Greetings unto the denizens of the area of Angels. I am seeking other combatants interested in training as a unit. This would involve several footwork drills, shield work, and just learning to fight as a group rather than as a collection of independant fighters.
Why? Because really, wouldn't it be spiffy to show up at an event and be able to work together and form a shield wall like when the Myrmidons stormed the beach in Troy? Or the Spartans slaughtered the first wave of Persian infantry in 300?
Ideally, the unit would train in a variety of styles for a variety of groups including boffer, shinai, rapier, steel, and heavy. Emphasis in training and practice would be at the discretion of the whole group(and what gear is available).
This is just to see how many people are interested, because this really wouldn't be feasible with less than about 8 people. Oh, and I'm no expert at this so any other input if(once) this gets off the ground would be appreciated.
