Evening of Oct 4th Hagerstown, MD

[Sir Brian]

ya lets get there at 5. john says we can use his room to change etc. i will be in my plate (if it fits) for the entire time. i think they want a lil fighting but you don't need to go all out and this is my boom stick introductions etc , waiting on him to call me back

OK great. So maybe what we might do is just a little bit of light harnessfechten? Kinda explain how it works, and do a few exchanges? But otherwise just look pretty.

That will work. I’ll bring my COP as well then. It will be sweet to test out my new waster!

Sir James:
Did I happen to forget my black leather sword frog with your gear from VARF? It’s the one we used for the daggers and has a brass ring.

Yep! It's here in safe keeping, being guarded by a moat, two dragons, and one two-headed dragon.

[Sir Brian]

Awesome! Thanks!

[Sir James A]

Awesome! Thanks!

You're welcome. But... I have no idea how to get it out of such a secure location.

[Sir Wolf]

about hte ladies, i am unsure how much dinner is but i do know that all 4 of us are covered by john himself. so hmmmm the dinner is part of their fundraiser and i'm pretty sure its not cheap.  i think we are his "representation" of the "Knights of the Blind" cause.

[Sir Edward]

OK, it turns out she IS available, but I might let her know it's not practical for her to tag along.

[Sir James A]

If she wants to go, I'll skip dinner and she can have mine. It's difficult for me to eat much in full harness anyway.

I will likely pass on dinner as well, electing to grab something on the way because in all honesty I have difficulty feeding myself with any semblance of table manners while fully armored and I absolutely REFUSE to allow Sir Wolf the perverse satisfaction and opportunity to ‘feed’ me!

[Sir Wolf]

lol ahhah well, 4 dinner have been paid for. so if you don't wanna eat yummy meals then i guess it won't be "on" you hahahah

[Sir James A]

I'll eat if possible, I'm just willing to forego it so that Kat can go and have dinner too. I'm good either way.

[Sir Wolf]

we can share Kat......... wait that sounded wrong, we can share with Kat lol

[Sir Brian]

Okay back to the essentials! Are we bringing armor and weapons for a display or nay? I'll be wearing my Talhoffer and rondel dagger for the escort into the hall. I'll have a change of surcoat, my bascinet, wooden rondel and waster for the harnischfechten. Should I bring a marshal of the list pole for either Sir James/Sir Wolf to referee? Are we bothering with shields for display or just wearing? All of your harnesses are 15th so am I the only 14th century?

I'll be wearing an albion as well, and the nicer surcoat.

For fighting, I'll also have to switch out surcoat, add the windrose helm & the standard, etc. Will wear a shield, but I'm not bringing additional ones.

I'll bring a couple of maces and helms to display (the usual pieces), and my glaive, and that's about it.

No, I'm in 14th as well. I can't move well in my 15th. You won't see me using that kit again any time soon, now that my 14th works.

[Sir James A]

I've got my arming clothes, shoes, harness, sword, garter, and for show and tell: a buckler, a spaulder, pair of gauntlets, and a vambrace.

Getting directions and heading out shortly.

[Sir Wolf]
