A year and a half in the SCA

Wow, that's an awesome price! 8)

True, but only members of this forum and half a dozen other forums would pick up on that. To the general public, you're killing it. Hell, in the SCA you're already in the top percentile for kit! :)
AnsalonPaladin:
I think it's pretty nifty for only having collected kit for going on two years now. I saw the Order Of The Marshal fight in the summer of '15 at the VARF. Was super intrigued even though I didn't talk to a single one of them. Went home and researched them and found this forum- then that unlocked an interest that progressed into a full blown obsession. You should look at my youtube recommended list, it's hilarious how few subjects are covered. Medieval history, medieval kit, SCA and HEMA, military history, and gaming. So in the span of about a year and a half I've started to amass a nice little collection. I have enough kit to outfit three fighters right now and I'm working on a Varangian guard kit (hence the kettle helm) perfecting my 14C continental kit and transitioning it into an English kit, and a Crusader kit for Pennsic Crusade.
Thorsteinn:
Got a fighting video?
Bayard_Davis-Munro:
It's good to see the update. I am debating talking to the SCA folks near me again. But my problem is work schedule. At least it was a few years ago when I approached them ;) maybe new blood has taken over and will be more accepting to the fact I have weird hours on occasion.
If all else fails, I have other options as this board has proven.
Plus I am with Thorsteinn , do you have video of the fights? Or a link to a YouTube channel with them?
Thanks!
AnsalonPaladin:
I don't tend to have anyone come with me to take videos, so I don't have many of myself specifically.
But here's one when I first started the SCA. I'm the guy in the super hodge podge "viking" kit. Funny fact about the spangenhelm I'm in- it split both of my eyebrows during various fights. So now I have scarred up eyebrows. I hated that helmet. I hated everything about that kit.
