I'm trying to envision different scenarios where I could discard bow, draw sword/buckler and trade hearty blows in joy, but can't really see it happening if I'm being run down. If I'm furiously backpedaling, I just can't wrap my head round discarding my bow in a safe manner. As that seems one of th...

Who do you think are the best lefties in the known world? I am from AEthelmearc (and a lefty myself). While we have some very talented left handed fighters, we seem to have fewer than some of the other kingdoms (notably Atlantia). Also, how do you think the best lefties match up against the best ri...

There are very few camping events. If you are not willing to travel far, you may only encounter one or two per year. Generally, summer event season is spent preparing for Pennsic, but for some reason that doesn't involve much camping. Shrug. -Donasian. Don, since he's darn near the center of the Mi...

I have in the past used thrust and throw javelins and throwing axes. The difference between these ans CA is (as some earlier stated) is range.

Hal, I need to check, but (norse-wise) each style of spear has it's own name (ie, thrown spear, slashing spear, etc.).

Marcus, welcome to the Mid! Sternfeld has some pretty good practices. You are not too far from Shadowed Star, home of one of the bestest melee units anywhere (Darkmoon). Along with the list Leo stated, there is also Baronial Border War on Father's Day weekend in Andelcrag. Rose Tourneies are somethi...

He has both articulated and 1 piece available, several sets of each I believe.

And he's trustworthy, too

Leo Medii , I’m not going to cheat someone, because I want to sell more products here. Knowing Leo, he's just watching out for one of his own. There are and have been too many people who have gotten taken (I know I have) Hope to see more of your stuff, and hope you are able to build a solid r...

I laugh, and sometimes sing (horribly off key), usually Jimmy Buffet songs trandlsted into Old Norse.

Hey I am just glad I made somone's list. Incidentally, Brannos tends to kill me before I have the chance to notice his pretty smile. I remember your lid from 8 or 10 years back, when I first started.

I didn't want to derail the other topic. We had a thread listing the best in various forms a while back, I'd like to see what's going on with these forms now.
