==Introduction==
This is the Twelfth Edition of the Middle Kingdom's Armored Combat Fighter and Marshal Handbook. Unlike recent previous editions of the handbook, this edition has combined the Society and Kingdom Handbooks so that only one document is needed to cover the rules of the list in the Middle Kingdom. What you find within these pages reflects a vast body of experience and
knowledge gathered from over 40 years of SCA combat and has been compiled through the efforts of many marshals over the years. For fighters who often travel to foreign events, reading the Society rules and the rules of the Kingdom you are visiting to see the differences is highly encouraged.

As a fighter and/or a marshal it is your duty to know and understand these rules and to teach and share them with the participants you train and authorize. Be aware of changes and updates to these rules and policies and clarifications made to the Kingdom and Society standards. Read The Pale to
stay up-to- date on rule changes. The internet and social media are also good resources; The [https://www.facebook.com/groups/319888711484563/ Midrealm Marshals Facebook page] hosts discussion and clarification of these rules and other Middle Kingdom combat conventions. Of course, nothing replaces going to practice and events and staying active in our sport!

Remember, as you read this handbook and gather at events and practices, we all participate in the SCA to have fun. The fluid nature of what we do makes it very difficult to write a document which can accurately describe every possible situation and give a ruling on its outcome; when faced with a
question that you don't know how to answer choose safety first as there's nothing fun about getting hurt or hurting someone else. Afterwards, find the official answer from a person in the know.

Finally, I would like to take a moment to thank the former Earls Marshal of the Middle Kingdom who continue to support the Midrealm through their efforts as Special Deputy Earls Marshal. I would also like to thank the many people who volunteer their time as marshals throughout the year, allowing us all to enjoy this incredibly unique sport. Last, but not least, I would like to thank Duchess [[Eanor of Amberhall]] and Warder [[Andreas Blacwode|Andrew Blackwood]] for their assistance in editing and laying out this document.

Fight hard, fight often, and I will see you in the list!
Sir Gregoire de Lyon, KEM.
