hafto make the trip down to Livonia one of these weekends.
I really enjoyed this video. I have been interested in I.33 and I have seen other similar videos and yours looks and sounds great. Well done. I would like to learn some of this myself and will have to see if I can find something near me.
Super ! 👍😀
Great video! Can we see fifth ward from the other side?
Halleluja!
Excellent presentation. Keep it up. :-)
Did you also do the secondary, Obsesseo guards / wards from MS I.33 ? I'd love to see those in your interpretation.
At first glance, stance at 1:10 looks bad, basically flat footed and on one leg. However when pausing/rewatching, his back leg is bent at the knee so its not so bad. In future, I recommend you film with the knees/legs fully in view
What's your take on 4th ward, the one after the ward in your timestamp? I can't picture any circumstance where you'd want to really stay in that position
Noice
Any chance of showing us your interpretation of 5th Guard from the other side?
Honestly, I had to contort my hand pretty awkwardly to get the blade to be on the correct angle, at the correct height, to match up with the illustration.
When I’m sparring using this guard, I drop my hand much lower, near my belt.
I suspect this will vary a bit from person to person, with different heights, body types and levels of wrist flexibility.
Good luck!
What parts of Michigan is your association located? I'm in the UP, Marquette area, and we're regrettably starved of any HEMA activities up here. I've done epee fencing with my dad growing up and some saber fencing in college. I've always felt fencing was more akin to LARPing 🤮 compared to HEMA.
We’re in Metro Detroit.
Olympic sport fencing or kendo training can make good HEMA fighters, if applied in the right ways to the source material! Don’t lose heart! 👍
There's at least two clubs in upper michigan; both are college clubs with one at NMU and one at LSSU.
@nateskinner97 I'm in Marquette so I'll take a look into it. Good lookin' out
Where did you get the swords and bucklers???
Purpleheart Armory
Great job men. And now...you have insulted my wife. Honor demands a sword and buckler contest! To arms.
Oooooh, I want those shoes that the guy at the end has on! Where did you get them dude?
They’re from a company called Viking Leathercrafts!

Me encantó este video espero q suban muchos más, excelente canal lo máximo
The footwork in the art looks very different than that demonstrated. Do you believe the artist took license?
Honestly, we’re not entirely content with the footwork we demonstrated in this video. At some point we might go back and reshoot an addendum video with what more we’ve learned in the time since we’ve filmed this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@michiganmedieval I enjoyed it nonetheless. Someone was claiming they walked differently because of their lack of supportive shoes. It was their explanation behind the seemingly unusual stances.
I'm in Michigan, where is this located
Thank you for your interest!

Saxon vibes.⚔🛡
No reason to train form on these if you believe the actual manual:
Note how in general all fencers, or all men who hold a sword in hand, even when ignorant in the art of fencing, make use of these seven guards, on which we have seven verses:...
¿Que tratado es?
MS i.33
Why standing on the toes...doesn't makes sense at all in fighting
That's how people walked in the Medieval period, hard leather soled shoes didn't exist, so walking with the ball of your foot first helped to prevent you from committing your balance to an unstable or unsafe foothold.
@mr. happy Nope. See my earlier comment. Spend some time walking in medieval footwear and you will understand.
@mr. happy the information I was citing is from this video, but it is listed as outdated so perhaps not everything is correct. th-cam.com/video/EszwYNvvCjQ/w-d-xo.html
i doubt the stance should be taken out of the book too literal.
look like deadly mistakes too me.
i like to go for knee cuts n thrust tho...
Halleluja!
