Conventions of Combat
Armor conventions must meet the requirements of the Kingdom the fighter resides in, however weapon and fighting conventions will follow Caidan Rules. See the Caidan Marshallate Publications.
By default, one hay bale is an impenetrable wall, every other hay bale (2, 3, 4 etc.) is what you see is what you get. A few battles will be altered from this, check their specific descriptions.
