Are you talking to me? Yes I have at this point made four of these things, two in rock maple and two in Padauk. If you get a big block of wood and nest them like yin yang you can get two stocks from one piece of wood. And I designed them so I don't know if that answers the qusetion of whether I had ...

Clovenshield would always go with the better fighting, lower numbers, if we had a choice. But we don't always have a choice. These commitments typically are in place for many months before the day and there is no way of knowing numbers that far in advance. And once we are bought we stay bought. We o...

Theuy are not really attached at all. The leather gloves have a long cuff that tucks into the forarm pieces. the forarm pieces nest in the "socket" of the gauntlet cuff.

They are very flexible and comfortable and marginally safe.

She was hanging out in our shade pavillion on the battlefield edge and one of my guys was whining about how he wasn't gonna fight anymore because his neck hurt.

Her very presence helped me shame the sand out of his crack and get him back on the field.

A few years ago I made some pump action crossbows for SCA use. They don't really pump, they just have a curved metal bar like a "goatsfoot" that pivits through the stock body to allow easier draw, without letting your eyes leave the battlefield. DUke Cuan of Atlantia asked me for the desig...

People like that will be what keeps the SCA around for many years to come.

Were you ever new at this Effingham? With all due respect to your immense skills and knowledge, thou wouldst do well to pull that stick out of thine ass, before commenting on the mote in thy neighbors eye.

Now just free up some Tuesday nights to use that armour. Otherwise its just a costume.

Alright, I will grant to Nissan, all the real estate around Chicago that he cares to take and hold for me. Then he will not be disinherited anymore. -Graedwyn knight of Aethelmearc I've already pretty much taken over Chicago. Anyone that wants it back can come try to take it from me. But Aethelmark...

It was great meeting you guys. Thanks for the mead, you didn't need to do that.

And as for inspiration, your presence shamed a couple of my men who were devloping sand in their cracks to strap it back on and keep fighting.

Thanks.

Oh no, The heartfelt gift of an arrow to show the affection of mercenary comabat archers would have entertainment value all its own. he does know he is a marked man. I made sure of that. Because Sir Vitus killed me, I gave him the prize of the playing card with his device on it that I hand out to my...

Crown Royal is my favorite personal poison. I really wanted to assasinate Vitus to collect that particular bounty, but sadly never encountered him in my 2 short days on the Field of Honor and Glory. Was that just for Pennsic or can we try again later? He has to be on the other side from me for it t...

Northshield was great to work for. You kicketh much ass. Victor was honoured to recive the norlander or whaterver its called. He was just doing his ultraviolent axe thing. This is just a side hobby for him. He really plays ice hockey. By the way, fuck the union. We arent in the union and my men know...

Very well, Maeryk. My question still stands. Specifically there are three parties, From bottom to top they are: The service provider (mercenary scum) The customer (Noble vassal) The recipient (the Crown) The customer comes to the service provider and offers goods and services in excess of what you ...

Lets not even go there. If there wasn't a market there wouldn't be a service. The market exists because (with Konrad's recent exception aside) kings wanted to win wars (at all costs). People will pay to provide this service so that kings will like them. Who in this scenario gets dishonour? All or no...

I think it was well done.
I have publically givin royals shit about not doing something to keep this fun. Konrad did something. Good for him.

I'd like to thank my retainers, Sir Monos of Aethelmark for escaping with my severed head so that my enemies could not display it in the capital and Lady Eleanor Fairchild for singing my death poem over my corpse.

Verily, it was a pleasure to contest against you in your noble deed of arms.
And your water bearer chick was way cute.

Nissan Maxima

Animal,
It didn't last long enough for me to get to. By the time Raito was done killing me in the nip battle it was over. I hope you got the donation I sent up.

Sorry I missed it brother.

Clovenshield worked for Northshield this year.

They kicketh ass as employers.

One of my guys (Victor) even won a northshield fighting award, the name of which I don't currently remember, for major axe whakery.

Seriously, well done and thank you Kingdom of Northshield.

Nissan Maxima

Well I have heard from my employer and Clovenshield is fighting for Northshield, which I believe means blue tape. My only problem with that is that sometimes I have to dodge some blue on blue shots when guys see the red armour out of the corner of their eye and just swing without proper target iden...
