Well, since I'm the Grosskomtur of the Beuseant Brotherood, I say the Teutonic Knights can eat candy and not clean their rooms either! So HA!
We get a fun day too!  ;D

What's that mean, Sir Nathan?  Looks obscene.  ;)

It means he's a big boy now and can stay up late on a school night without permission. LOL oh and I think it makes him the patriarchal chief of the Teutonic ranks.  ;D

For the record, we have lots of fun days! Every day is a fun day when there are pagans to fight!

Unless it turns out like the battle of the Ice, (Lake Peipus).  In which case it would look kind of like this

Hey, what was that from?  I've seen a still of the guy in the scale armor on horseback with the spear and face helm.  Always liked that scale harness look.

I think I'll need to check that out; looked like my kind of movie.  Need to get ahold of another Russian flick as well...1476 or something like that.

Nah. Only thing 'skimmed' was the extra money from his parents so he could get chocolate milk instead.

Those things sound like fun!!!! :D

If a fight breaks out a gain between the Pagans and the Teutonic knights I’m game, I will play the role my family always has in the issue, work for the Kingdom of Sweden and take land while you both are occupied trying to kill each other, and then fight to keep it. ;)

Lake Peipus wasn't against pagans, it was against Novgorod. Also there were like only 40 Knights actually there (it was a force marshaled by the local Bishop) and it was outnumbered 3-1, with most of it's forces composed of native levys of doubtful quality, all fighting on the ice. I would hope in those circumstances, Novgorod's greatest hero could pull off a victory...

And I reenact the 14th century, you just see how taking Teutonic land works out for you  ;)

Sir William, the Grosskomtur (Grand commander) was the 2nd highest rank in the Teutonic Order, directly below that of Hochmiester.

Also how dare you accuse me of chocolate milk thievery! This is outrage!  :o

Yes well your indignation is quite understandable and there is no other recourse, you gentlemen will just have to duel it out because the second best thing to actually being in a good duel is watching a good duel! ;)
