Broadsword and targe - how Highlanders fought

A quick introduction to the use of this weapon combination, shot very quickly at Fight Camp 2018. Sorry about the background noise. Support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Lindybeige This was shot at the end of the last day, and I was a bit hoarse from shouting, camping, and beer. When the aircraft overhead gets very loud, I have added subtitles. The targes we are using are the correct diameter, but the real things were a fair bit heavier, and offered some protection against even musketballs.
