#Combat should begin with the opponents at a reasonable distance apart to approach at their desired speed. (e.g. Less space is needed for walk than canter.)
#Lay on is called once all riders have signaled they are ready.
#In order to be a good witness and answer as accurately as possible, you need as clear a view as possible. You need to strike a balance between getting closer to see better and staying out of the way of horse and riders.
#In some kingdoms, and/or specific tournaments, the marshal may be asked to guide combatants through salutes. This is commonly done in an early round in a tournament. This is also good opportunity to ask whether the combatants are satisfied with their opponent’s arms and armor. The salutes are usually:
##Salute to the Crown
##Salute to their inspiration
##Salute to the crowd
##Salute to their opponent
##When the combatants are ready, call "lay on" (or its equivalent) loudly and clearly.
#After the fight ends, ensure the combatants are satisfied with the outcome.
##Ask the combatants if they have any questions for each other.
##Ask the combatants if they have any questions for the marshals.
##Ask the marshals if they have any questions.
