"How do I push a fighter over (hay bale) of a bridge?"
Well, let's start with the limitations:
1. NO haft/shield on body contact - you can't use your polearm or shield to physically bash someone in the body to push them over a hay bale. You need to contact your opponent's shield/weapon to be able to move them in any sufficient manner.
2. You CAN NOT drop your weapon (i.e.-if you're a spear or polearm fighter) to use both hands to either grasp a shield/polearm/body part and manipulate it to get the person over the bridge. Why? A) As soon as you've lost your weapon in such a manner, you're considered "helpless" and can not be struck (look at the handbook). B) Grasping your opponents shield is against the rules (handbook again).
What can you do? Use your weapon/shield to leverage against your opponent's shield/weapon to get the better position and toss 'em off. Sure, inevitably there's going to be some body contact between weapon/shield and body because everything is moving. Just do it legally.

Please feel free to pass this information on to anyone or any lists you think would be
interested:
On Saturday, June 27th, the Barony of Sternfeld is happy to welcome one and all join us for a day of playing at our annual Krannert demo. We put on a demonstration for the city parks to help pay for our fighter practice site. However, we've found that it's fun to just invite all of our neighbors in to play for the day. If you are not going to Border Raids, come see us instead.

Galleria di Magli is a very nice gallery of photos of an ultimate smithy's shop (it appears old and unused now) that Master Gwylym located on the Internet. Enjoy!

Personal commentary:
I got to thinking about this since I have taken a weight training class for credit at the local community college.
One of the things the instructor did the first night of class was a Body Composition Analysis using an inductance meter. This measures the body fat, lean muscle tissue, bone and water in the body. (http://sportsmedicine.about.com/od/fitnessevalandassessment/a/Body_Fat_Comp.htm)
Body Composition Analysis uses bioelectric impedance to assess body fat percentage. For men, about 5% body fat is considered healthy while on women, 12% is considered healthy. Whereas men with over 25% body and women with over 32% body fat are at risk of illness and disease related to being over-weight.

Heaters!
Norman Kites!
Ovals!
Rounds!
Give me pattern and I will make it!
Anything that is roughly 24x32 is only 40.00 (normally 60.00) . Centergrip cut out as well if needed...
I currently am cutting all this out of 6061 T6 .100 but if you would like premium stuff I can get that as well.

by William Holland
The object of a fight is to hit your opponent before he can hit you. Easier said than done.
Martial arts instructors can teach you how to improve your timing, balance, mobility and endurance, but how in the world can they teach you how to hit faster than your opponent? Speed is an inherent quality, and difficult, if not impossible, to teach.
Or is it?
In Bruce Lee's fighting method jeet kune do, the development of speed is not only addressed, it is dissected and approached in a variety of ways.

The time has come to select candidates to be considered to become the next Baron and Baroness of the Barony of Roaring Wastes.
Our reigns as the third Baron and Baroness will come to an end at Kingdom 12th Night, in January, 2010. While we continue to enjoy our time on the Wastrel Thrones, and intend to strongly lead the Barony and fully support the upcoming reign of Eikbrandr & Runa, the process of succession must be performed in an orderly manner so that the next Baron and Baroness are ready to serve at the appointed time.

The Sword Typology of Alfred Geibig An article by Christopher L. Miller.
The establishment of typologies, systems for the classification of objects into groups according to traits held in common, is fundamental to the modern field of archeology. While it is very important to keep in mind that, when dealing with the ancient world such systems are modern impositions, detailed analysis of archaeological trends would be all but impossible without this vital shorthand. The benefits of typological analysis go far beyond convenience of reference: typologies aid in analysis, in establishing patterns of use, and in determining technological chronology. ...see full article at http://www.myarmoury.com

Fortunately, we will be able to hold the usually scheduled Baron Wars activities at this year's venue, Carter Park... <More here>
