| * **Riposte**: On a successful parry -- and only on a successful parry -- the defending fencer may strike a riposte. This may be a cutting strike to the attacker's arm (if playing with beginners and/or low gear) or a thrust to any opening (better for the more experienced and the geared up). Success here is defined for the defender as landing the riposte and for the attacker as parrying the riposte in turn. | * **Riposte**: On a successful parry -- and only on a successful parry -- the defending fencer may strike a riposte.

| | * Since the method studied for off-hand weapons emphasises the off-hand weapon's use as a control tool, this variant modified the **riposte** version above in this way. On a successful parry of the opponent's attack with the sword, if the defender controls it -- and only if the defender controls it -- with the off-hand weapons, are they permitted to riposte. |
