Fights are over, come here discuss and ask shit about the sport. Also hype for the upcoming IMCF World Championship.

>What is Battle of Nations?
The Battle of the Nations is an international historical medieval battles world championship, first held in 2009, in Kharkiv, Ukraine and held in Europe, in April, every year since.
It is a full contact competition using metal weapons and a standardized list of rules. National teams compete in several standard events, with all being full contact - no stage reenactment battles are included.

You are right.

Which leaves me confused. That other anon said they fielded 22 guys only for the last fight and not for the others, so it had to be intentional?
And if it was, surely they'd know people would realise? How did you notice Russia?

My assumption is they were switching some fighters due to injuries/exhaustion and made a mistake with the numbers. It woud be extremely dumb to do it on purpouse in the finals as the match is sure to be recorded whole.

Good point. Shame, doubt they know this Gold is going to be taken away from them. Their first in what was it, 8 years?

How did he notice? Seems such an odd thing to spot. I had to go back a few times and find the right frame before I could do a proper count. I wonder if this extra fighter thing happens in other fights, seems like an easy mistake to make

Is there a Dutch team? And if yes, does it suck?
>>
>>74307657
Miscalculations happen, I've been in several cases where the fight has started with 5vs6 or 5vs4 by mistake. In bigger fights that shit is just bound to happen. The marshals should always count the number of fighters before a fight but it doesn't change the fact that Ukraine basicly won by cheating, even though unintentionally.

I'm honestly interested how they will solve this. Ukraine might get disqualified or they will put the blame on the judges. There's even the slight possibility of a rematch at a later date somewhere in eastern europe.

>tfw everyone was so happy that Ukraine won
I hope they don't get disqualified, and that they get to keep the Gold or do a rematch.
>>
>>74308392
>I hope they don't get disqualified
I agree. In that case our guys will get a motivation. Russian commentator said that they had not been training in one team, just in their oun clubs. That's why we won 5x5 and lose the royal 21x21, where command work is especcially inportent.

>>74308086
I can't imagine 5v5 could start like that without anyone noticing the error. It should be immediately obvious when you suddenly have an extra person or more enemies than you can handle.
21 is a different business, one guy more or one guy less it's still a massive mob and you can't assess its size without intentionally counting.

Whether it was intentional or not on Ukraines part it's still a massive fuck up by the referees who either can't count or missed a fighter slipping in, or even both.

Are they aware at least of this? Were there any statements, or it's just some rambling on Chinese caricature forum?
>>
>>74306461
what a way to fall
>>
>>74309964
It's usually at smaller events with a tighter schedule and fights rarely go on for long before a marshal stops the fights and re-sets the fight. But it happens when there's a bunch with dudes with identical tabards and similar helmets.

I think it was an honest mistake on both parts. For what I understood, the russians have issued a complaint to the judges.
