Cross Post: Rus vs Teutonics at Estrella War!!!

[Kazimir Konstantinov]

It is Spring of 1242 and the Teutonic Order rides forth to Novgorod to the crusade. The Bishop has sent them forth to spread the faith to the heathen Rus. They seek to subjugate the pagan peoples of the Motherland. The Rus gather near Lake Peipus to give battle. To stand with the Druzhina and drive the Teutonic horde back whence it came.
The Rus and the Teutonics shall meet upon the field of battle Saturday at Estrella War. All who would do honor to this moment are welcome. Come one and all my Brothers in Arms. All shall be attired in arms and armour appropriate to the Battle of Lake Peipus 1242 to take part in this glorious battle. This moment is a but a meer glimpse and a chance to relive the glory of this piece of history for the Rus and Teutonic alike! We would ask that all prepare kit and make ready to do battle.
We all shall strive to take this opportunity to shine above and beyond. Do all that you can to represent your affiliation be it Rus or Teutonic!

Please feel free to contact me with any questions!

Young Almost Sibling,

I will bring my Brother Knights and attendents of the Blessed Mary, suitably clad, and meet you on the Field!

Cooooooooooool idea!!!

"Alexander Nevsky" is going through my mind right now, reading this.

I presume the Russian side will have a large corps of armoured archers?

[Marshal]

Meh, it's the desert. The only way you're going to have a "lake" is if it rains the way it did a few years back. And then it will be in the middle of the encampments...

And I'm going to go out on a limb and say that even then it will NOT be frozen!
