The Armour Archive

Hi Guys
one of the chaps on the LH forum suggested i post this here for your perusal
The plan is to apply the high standards or good re-enactment to live role play hence the latex weaponry (which we have had specially made with re-enforced hooks and heavy duty cores ) all the armour is good steel (two of the chaps have almain rivet on under thier base coats ).

Looks very nice!

WOW! Kudos for that excellent acheivment. What LARP are you playing?

Our first outing will be Conquest of Mythodea near Hannover
we are taking 10 uniformed soldiers and 5 hangers on (a surgeon a proper lady and some wenchy types)
From there we're going to look for some stuff in the UK for next year.

Nice one, it was me that recommended and rightly so.

Looks really good.

Great!

You would fit in at other Larps in Germany, for example this one: http://www.manoevertage.de/ (click at the pictures to get into the gallery).

Perhaps I will be at the Mythodea too. Some friends of mine will be there for shure. Ask for some Landsknechts ("Lapping-Rotte" - means rabbit-troop ) in the Air-Camp (Luftlager). Perhaps you can have nice play with them.
Here is their homepage: http://www.de-reuver-online.de/lappingrotte/index.htm

We play without magic and much fantasy-parts.

I want that pole axe!

Fantastic we have been looking at the lapping Rotte guys for a while now thinking that they looked like a group with a similar mind set and exactlly the right period for us .We are looking foward to meeting our landsknecht allies
some better pictures of the weapons and armour

Just wonderful!

Very well done!

Way awesome!
Good on you guys!

Kudos!

That looks awesome and I can see a great potential for fun. Why can't we have about 1000 guys like that turned out in the States???

Well, I know why, but I have to ask.

Replace the loofa weapons with steels and you could get yourselves some work here in the UK next year(500yrs since Henry VIII was kinged)....seriously we have nothing that good for early Tudor military and bugger all that good for late medieval military......ooops did I type that out loud.


Ginger, to the shopping trolley!

<~~ is amused by the screen namd "Pretaboire" = Ready to Drink.

<~~ is also very impressed with those rigs. Formidable!

As Dingey Digby said, but he meant set the foam aside temporarily, rather than ditch them, your tudor kit is excellent.

Where are you based?

!!! Awesome kits!

Where are you Based? What are you doing this weekend?

Be great to see you there. any questions, email me.

Cheers!

Generally a big thank you for all your kind remarks
Digby
replacement or weapons is never a problem as am a member of Beauforts and have a stack of steel bills in the yard also most of our chaps are archers so have good longbows .

many thanks for the kind invite unfortunately most of the group is still recovering from an intensive training weekend and I will be off to Tewkesbury for some none too serious bashage

That's just beautiful.

Need to seriously look into something like that here.

Nice kit, looks like fun. I put a flodden kit together a few years ago here in Pa, USA. I'm the chap on the far right.

Mark, is your Tudor reenactment group still active? My interest is the early to mid-16th-century Scottish Borders. Thanks for the pictures. I recognize Marietta Mansion. Was this picture taken at Marching Through Time?

Yes, we are still active. and yes thats MTT from two years ago. Kieth has done some stuff since then. I like the border conflict too. I'd like to do the "ruff wooing", lots of small skirmishes. It would be good for reenacting.

Mark

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

You're welcome to come and play with us, we re-enact that period and we have a couple of events for that period for next year.
