Dagorhir combines fast-paced full-contact combat simulation with elements oflive action role-playing. Combat in group melees or between individuals is similar to the battle scenes in movies like Braveheart and Gladiator, with the biggest difference being that Dagorhir "weapons" are well padded to prevent injuries. Dagorhir weapons are constructed to resemble Dark Age/medieval swords, shields, spears, etc. and generally consist of soft foam layers bonded to a rigid core. Combatants may also become involved in grappling/wrestling. Dagorhir rules of combat are strictly enforced by the Heralds (referees) to ensure maximum safety along with maximum playability. As with any outdoor, intense contact sport, the possibility for injury exists. The types and likelihood of injury are similar to those in soccer, rugby, and lacrosse, as in those sports, severe injuries can occur.WAIVER: In consideration of receiving permission from DAGORHIR BATTLE GAMES ASSOCIATION INC.
