 +====== Renewed Attacks ======
 +
 +===== Definition – Renewed Attacks =====
 +
 +  * **Remise**: I attack, you parry, and I try to hit you again in the same line as my original attack. That second attempt to hit is called the //remise//.
 +  * **Redoublement**: I attack, you parry, and I try to hit you again in a different line from my original attack. That second attempt to hit is called the //redoublement.//
 +  * **Reprise**: After having lunged, I recover forward and immediately lunge again.
 +
 +LEF will concentrate on the //remise// and //redoublement//, pretty much as a single category of action. Surely the line of the renewed attack is not sufficiently important to force a change of definition.
 +
 +===== Development Notes – Renewed Attacks =====
 +
 +  * Don’t withdraw the arm. Why not, other than it no longer meets the definitions above and becomes a //repise//?
 +  * Movement is either forward or (better?) lateral to create the new angle for the renewed attack.
 +  * Keep the extended arm relaxed and ready to change to the defensive.
 +  * What is the opponent doing? Most likely withdrawing, necessitating a lunge-gather-lunge motion to renew the attack.
 +
 +**Note**: In modern fencing, //redoublements// may include all aspects such as compound and simple attacks, feints, changes of angle, changes of type of attack, actions on the blade, etc. Is any of this visible in the period texts? It is not a part of them or is it assumed from foil/epee training?
