Hit Locations
In Amtgard combat, a player's body is divided into five ‘Hit Locations’ which may be struck to inflict damage or effects in combat: Left Arm, Right Arm, Left Leg, Right Leg, and Torso.
- Arms: From the tips of the fingers to the shoulder socket.
- Legs: From the tips of the toes to bottom of the buttocks in the back; the crease between the hip and each leg in the front; and just below the hip bone on either side.
- Torso: Everything that isn’t an arm or a leg, including the groin, up to the vertical rise of the neck.
- (Illegal) Head and Neck: The head and neck are illegal targets for all Amtgard combat. Strikes to these locations will never count as a hit, nor will they be able to inflict any damage or effects. Players are not allowed to intentionally use their head or neck to block incoming attacks. If a player strikes an opponent in the head or neck and gains a combat advantage from it, they should stop fighting and allow their opponent to recover. If necessary, rewind to the point of the illegal strike and resume the fight.
