Why do 1st Century Roman groups avoid combat
#2
IDK, here, in Hungary, we do full contact with normal weapons. Stabbing is dangerous? That's what your shield is for. Slashing is dangerous? That's what your helmet and armor is for.


I think it has something to do with this western culture of not being agressive even in childhood (boy do I loved settling arguments with fighting), and this air of tolerance. In this case combat reenacting can be seen as hateful, militaristic.
