We looked at the case of groups who would like to take part in Herja and who practice the reconstitution of elite troops.
We have therefore decided to create a new class to which troops can apply when they register. Below are the rules and exceptions specific to these elite troops
IMPORTANT ! The number of troops belonging to this class is limited to respect the coherence of the event and to ensure that there is something for everyone. For this year, 2 elite troops maximum will be allowed!
- An elite troop must consist of at least 5 people.
- All members of the troop must possess a steel helmet and secure to allow the practice of AMHE. We will monitor this very closely. If the helmet does not comply when checked on the day of the event, the organisers have the right to refuse it.
- All troop members must wear chain mail or lamellar armour.
- These troops, like all the others, must respect the historicity of the event and justify their material using different sources
- Restrictions on weapon ratios do notapply to elite troops.
- The troops agree to potentially fight in an undermanned army to balance the balance of forces.
If even one of these conditions is not met when checked on the day of the event, the troop will no longer be able to claim elite troop status and will have to modify its equipment to comply with the normal ratios for weapons and protection!
