A personal thank you to Icefalcon Armory

These pictures speak for themselves. I now feel fully like the person I portray. To feel, to live, to endure as they did, as close as I can. Thank you Andreas for providing such awesome product for us. Your maille is the bombad. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v168/Leonthas/Armor/35920_14995440122...

Gorm is 100% correct. If both sides had a ballista, the battles would have been much different.

Now, is that a problem with CA, or with the planning of the senarios? . It was not a problem, just an observation. I didn't get shot once, but that was because I was paying attention to the ballista, as well as the engaement lines and the front. We were pretty good about warning it was coming. Thos...

Today, I attended an event that was non-res, and there was ONE ballista on ONE side. I do have to say, I was on the side that did NOT have the ballista. Every battle they had the ballista (ie combat archery allowed) we lost. We lost directly due to the fact that it was a non-rez limited front (bridg...

My plan is to line the bottom of my full hauberk with a soft kidskin backing. I also am planning on putting a full lining in my aventaille. Both are more correct for my historical counterpart anyhow.

I would point out that anyone in a rural area better understand that if dogs run loose and bother livestock, it is standard practice to shoot them. This was my "welcome to the neigborhood" with the people who bought the house 13 acres back from us. The farrier was out doing my draft horse...

I will cherish always the look on the realtors face when she was telling us about this great house on 10 acres with a barn and run ins built in 1987 with all updates and I told her we weren't interested and wanted a house built BEFORE 1900.

Not really, she had the second 14th C poleaxe. I have to say, I didn't think she had it in her, and she impresses me more and more as a serious farmer/woodsman every day here at the new farm.
