I was so focused on getting this video produced and published, that I neglected to add in a very important thing about the Bico community. I recently attended to Bal Pourpre (AKA The Brown Ball this year). I had an absolutely great time, but most importantly there were SEVERAL people....more people than I would ever have imagined....who came up to me and said "You're that guy on UA-cam" (And one who said "Aren't you that guy from PornHub?"....no...no that wasn't me). I was legitimately floored to find that people actually watch these things. And I have failed you all by not putting out content in a timely fashion. I hope this is the start of changing that, and I thank you all so much for your support!
Still waiting for the next upload haha! A information video about costumes( how many to bring) and other supplies to last the week would be awesome! I'm planning on attending the next GB for the first time and I'm having trouble finding information like that! Keep up the great content thanks for all the work you do!
Are their Japanese themed players at Bicolline, such as samurai?
@@justinadam2316 There absolutely are. There are some well established guilds that follow feudal Japanese traditions and styles.
purple ball :)
@@Draehosek The joke was that that year the ball was held on site and it rained the entire time. It was a mud-fest. :(
So I was a professional armorer for decades and I just got to say please mount your shoulder armor higher up. its easy to just attach it to the shoulder strap on the body armor so it wont drag your clothes down on one side or the other during running or fighting.
Thank you, you are correct. If you read down lower i commented on this already. My assistant connected my shoulders to the wrong points, and she was low on patience at that point so I just went with it for the video.
this was the funniest rule explanation video i've seen for any game
Bicolline stuff has been popping up on my feed a ton. So far every person talking about seems like awesome people! I've always loved fantasy and swords and sorcery anything. My wife makes clothes... 🤔 I'm going to do more research 😊
All hail Jerry, give that man some armor and put him on the front lines.
Jerry is a beast 💪 🤣🤣🤣 lmao I'm dead I love this video
For real!
Hi , I fight a lot a bico ( every campaign ) and you did a great comprehensive combat guide . Perhaps claryfing that piercing hits do not count on the heat but slashes ( halberd and sword ) absolutely count as a hit . Maybe a bit confusing for new players to understand the nuance between trust and strikes
Yeah I was so focused on making it clear that piercing strikes didn't count, that I sort of neglected to make it clear that slashing weapons could target the head.
A review on armstreet armor would be awesome there are so few armor reviews on youtube.
Wahoo! Rule clarity!!
Great Video!
Great video as always, keep up the great content but don't feel like you HAVE to make some as well, we appreciate what you do, even more for newer Bico members like me =)
Sounds fun... seems like a silly low amount of protection added from the armor but i guess tthats what they wanted
In our version you have 6 target areas as well. But if you lose your leg, you can still use your other leg to hop around and use your injured leg to keep balance with the tip of your toes. If you lose both legs, you are dead. If you lose your arm, you will not be able to use it and if a melee weapon would hit your shield that you are still carrying with your injured arm, then you would die. You can continue to use two handed weapons with one arm. You may even attempt to use your bow with one arm and your healthy legs. But if your both arms get injured, then you die. So you can still fight with one injured arm and one injured leg. Hit to the torso is instant death just as well as your head. Basically there is no difference with a head and torso hit unless you are wearing armor.
The armor you are wearing can provide one additional hit point to each target area and can provide only one point to each area. So basically maximum armor points is 6 around your body. Attacked area needs to be fully covered by the armor for it to count. So if you are wearing partial armor and the arrow hits you in a place that is partially covered by armor, but it also hits area that is not covered by armor, then its like the attack hit a gap in your armor and went through so the armor point doesnt protect you. But you could lose armor point from your head and armor point from your torso and be perfectly fine.
We also have healers who can heal injured limbs only. This is done by tying a bandage on their injured limb. Once bandaged limbs cannot be bandaged a second time and if the bandage comes loose because it wasnt properly tied then original injury will be reapplied. Bandages cannot restore lost armor points but your injured limb may still have an armor point remaining, if your armor wasnt hit before you got injured.
If you are dead then you are dead until the end of scenario unless there is a respawn point in the field at that scenario. There may be limited number of respawns per army or there may be limited number of mass respawns where a dedicated person will decide when its the right time to use a mass respawn for all dead players that have arrive in the respawn zone.
Jerry doesn't need armor...he mid maxed his HP and defense
LOL Just watching the Dread Duck be abused!!! Love the video! PS. show us on Gary where the poor lady hurt you. "wait that's obscene." See you at the GB!
A guy in full plate armor holding a balloon man talking about combat... epic
You might've asked for that arrow shot, but I get the feeling your wife didn't hesitate and was more than happy to oblige ;-)
Also good to see you back. Will we see any footage from the Bal Pourpre/Bal Brune?
Yeah she was happy to make that shot. I didn't get any footage at the Bal. :( I had my cameras but the weather was just not cooperative.
Jerry is a beast.
I am both thankful and disappointed about the nutshots, because as amusing as I find them, at least it won’t count if it happens to me. I’ve been wanting to go to biccoline for a bit now, so this will be very good to know in advance. And while you only need a detectable tap to score, is there a rule about being a little rough, as long as no one gets hurt?
"He asked for that" haha
Does being struck with the flat side of the blade count? Or being struck with the non-striking surface of the weapon count?
Technically it does not. Though it's usually impossible for the receiver to determine. I have seen combatants tell others not to take their shot because it was flat or haft. Which is great sportsmanship. But it's fairly rare in the chaos.
Poor Jerry's having a rough day...
What is the maximum pound torque of a bow?
I didn't address this because the answer is complicated. It's calculated based on the maximum extension of the bow, the band of the bow, and the difference between those two numbers. Thus a crossbow would have a higher maximum lb limit than a longbow because the extension stroke would be shorter on the crossbow. The best advice I can give is to refer you to the official link to the homologation site. Note that in the their rule of thumb is this 'If the bow fires more than 30m, it likely isn't legal' bicolline.org/guide-participant/homologation/
Serious question- where did you get that belt? I've been looking for one like that and CANNOT for the life of me, find one.

This guy still around? I keep waiting on some updates.
One might say I am still around. Just haven't had much to add. Perhaps it's time to do so.
Where did you buy your armor and why don't the arm's fit you?
It is custom armor from Armstreet, and the arms fit fine. However prior to production of this video they weren't tied onto the correct arming points, and I didn't have the heart to correct my 'assistant'. Since I wasn't wearing it for anything that required movement I just left them as they were.
Oh that's the dark wolf chest awesome. Thanks for the reply great videos
@@TheJabberWockyy It's actually precursor to the Dark Wolf armor. When Armstreet released the Dark Star armor I asked them to make a set out of the same material for a male body. So this was the prototype for that. And I don't know if I should do a review of their armor, because I'm very biased. There aren't many bad things I can say about it. I'll give it some thought!
"jesus christ jerry..." XD
so what if you are wearing leather over chainmail
Armor does not stack and is not cumulative. It's simply the highest value of the area that is struck.
I think it's pretty badass I would like to have my own community and I think I know how I would want the rules to be I do like realism. I just don't like the rule you get hit in the leg you have to get down and stay only pivot when in reality your adrenaline would be active sure you may not be using that leg the same depending where it got shot or what it got hit by. I mean mad respect for all larping communities they are amazing.
Realism would be that you'd very likely die from it. The femoral artery is pretty important. Hopping around is not terribly realistic. Feel free to do what you want to do in your own game, though (though hopping around also tends to not be very safe).
@@roguishpaladin2921 that's not what I said and you wouldn't be hopping around you must not know how armor actually works first off swords don't pierce plate armor by no means they can only penetrate where there is no armor. As for cutting you or stabbing you yes you can bleed out terribly fast but at the same time there's times people's adrenaline keeps them fighting and alive sure not for a very long time but still long enough to fight with everything they have. I've seen plenty of people who were shot over 20 times and still charged and managed to kill the other person sure they still died cause they bleed out. But anyways the full metal combat sport is where it's at! I just won't have it to where if your knee touches the damn ground you're out nope you keep fighting until one of you give up or receive enough points to win. All the safety rules applied. But you're able to fully customize your armor long as it is with in guidelines. And there will be castle siege scenarios, skirmishes, capture the flag, free for all etc.
Is it ok to strap your shield on your back
Yes it absolutely is.
@@thedreadduck ok thanks
Jesus Christ jerry lmfao
He just won't die!
Sheild bash illegal?
Absolutely completely and utterly illegal. Shield to shield contact is mere contact only and no "force". (YMMV on pushing but it's technically not legal) No bashes, charges, rams, slams, or body checks.
Those pauldron's don't seem to be doing their intended purpose. But I guess in bioclline, it doesn't matter. Aesthetically it hurts my eyes.
I appreciate your pedantry here actually, but it was addressed in earlier comments. As you might imagine I cannot attach my own pauldrons, and my 'assistant' used the wrong attachment points. For the purpose of the video it was deemed 'good enough'.
arrow head shots should count lol
Although they 'should', there is a very good reason why they do not. The vast majority of minor injuries result from arrow strikes to the face. There is no requirement to wear face protection (though an argument could be made for why there should be) and so the compromise is simply to disallow headshots.
@@thedreadduck I assumed that was the reason especially with so many people
Jerry should train BJJ
