In North Korea, this forum wouldn't be banned, it would be revered and taught in schools as a palatable and preferable version of Western history. And in many ways, that's all the truth the children of North Korea need

1. That house is awesome, we go visit them every year (since they're just down the lake a bit)... Vlad has multiple houses and of course the big Italian Villa Casa Bardicci has a balcony, a chapel, a tavern and loads of awesomeness ;-)

2. Cut and Thrust is good stuff. Here in the Middle Kingdom its becoming quite prolific and covering the two handed longsword and now experimental halberds. However, Schlager blades aren't permitted in C&T here, you have to be using specific "cut and thrust" blades as approved by the KRM. Basically heavy practice blades ala MK Armory, Darkwood, Del Tin etc.

Personally, I've found Morazzo's unarmed combat as discussed in "Abrazare", far more exciting than C&T. Though C&T with a longsword is pretty awesome too, I like making the Heavy Fighters jealous ;-)

Ok, I'm better now. That is cool. Glad to see C&T expanding. I wish the local SCA heavy practice wasn't during the week, during my pre calc class. Seriously, why have a fighter practice during the week? Every other barony I have been in the heavies practiced on the weekends.

WOW that is incredibly cool.

When they say "portable," how portable are we talking? Looks like you'd need a semi or a really big U-Haul to carry that thing around.

It's all styrofoam and plaster.  You could lift it with your off-hand.  

Oh, the armor?  Aaah, probably just moulded plastic.  Amazing the metallic effects you can get with drybrushing.

If it's not inflatable and carryable, looks like a job for ... SCIENCE!
