Fechtbuch zu Ross und zu Fuss ("Manual on Fencing, on Horse and on Foot"; MS Varia 82) is a German fencing manual created by Joachim Meÿer in 1570-71. The original currently rests in the holdings of the Universitätsbibliothek Rostock in Rostock, Germany. Like many manuscripts from the previous century, the MS Varia 82 is an anthology of treatises from the tradition of Johannes Liechtenauer. Meÿer was in the midst of writing the manuscript when he died, and it was thus never completed.
Much of the content seems to have been sourced from the Codex I.6.4º.3 or a fairly identical manuscript. The two notable exceptions to this are Sigmund Schining ein Ringeck's glosa, which do not match any other extant version, and an anonymous multiweapon treatise toward the back, which also appears in the compilations of Paulus Hector Mair but whose origins are completely unknown. The manuscript concludes with a brief treatise by Meÿer himself on the side sword, which diverges noticeably from his earlier treatises on the weapon and tracks more closely to his dussack teachings.
One final note of interest about this manuscript is that it mentions a Master Pegnitzer, a name that also appears on Paulus Kal's roll of the Society of Liechtenauer[1] and a master from whom no treatise is known to survive. The name is mentioned in reference to a device of the poleaxe, which might indicate the subject of his teachings.
