Last plug for the Round Table event this weekend (memorial day) in Kansas City, MO at the Lilies war site. You can find out more at:

Should be great fun, and unlike anything done so far. (Five suits of armor and a 23' round table later, I'm glad it's finally here!)

I look about 100 years too late for this event. Can I show up anyway?

And its people view their Sires in the light of fools and liars,
'Tis a sign of its decline and its glories cannot last."

Of course you can show up. Hence the phrase "14th century armor is *
encouraged *", NOT "required".

Josh, go outside in your armor.
Run through the sprinkler a few times.
Let your armor sit until the weekend.
Problem solved, your armor now looks older.
