Typically the golden standard of HEMA competition, this event format will feature steel longswords with the Nordic rule set. To help raise the bar for both competitors AND judges, fighters should expect that they may very well be asked to judge at some point. Fighters also will NOT be allowed to participate in both the Basic and Advanced events — they may choose only one. Cap of 60 fighters. In the event that a single fighter is fighting in both the Advanced Longsword Elims and the Women’s Mixed Weapons Tournament, IGX staff will ensure participation in both events.
