Thanks for posting those. It is cool to flip through them and get the motion effect. It would be cool to print them out and make a CotT flip book.

Perhaps we can alleviate that disappointment by setting up a deed of our own? I'm sure we can find a mutually acceptable crossroads to meet at.

Friedrich - Nothing would bring me greater pleasure.
A suitable location must be agreed upon. My Great Captain has informed me of such a place at the Ealdormearean Coronation.
Alas, financially I was struck hard at the Thirty this year, providing the ransom for not only myself, but another who came to the aid of the French at the last moment. It may take me some time to recover my assets before such a journey can be made.
If a location can be found that is mutually agreeable, I would be most insistent on meeting you on the Field of Honor.
Sir Cedric - If the situation had not demanded that I gain the release of my compatriot, I would not have dealt w/ you in such a manner. For that treatment, I do extend my most humble apologies.
It should give you some comfort that I was treated most roughly for my shenanigans after my own capture. I'm sure if you were watching me being escorted off the field, you will know what I mean.
And as to your perfectly human desire to see my life's blood spilled upon the ground, there is a recording of last year's Thirty where you can hear me explaining to my compatriots that an eye had to be kept on Sir Angus for the very same reason. And then it happened!
So I know exactly where you are coming from.
As to the question of attending the Deed @ Gulf Wars. It is not one of our normal destinations and would require much planning. However, if we can swing it I would be honored to be accepted into such Noble Ranks.

Started out this year declaring for the English and ended up fighting for the French at the request of Johannes due to the disparity of numbers. Found myself captured by one of Vitus squires (cannot recall the name as I am bout half deaf and didn't quite catch it.)

My google fu has failed me so ill ask here is the battle of the 30 what A.C. Doyle used as a basis for the battle in Sir Nigel when the english and french were at "peace and not supposed to fight. So they decided to meet over an insult ( i think). Think in the story there were some germans there too.

My thanks to everyone who has posted vids or pics of the Combat. I haven't been able to attend Pennsicm, and the CoTT is one of the things I look forward to reading about each August. It is an inspiring thing I hope to participate in some day.
Has anyone posted pics to Flickr.com? I've seen some great shots of CoTT the past few years there. Better yet, anyoen have a compendium of interwebz vid/pic sources for images from past Pennsic CoTTs?
Thanks all!

You issue might be that it is the Combat of the Thirty not the battle of the 30
The real tale of the Thirty does not match the story description you gave. The Thirty happened during a struggle for control of the Duchy of Brittany. During a slow part of a siege the French defenders issued a challenge to the English for a tournament. The English side was made up of English and Germans.

This incident is a thinly-veiled account of the famed Combat of the Thirty, which is of importance in Breton history and in the annals of chivalry, as being an exemplary passage of arms. It may be worthwhile to note that Sir Robert Knolles, who is held to have participated in the fictional jousts in Sir Nigel, was also one of the original thirty combatants.

Leave the SCA better than you found it. Fight alot of cool people along the way.

Anyone know this fellow in the yellow jupon and the fancy brocade pantaloons?
http://tiny.cc/tl4pg
He ransomed me back in the first battle and I wanted to offer him thanks but in the hustle and bustle after the second battle I never got to talk to him, although I did get to offer his beautiful lady (who, I believe was royalty somewhere) my ransom.

Gregoire is correct it was me who captured you. My Lady was very pleased to meet you and happy to receive your ransom. Perhaps next time we meet we will have longer to talk

Larmer and I are grappling with Gilebert behind him. I had a dagger and he had a spear. They captured me in the end.

William, what did your squire do to get his pollaxe that gray color?
And yes, you three look amazing.
There I was mentally preparing for the Thirty with visions in my head of walking onto the field and gathering "Oh's!" and "Ah's!" from the assembled masses and you know what?
When I arrived and looked around all I felt under-dressed with all the magnificent kits. Humbling and awe-inspiring all at the same time.

I used tool dip.
Turns out you can buy (had to special order at my local hardware store) a kit of the stuff that comes clear, and has like 6-8 different pigments you can mix and match to custom make a color.
The black rubber had a side effect of making the first several coats of grey have a green tint to them. I then used coats of grey spray paint primer and more grey tool dip till it looked better. Never quite got the green tint to totally go away, it just isn't viisble in pics.
It held up ok, there is one small tear off the face of the hammer. Probly would have had that tear with duct tape too.
I also learned that the tool dip adheres really well to rough rattan, and not at all to the smooth skin.
