This armor is in top like new condition. It was purchased by them for LARPing (padded touch fighting), and was only used a couple of occasions for that, and very light SCA use (less than a couple months) until they were sucked in by the 14th Century Mafia family and they got new armor (and getting n...

I have found through experience that the closer fitting faced helms have a slight visual advantage, and the longer snout faces have less visual advantage, but the exchange of breath is better. The close faced helms keep the "hot breath" close enough to the face that it is partially drawn i...

I will volunteer to fight whoever will meet me in the first format listed- lance and axe. My new, mid period Russian armor is complete and as much as I pollaxe, battleaxe and lance are more what I would have preferred.

Re: Sca Combat as a reenactment

I wish I hadn't packed up my tourney book. It has a huge centerfold of a period painting depicting 100+ combatants penned into a wooden fence list engaged in a grand melee with batons & wasters. That is what I think of when I think of SCA combat as "period" combat. That would be from ...

Re: Hobnails vs cleats

Are there any rules against hob nailed boots or shoes being worn on the field in Amy kingdom as far as any one knows? Cause modern cleats look line dog squeeze. And hobnails are period and would add all the grip you could want if added to period shoes. No, they don't. Hobnails will make footing WOR...
