These guys are D&D guys who never did a stage dive in their lives. Never fought skinheads or cops. Never overdid anything. Man, it makes me really mad.

No... actually, I used the search engine, and typed in "Freon".

It means don't be surprised when you get "negative response right off the bat" when a goodly portion of your posts are negative.

Dante, is that your new helm? Looks great. Do you still use the sallet you had?


No, and no. :D

I de-volved... I ditched the sallet and went back to my old bascinet (in pic). Its temporary till the Onion Top from Illusion arrives later this summer.

Why? You are working within the rules. I'm asking because I want to know YOUR reason.

Simple. Let go of it. Under SCA tourney rules, he has to give it back to you.


There is a discussion going on about that right now on the Squire's Yahoo group.

I think letting go of your trapped weapon during a tourney just to stop the fight and recover from a bad situation is kinda cheezy.
