>>10936832This last weekend was the big bongland fest, so now I'm back my current project is fixing everything that broke over the event. I need to order some new buttons for my coat and doublet, derust and protect all my armour, do some minor weapon repairs and all that jazz. I've got a 13th C game coming up fairly soon, so my next "real" project will probably be making some new soft kit for that. While my existing stuff is fine, it's a bit larpy and generic, and I'd prefer to make a new tunic with brighter colours than my current one.
Kit progress. I've added some stuff to the arsenal. I have a dress sword now for when I wear fancy clothes, because it will work better than the big swords for that. The purple elvish blade is a cursed weapon I'll carry on campaign, for the occasions where I might need to fall back on my weebness because it looks and handles like a katana without being one. The buckler is a small punch shield that I plan to use in tandem with an incoming studded club for if I want to get boffer-y in a fight, with omni strike surfaces not beholden to blade orientation. The fancy hat is a fancy hat for the aforementioned fancy clothing; the pic doesn't really show it but it's purple and gold, because while I'm not expressly stating that I'm going to try and propagate a Slaanesh cult into this fantasy LARP, I'm probably going to propagate a Slaanesh cult into this fantasy LARP. The character's religion is basically gateway Slaanesh, and he's quite delusional already, so it's not a long leap to make.I need to go and buy some tin snips to finish trimming the chainmail arms. My little wire cutters are struggling with the steel gauge. At least I know for certain it was built as advertised, it's definitely not aluminum.More to come as I build up.
Where do you folk buy your armour? Sites, brands, etc. I'm geographically close to Greece/Cyprus if that matters. I wanna get something sorta along the lines of pic related, arguably with a different helmet, or minus the tassets or something.>>10937384This looks like a cool kit and you sound like a really fun player
>>10937889I shop with a local guy (therionarms) almost exclusively.
Hey Hungarian (and other anon as well guess), how was 97 poets?
>>10938071I really loved it, the Rolling guys made something uniqe yet again, but the first run was sadly plagued by problems outside of the organizers control. First and foremost there was a flood situation in the city which fucked up the site a little, so they had to deconstruct and rebuild a shitton of props. But even then they managed to run a great game which tells you all about their skill level. Maybe later I will do a storytime or something when the pictures are out. But if you have a specific question just ask
Does anyone have the link to the latest version of the Historical european maker database excel sheet?
