But let us turn to those ropes…in fact, those ropes on the ground represent a typical dungeon of the type that might be seen in a game of Dungeons and Dragons. In a nutshell, the reenactment group would allow people to dress up in level 1 type armour and equipment and effectively "play" the dungeon so they could see how a "real" Knight or character from the game would suffer from the weight.
