Minimal Melee Combat

From Gladiorial contests to Medieval knights duking it out, man-to-man combat with swords and shields had been the primary form of combat for a thousand years. The advent of fantasy role playing games and the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) has made it popular in the gaming hobby.

Minimal Melee Combat is a simple game designed to create a feeling for combat between to combatants armed with swords. It is not designed to be an accurate simulation and make no attempts at this. It is a quick and easy game of simple hack 'n slash.

Put your armor on, pick up your sword and shield, and enter the fray.
