I rather like the sallet myself, with a barred visor that one can lift up for refreshment in between bouts. Of course this requires me to save money and actually purchase said helm. I currently have a standard spangenhelm myself, that was hand made by someone back home some time ago, and I inherited it by way of roundabout purchasing. It's terribly heavy, but it does the job.


What would suit a heavier sort of fighting, like German-style fencing?

'Fencing' and 'heavy' do not parse for me, but only due to my limited experience doing SCA hardsuit. See, the ones you mentioned don't give me enough breathing room/vision range. I get feeling all claustrophobic. That said, I know folks who use them, and swear by them - most common was the great helm or sugarloaf iirc.

Yes, but unless we're asked, or have a very, very, VERY good reason for rule-breaking that involves TG's, we have no reason to look. So I don't care what you TG to one another as it is very likely none of my damn business.

German style fencing was using a longsword with two hands instead of a sword and a shield. Focused on heavy, crushing blows to where the weak points would be in Late-Medieval/Renaissance heavy armour.

No, just knock them side ways so they crash into something.
Head on would be a joust, not a race.

Ah. That could be fun, assuming that you don't hurt your head doing it.

If you're going for more period-specific and authentic, I'd look up some research on the area and time period and style used, tbh. I focused more on the Italian due to my persona and all, and it was at the time, Renaissance to boot. Of course now I'm intrigued.
