Great news!

Lucian Ro

I fully blame (credit!) that movie for me being the great bloody SCA and armor nerd that I am. Even as a pre-teen (thanks, The Movie Channel!) I recognized the fact that someday I would own a suit of armor. Hah, same for me. I think it's safe to say that many around our age were inspired by this mo...

Lucian Ro

Aw, geez, enough already.

I need stainless, etc. armored fingers to apply to gauntlets for SCA combat. There. All defined in the necessarily proper manner.

Lucian Ro

The Emperor wills it. I need to venture forth and destroy the Heretics but I lack an army. Looking for space marines (new or used) and vehicles. I'd prefer unpainted but I'm not picky. Might also be interested in other armies but they'd be for my lady's son so I'm not yet positive what he's interest...

Lucian Ro

I want Spelljammer.

Thanks, Bob.

Yes, friend, but are you prepared to give me the finger ten times? Well, all you'd actually need to do is give me the finger EIGHT times and then the thumb twice ...

Lucian Ro

I love you Dave. Now get on those damn finger kits 2.0!!

Lucian Ro

Your Grace, what are the studs on the legs made from? I'd love to get a hold of some.

Lucian Ro

See, I was born without fingers and, as we speak, I'm typing with nubs. Okay, not really. I've actually posted this search before but Cet doesn't have a 2.0 set in production and Whonew didn't return emails so who else is out there that either has a set they want to sell or makes them? I need someth...

Anvil shirt arrived today, thanks V.

Lucian Ro

Oh that's GOOD!

Lucian Ro

Great work!

Lucian Ro

This is good to hear because I need a new helm liner for my bascinet but I wasn't quite sure where to go. I know Brian Price sells them but, well, I'd rather spend my dollar somewhere else.
How was fit? And do you possibly have a link to the liners? I'm at work at have a firewall.

Lucian Ro

Aw, Jeri. what I would NOT do to have extra cash right now! That is gorgeous work!

Lucian Ro

I read the first page and then responded. What failed to notice in my want to respond was that there are FOUR other pages here, so my apologies if I regurgitated pre-mentioned standings.

Lucian Ro

EDIT: I understand that for others, fighting is not the focus of their SCA interest. This does not excuse them from having to meet minimal standards of protection when fighting, why should it excuse them from meeting minimum standards of appearance? If you are unable to meet these standards, do not...

Lucian Ro

Damn it, put me after MJ.

Lucian Ro

Happenstance and intent are two completely different animals. What if intentionally set out to break your helmet? You'd be pissed.
If it happened in the heat of battle by mistake? Not pissed.
See?
Not the same.

Lucian Ro

I saw something similar done at Gulf Wars but it was more of a "Oops, I'm pressing your spear against the wall of the fort with my body and if you keep fighting to get it free it's going to break!" type of issue. I found it unattractive.

Lucian Ro

What about the intentional stomping of arrows/bolts during War?
Been there, seen that. Was pretty discouraged to witness that kind of attitude.

Edited to add -- Break my spear and we're going to have a serious discussion, you and I.

Lucian Ro

Well, shit.
Good luck, Hjalmr!

Lucian Ro

Since the link only sends you to the order page, does anyone have any interior pics to share? I'm quite interested in purchasing, I'd just would like to know more of what I'm getting.

Lucian Ro

Can you get purple, Your Grace?

Lucian Ro

Actually, I'm probably a Small, or at least I was with the lightweight gambeson I got from Westland.

Lucian Ro

Damn it, I meant to come back to this. You going to have extras at Pennsic, Your Grace?

Lucian Ro

Wow, excellent job.

Lucian Ro

Wow, excellent job.

Lucian Ro

Wow, excellent job.

Lucian Ro

PM'd ya.

Lucian Ro

Oh Robotech was so fun. I keep meaning to look for those.

Fearghus, are the two Rogue Traders the same book? If so, I'll just take the hardcover.
I'm trying to see if I need the Codex's, waiting to hear back.

Lucian Ro

Let me tentatively call dibs on the 40k books and the Shadowrun books. Will email you later this afternoon with a few questions before it's a definite, okay?

Also, any 40k figures?

Lucian Ro

Pics?
