Very impressive... I was told it was not possible to get steel to take color like that of bronze or brass... there is a blacksmith's trick, heat the steel red hot& brush with a brass bristle brush, which will give the steel a brass color. That sounds almost like its plating the steel with the b...

Hell. I take shots from my own sword if my block still hits my head hard enough. Same here. Sir Ix clobbered me with a headshot once in that fashion. I easily got my sword up for the block, but it knocked my sword back so hard into my head, I took it as a kill. I had not been hit that hard all day!

I've seen quite a few heater-wielding Vikings, and actually very few with round shields.
