Hidden cops & valsguard splint arms are on the list.


Edit: First up though will be leg wraps which my mom may have sourced for me in cotton.

Regarding the fighting: The Kung Fu pic is me (6') talking to Duke Hauoc Bender (6'6").

I had one awesome shot all day that told me my skill is there, just rusty. I threw a slot shot fake towards Michael of the Shire's head and turned it into a thigh thrust at the bottom of the arc when his shield raised up. It felt goooood!  :D

I love when that happens... I get rusty all the time, since I don't fight enough at all, but then when you have a moment where things click into place and you pull off something you haven't done in a while... oh yes, it's just beautiful. :)
