I teach honourable fencing and chivalrous combat.
Yet somehow, I raised a dagger fighting rogue, that can beat swordsmen with her dagger.
your dagger fighting rogue just grabbed the opponents swors blade with their fucking hand. your dagger fighting rogue lost
@the-rat12 wrong. It's a technique. And seen across centuries of manuscripts for fighting that recommend it as an action:
I.33...
Fiore...
Leckuchner...
Talhoffer...
And those are just the BloΓfechten examples, in Harnischfecten, grabbing the sword is a recommended action to gain control.
So no, my squire had perfect control over the sword in that action: she parried upward, then seized the blade above the cross guard where it had no room to slip in her grasp, ensuring she wouldn't get cut.
