Marketon Joust: Round 1 Groups E and F

[Tiermann]

Moving on to Group F now we have our first match featuring  Sir Odysseus, Lord Doulichion of Ithica

That would be Ith-a-ca Vanidel

Right, sorry, Sir Odysseus of IthAca

[Tiermann]

his opponent this match will be Sir Paul E Merous

[Tiermann]

Looks like they are both still getting settled in for the match, a miss for both the first run

[Tiermann]

Our second run it looks they both have dropped their shields a bit. Sir Paul takes advantage of it and gets a body hit to Sir Odysseus’ shoulder, Sir Odysseus doesn’t spot the advantage in time and only gets a hit to the top of Sir Paul’s shield.
2 points for Sir Paul, 1 for Sir Odysseus

[Tiermann]

It looks like Sir Odysseus is going to keep his shield well up this run giving Sir Paul a solid target and a one point shield hit. Sir Paul takes a risk keeping his shield low again, but it pays off and Sir Odysseus misses him completely.
That gives the win to Sir Paul E Merous with 3 points to Sir Odysseus of IthAca’s 2

[Tiermann]

The second match for Group F we have Sir Bartholomew Hale leading out

[Tiermann]

And his opponent is Lord Alderran of Avelina

[Tiermann]

It looks like a solid run for both, with Lord Alderran trying to get his lance up over the top of Sir Bartholomew’s shield. He doesn’t quite make it though so we have one point for each.

[Tiermann]

The second run looks a lot like the last one, with a solid shield hit for Sir Bartholomew while Lord Alderran tries to get up over Sir Bart’s shield but not quite making it.
Score tied 2-2

[Tiermann]

Oh! What a solid hit! Sir Bart managed to sneak under Lord Alderran’s shield and unhorses him soundly. Lord Alderran manages a light helmet tap on his way out of the saddle but the unhorsing seals the match. A win for Sir Bartholomew of Hale.

Lord Alderran took a nasty fall there Vanidel, I think he landed right on his helmet.

Some head shaking there as he rises.

Yes but it looks like he is going to be fine.
