held in Moesgaard 2016-07-28

Individual (1 person), Teams (2-5 persons) or Groups (3-40 persons) should aquire the following specific competence areas.

• Position / speed (which movements lead to the desired outcome)
• Technique (which movements lead to the desired outcome)
• perception, decision and communication (what happens and how should I react)
• Power Management (when to use how much energy)
• Mind-Set (Motivation and initiative, how confident are actions carried out, what mood is adopted)

This results in the following matrix of abilities

  • the winner stays on (to train specific techniques )
  • spear hunting (to train specific techniques against two spears)
  • triangle (to defeat an oponent as a team)
• replication of specific situations (no articifial elements)
  • Bottleneck (for bridges, but also as a simulation of sections of a line)
  • Frontiergame (for obstacles)
  • spearcoast (to deal with groups with special weapon combinations)
  • small reinforcments game (for planned integration into groups)
  • border guard (to learn rear guard)
• Motivation for specific situations (artificial elements or rouls create specific motivations and situations)
  • boat game (to motivate individual breakthroughs)
  • coupletherapy (to learn to protect your neighbour)
  • Kill the king (to eliminate specific opponents)
• Orientation im context of the overall situation (no artificial elements)
  • runnerstorm (to orient and communicate within a group)
  • four kings (to use distance and space as specific aspects of the fight)
  • Circle of dishonour (for controlling space and victory strategies for chaos)
