For notes section
Not required

2.2.2 in General

Different types of fencing combat cannot face each other in the same bout. For example, Cut and Thrust may not face Standard fencing.
Subsequent rules renumbered
Functional change

Reason
Bouts must operate under a single ruleset; this change prevents a clash. Was not clear previously.

Now
There is no waiting period for obtaining these additional authorisations. This means you may be authorised in Spear or Cut and Thrust immediately after your Standard fencing authorisation.
Functional change

Reason
Clarification following query from participant.
For notes section
June 2023 - Clarification that you can complete multiple authorisations at one practice or event in order to meet prerequisite requirements.

2.2.3 in Prerequisites
Was
You can use a spear if you have a current Rapier Pike or Pole Weapon authorisation under the previous Lochac Rapier Rules.
Now
You can use a spear if you have a current Rapier Pike or Pole Weapon authorisation under prior Lochac Rapier Rules.
Functional change
None. Grammar change only
Reason
Rapier Pike and Pole Weapon appear in earlier rule sets, but not v5 which these rules supersede.
For notes section
Not required.
