Optio....One thing iv'e learnt about this forum and iv been a member of it and the one before it for quite sometime is................. dont' rise to it!

Pm'd

Already got two of his lol...

Dont have a falcion but i have a hand n half and i have found it to be very good.I would say they are good quality although they are not the cheapest around.I would deffo get another from them,in fact i have been considering getting a two hander from them...

According to the time travellers guide (don't know if you have a copy) Asians where present in this country in the 14th century.People travelled as far as China and Moscow too.I think it was Henry the 4th who had an elephant at the tower of London for 4 years before it died and Eddy 3rd had Leopards...

Ha! best period to re-enact lol....Anyhow if you have a shift of mind give me a shout! To be honest i have come to the conclusion that it doe's not matter where a groups based because you will end up traveling all over the country to event's anyhow..

Middle to late 14th century is the way forward lol...

Where's all this going??...The poor guy posted on here about recruiting for his new group and he is getting slated for it.Optio has set his standards and if thats a problem for some people then the sensible solution is to either ignore the post or do something radical, be a big person and offer him ...

Ding Dong... well done for knowing what you want and sticking to it..

Might be worth you trying some of the ECW forums,dont' think theres many of them on here..

Come on then ,what colour where Rabbits in the 14th century??.Just got a load of fur coats to embellish our garb and we have a light brown, and a beige coloured one amongst them.Might seem a stupid question but you can get Rabbits in loads of different colours and fur types now..

Try the search button on the forum,we have covered this before i think..What period are you looking at?..Just reading life of the Black Prince at the moment and in his accounts he ordered several feet/meteres of taffeta.Hope this helps....

Welcome to the forum,may your stay be a long and happy one...
