Harvest Massacre's Bear Pit fighting!

Postby Kyrax » Tue Sep 21, 2010 10:55 am

One of our lovely ladies, Wren, took some great video of our Bear Pit fighting at Mallenorod's Harvest Massacre this past weekend (9/17-9/19). I've posted the first two clips... more to follow.

In the Pit with Mallenorodrim are two fighters from Sword Coast who made the long trip north to join us. Not pictured are a bunch of the Belegrim from our neighboring realm in San Ramon, CA, Adelbrand, who made the trip to Harvest Massacre on Friday and then later on Saturday.

For those who haven't played this, we start off with a long story in a bad russian accent telling of how a village trapped a marauding bear in a pit and then took it on in single combat.

Two players enter the pit and when someone dies, another fighter steps in and the fighting continues. Those standing on the sidelines can swing into the pit and kill a fighter and take their place.

This makes for a fast moving fight in small groups, constantly feeding new fighters into the mix as the ones in the pit die off.

Enjoy!

We do the same battle, but without the kill them and switch, but still allowing the sideline guys to kill people in the middle. It teaches people to move on the diagonals and not to retreat all the time.

Alright I'm doing this to be nice because there is thread necro witch-hunters about.

Try not to give two word replies or even reply to things at all unless its very pertinent if the post is more than a month or so old.

Even more pertinent the older they are.
