I'd say we should not go to a swordplay... it's just a bit too dangerous. But anyway you wish.

Why not change that to spears, one of the Rohirrim's chief weapons, and one in which all the men would have training?
A good idea.


Btw. as I now see things have moved forwards quite a bit I'm not so sure whether we should now bring on anything about the kids as it would be going backwards in time in any case. So maybe we just stick to the present of the story? I'm pretty confident the "games" will allow us some opportunities to write them back in interesting enough fashion as they will surely compete more seriously than the adults...
