Worse than non-gracious cheering (consorts on the sidelines jumping up and down and clasping thier hands - YEAH!) are the audible sighs and groans from the crowd. I remember a crown finals where the second fight was decided by the how loud the crowd groaned when they 'thought' they saw something. Th...

Bwhahah! I saw Master Guido run odds on an Atlantian crown once...funny stuff. It's all in jest, this stuff. Might not be your cup of tea. Or you might need to remove the stick from your buttocks...either way. DA, "I am shocked, SHOCKED to find that gambling is being run in this establishment!!!"

Ice Castles is not a major tourney, nor is it a singles Tourney. Add the new Tournement of Chivalry to that list and you have it. Alot of the old tournies either don't happen or aren't presitigous anymore like Silver Chalice, or Storvik Novice/Unbelts, Feast of Hearn, etc. Basicaly you have Crowns, ...

It has plates for kidneys/floating ribs, and a sternum pad. It also has a pocket for a spine pad, but you have to order the plate seperate.

that is the product, however I suggest that you buy it somewhere else. Arraydd, Colin and I all paid about $60 for them and now you can find them for about $30. You will need to either make a backplate or order another chest plate as they don't come with one. (I think theres is too small anyway to b...

The East won all three 'field' battles (if you can call them true fields with that bridge in the way) in a row, for 1 Point. We had them outnumbered too. They next won the first bridge (when they were also outnumbered) but Atlantian won the next two, for 1 Point. Then came the stupid lunch break.......

I have to take it along this weekend in case I do a photo shoot, but afterwards I will try taking it out again and screwing with it.

I think the buttspike rule is there, Eric for freaks like Duke Ragnarr that sometimes like to fight with what is basically a Madu, a short spear/stick with two pointy ends.

I would not suggest putting a thrusting tip on the end of a 9' spear. It would be a waste of time.
