hi guys
sorry if this is in the wrong place but not sure where else to post it
im trying to work out how to create a workable dueling system for a larp, i know what i want but not how to make it workable in larp terms, i want the characters to be able to duel for honor or other reasons along set rules that im trying to put in place but the actual mechanics of how to run them i don’t know as i don’t play with weapons like many other larpers so how is the best way to handle this/ write it up. how do you work out who wins the duel do you simply go first blood based on who is the better fighter with the larp weapons, plus or minus any benefits/penalties the characters have individually that might come into play or do you decide you will win beforehand and then roleplay it out?
i want combat to be apart of my larp but it’s not something ive ever played with as a player so any and all help would be greatly apreciated
