I was also wondering about the melee. The last one still mounted wins, so the object is to unhorse the others, but broken bones and concussions are expected. The knights use blunted swords, axes and maces without spikes; but it's still not a safe sport. Would this rely on Combat or Combat Sport skills?

An idea I'm toying with is to let the combat sport skills have better knockback. I think it could be fun if the best knight in war wasn't necessarily the best knight in torney. It might even be plausible if you view the combat sport skills as unhorsing skills more or less.
