Just paint 2 lines midway to the center - whoever crosses first gets the attacker designation and the 5 second window during which his opponent's point if such scored would be good only to break the attack and wouldn't be counted. Add to that that the fencers in many situations wouldn't be completely sure who crossed first.
- xen0 5y agoSo, the very first attack gets better protection on their attack than a foil fencer? And simultaneous attacks just look like sabre? And what about subsequent attacks after that? They're just normal where the threat of the counter attack drags us back to fencers not doing anything for 2 minutes? Or what if play is halted and restarted somewhere other than the centre en-garde lines?
- dmoy 5y agoOk yea but then you've just turned epee into foil Which, as a foil fencer in a prior life, I am totally on board with. But I don't see it happening lol.
