"It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough."

We're getting snow, then sun, then snow. Cycles of dry, wet, ice, snow.

Looks great!  The zweihander looks especially menacing in that kit.  We really need to chip in and purchase some horses for the Order's photo ops!

We got about half a foot last Wednesday, but didn't take the pictures until a few days later, and it had melted and iced over quite a bit. Flurries that morning, but nothing stuck. It was around 40* when we took them, so time was running out. :)

Thanks Ian! I wanted the most ridiculously oversized sword for the pictures, even though it's appropriate to later-era Swiss / Landsknechts. I wish I had the space (and finances) for horses!

Hell, we should just form the Order into a combat troupe & take over some RenFaire contracts. :) All's 'faire' in joust & war!! LOL Or start something along those lines.
