Julian or Gregorian?

Hugo, your an evil, evil person.

I would guess Julian, since it would be odd to have the date always altered like that...

Didn't the Teutonic Knights own Gotland in that period? Was it the TKs invasion that produced the Visby battle?

It was the Danish king Valdemar Atterdag who invaded Gotland in order to recreate the once great Danish empire. It would take until 1645 before it was returned to the kingdom of Sweden (but the Gotlanders still maintain that they are Gotlandic and not Swedish).
Do visit during the middleages week in august and we could have a beer or whatever... I'll be there.
