WoW, Great news indeed, congratulations and well done. May the grass you walk upon always be green, your sky's always be blue, and your sails always be full. God (Odin) smiles on the Norse. Thorstenn, My Princess and I want to thank everyone for their well wishes and positive support both here on th...

Should we require all Knights to buy there own ho...

There was a beer comercial years ago that said something about Twins...... Thees are the Beer Goggle Twins

This picture is why the French need your help!!!!!

I thought he looked like a clown. If he were a member of the Chivalry I would be embarrassed for him.

Laziness is not an excuse

Thorstenn

By the rules they can be made legal, but I would not trust My hands to them. Thorstenn. for SCA fighting the fingers do not have to bottom out on the rattan. i own a pair of these and with a layer of padding and the gloves sewn in they should be ok for sca fighting. I have shown these to Sir Cedric ...

You have a bar you have all the leverage so pick a day and a time that is best for your camp. My choice would be Sunday after opining ceremonies around 8 or 9 pm. Unfortunately you cant make everybody happy but we do try. Thorstenn. Come on guys, lets do this. I'm in a big camp that has a bar. Lets ...

How about the sitting royals (King's and Prince's) of the attending Kingdom's After all We do help set the pace for our kingdoms right Duke Mittion and myself will be at Pennsic as will HRH Seth of Meridies. There are many fine folks left off the list. Maybe it could find its way into the royal pack...

Thorstenn

I want to check them out as well, sounds good for SCA and Airsoft, its really hot in all that gear Thorstenn. I do not have pictures yet. This is a supplier making gear for the military and sports. You can see them and pick one up at Pennsic. You do not have to pay till PEnnsic. I have 20 on order r...

Sir Ceddric of Dorchester will not be fighting this year, he is recovering from surgery.

I have heard nothing from Sir Nigel about me fighting with the French. I spoke with him at Gulf Wars about it. I believe I gave my Email to him at the deed.

Thorstenn.

Thorstenn

Could you Email me a few pic's of both helms.

Thanks,

How often do you practice, and when you do, do you practice hard to work on your endurance. Thorstenn. P.S. I like the sword your squire made, real nice. I had Gatorade cut with water, plain water and a gulp of pickle juice at the end of my day. I thought I did everything right. I just think I was t...

Thorstenn

We all had soooooooo much fun, thank you all.

To all of you that came out and endured the bad weather, but made the 34 hours of drive worth it, We Thorstenn & Zephyrine salute you.
Vivat!!!!!!

Whats the weight of the shirt ?

Thorstenn.

Thorstenn

Ok folks there are simple solutions here. Each Kingdom/Barony forms a Water bearers Guild. All events purchase water/Gatorade and supplies and the volunteers from the Guilds distribute that to the populace. All legal. Nothing is done yet, send letters to the BOD. The BOD is just doing what lawyers t...

Thorstenn

I understand. But like you said train evenly and reap the rewards. You fight or you dont, you train or you dont. Also do every drill with both hands. Thorstenn. I agree with some of it, but I would add that she should learn to fight like a fighter. Not a girl fighter, just a fighter. Men need to thr...

Thorstenn

Its usually in the fort, not sure what day though.

"Amat victoria curam."
Victory favors those who take pains.

To me its a work ethic.

Thorstenn.

Thorstenn

Good point, This would make for a great discussion at Pennsic on the field. Would you be in attendance.

Is the shot your describing a partial lunge ?

Ether way I would like to meet you in person at some point. Pennsic is fun, making new friends is better.

Thorstenn.

Thorstenn

Unfortunately most of the people I see making it an issue are female

Thorstenn

True but the teaching of the foundation has to start some where. It takes the whole package to make it work. You are working on the advanced theory I hit harder when I wear cleats than I do when I wear my period shoes. For me the first and last part of my body force is in my legs, but I break it dow...

Thorstenn

I'll tell her that, just make it easier on yourself and change your heraldry to a bull's eye lol, All in good fun my friend. after all you are a Buchanan you cant be all that bad....... Thorstenn. Linda Archer = Sir Erika Bjornsdottir of Trimaris Thorstenn. Like she knows anything about CA...

Thorstenn

I agree with some of it, but I would add that she should learn to fight like a fighter. Not a girl fighter, just a fighter. Men need to throw with there hips period. So do lady fighters. IMO there should be no sexism in training My wife trains like I do.

YMMV.

Thorstenn

Thanks JP, I will contact Baldar tonight and get the scoop. Now go win your Crown Thorstenn. Your Highness, I've seen the report on the failures they are seeing from the new batch, and while it sucks for Baldar, the problem seems genuine to me. If you'd like a copy of it (although I hope it will be ...

Thorstenn

Duke Baldar has gone through great expense in research, development, and production of several blunt types. Only to have them outlawed. We shoot a lot of archery in Trimaris and I have never heard of a single failure with his products in Trimaris. His Grace is very thorough in his concern for they s...

Calontir did a fantastic job at Gulf Wars last year The ravine battle was the best I have ever seen them perform, but all around they did Great. Thorstenn. So when everyone starts talking about "great this and that" Where does Calontir fall? Does Calontir rank among other listed "unit...

I just got two words for ya.... Move back Come back in December well have some eggnog for ya Barf...nog...barf...chalange...yuk..... Thorstenn. Highness- It would be an honor to fight for Baroness Genvieve, indeed! (Ceddie is my knight!) Both Peder and Crimthann of Fid-Nemed have great ideas. I won ...

Thorstenn

Oh, and fighting for a young lady is something you and they will remember forever. Bring a rose or two its awesome.

Thorstenn,

Thorstenn

Both Peder and Crimthann of Fid-Nemed have great ideas. I won a Baronial championship in Oldenfeld while fighting for the Baroness who is a friend of mine. The best part was when I asked her to sit with me as my honored consort at feast. Michelle was torn on where to sit, it was great, even better w...

Thorstenn

His Grace covered it all I think.

I really like meeting the newcomers, and the children that think your really the King

And giving out awards doesn't suck.......

Thorstenn,

Thorstenn

Funny, it only seamed about an hour and 55 minutes to me You left out the part about crown list being roughly 4 hours long (?) and about half of that time was you fighting Gunnar. Gaston Jagatei and Christoff We hope to see you both soon. Hey Murdock, as a scott you should fight for the French in th...

Thorstenn

Find out where he is from and let his local Chivalry deal with it, write them a letter. Then move on, he is not worth wasting anymore time on until his attitude changes.

I would want to know.....

Thor,

Thorstenn

I can attest to the craftsmanship and there value in battle Buy one, or two, or three.

Heck get a few in different colors there awesome.

Thor,

Thorstenn

The SCA and Trimaris have come a long way through the valiant efforts of very Noble men. I have personally busted my but to make them proud and to be who and what my Lady hope's I can be one day. We are glad you got a chance to come to the event, just wish you had said hello while you were there, bu...

Thorstenn
