I'm not sure what a sack fight is - do you fill a sack with straw and beat each other with it until one leaves the circle?

Let the dueling be with practice swords. You made a good case for it, Foley.

What do we WANT in the task-path? Start saying what it will be, friends!

Stone throwing should not be confused with shot put, which began when cannons were invented. That would be anachronistic. I could imagine that there might be heavy stone LIFTING. But stone throwing ought to be a distance and accuracy thing, I think.
