Why have traditional leather when you can have cheap canvass for your army? Za Rodinu!

That battlefield is absolutely amazing. Must get muddy as hell after a good rainfall. Terrible for a equipment but amazing for the atmosphere.

Can't wait for my first battle at Kelmarsh. Hoping we end up getting some attention from the enemy archers.

You might get a taste of that mud yet, I've heard it tends to bloody piss it down every year at Kelmarsh

Could have been to be fair, though apparently the year before there was some decent flooding, I've seen a pic of some Vikings rowing about on an inflatable bed

Spring event we typically get poured on. If the planes ever come out, it's usually not in the Spring.

Fall gets chilly, so it's good for wool. Planes will come in the Fall.
Humans are extremely complicated creatures. Death uncomplicates them to a frightening degree...

That's when I'd be coming too, fingers crossed, only minor wee problem is I'd be a good 7 hours away by car. Then again, I'd walk that is if meant seeing the holy grail of reenacting

Waterloo 200 is certainly stepping things up in the UK! Just got a short notice publicity event at the tower of london next week! Should be a nice one!!
I did a promotional event there a couple of years ago for Assassins Creed 3, we provided a guard at the gates where all the game reviewers came along to play the game for a couple of hours before reviewing, not sure how many of them appreciated it, but certainly got thousands of photos taken by excited japanese tourists! lol

Hang on, don't you do Napoleonic 95th? And you're doing publicity for AWI...95th? Were they even around then?

Let's face it, the majority of people playing AC probably wouldn't notice something weird if you put an Napoleonic Rifleman at an AC3 stand. They play the game for fun, and don't really care about history.

Playing AC3 for fun is also a terrible decision.

It's not possible to play AC3 for fun... because it's uh... not... fun. Yeah.
