Re: (TFT) Polyhedral Weapon Heresy

["Edward Kroeten" <ekroeten@farmersagent.com>]

   Epee is easiest to understand first one to land gets the point, if
simultaneous both get a point.  Foil and Sabre have right away rules i.e. if I
attack you can counter attack but if I hit you I get the point.  Sabre and
Foil is an easy transition, actually Peter Westbrook a whole bunch of times
national sabre champ and 3rd at the 84 Games fenced foil in a team event and
won all his bouts against big time competition.

       My very limited experience with fencing (I was a good amateur for about
three months before life got in the way) was definitely that I preferred foil
and saber... is that a weird combination? Seems like epee is most popular
though foil is most common.
