History
The High Fantasy Society is a LARP that split off from Amtgard in 1990, based primarily around Barad Duin, which was an early Grand Duchy, and some say the second kingdom of Amtgard in Austin, TX. It has a few other chapters mostly in central Texas. Some HFS players turn up at Amtgard events.
Rules
The rules are similar, clearly having a common origin. The Original HFS Rulebook was adapted from the Amtgard rulebook V5 by Aganar and Drakknar of the Chosen, but modifications made to both the HFS rules, and Amtgard's have made variations more distinct. It is still fairly easy for many players to adapt to the differences in rules without too much confusion.
Today
Many players in the Austin area and some around Dallas play both games, There is even a Company called PGXIII that has members in both groups.
