Why did you split ACW from the Victorian era?Because
^Not really, It was an industrial war just like the rest of the wars in that period. The only difference is where it took place. I suggest you to put them together at once like this;
ACW is as pretty looking as Victorian haha
nah basiaclly as they are offered considered 2 very different things, same period kinda yes but still different
Wismar, why are you even making a point out of this? You're not even a re-enactor. Joseph, same thing.-.-
The ACW is so big that mixing it with the little groups that to Crimea or Franco-Prussian war is just a ridiculous suggestion. There's not even a single person here who does anything Victorian, perhaps maybe Zac himself. Besides, you can't possibly compare the events, uniforms, battles or tactics of the Civil war with anything Victorian, which by the way is far too broad to be a good re-enactor term. It makes kind of a difference whether you Crimea or Franco-prussian - About 20 years, to be exact.
It's the same thing when Americans claim their war of 1812 was part of the Napoleonic wars. Hell no.
Just beacause you go and pretent to shoot at some kids and elders (sorry, any other reenactors out there) doesn't mean you know more than me.

I'm hoping I can go, I wasnt able to go last year :c
Generally don't do that kind of thing during her periods...
Voting was hard decision to make. Especially I like uniforms, equipment, weapons, ranks, units etc. from all periods but medieval, Napoleonic, Civil War, first and second world war was the closest to me. But I'm actually not supposed to be in this thread, because there isn't many reenactments at my country, even I would wan't to join.
Fantastic hit-taking at 1:10! Love it.

That was really awesome how that one guy fell back like that. It looked real.
We all need more SS in Reenactment. I mean it would be completely shiet if there would be more Wehrmacht than SS Reenactors because in WW2 the German army was mostly made of SS troops. So more SS is needed
I am just doing 2nd lb KGL because of the black collar...

George, SS is far more expensive to get into than Heer. Just go Heer.

Ancient, Napoleonic, Civil War, and WWI.
You're like 12 dude.
SS is stupid. Heer is so much better. I really do not get why people like the looks of the SS so much. I do not like them. At all. They look stupid.

EdwardC, I hear you're only a tot, not even in his teens. Not only from Deo, but from MANY others. How the phuck are you doing all these impressions?
I reenact Star Trek
SS uniforms were recycled Heer uniforms. All the German uniforms were made to make the soldier look slimmer and more attractive to women.

the Germans had the best uniforms and the best drill in WWII i think, and the SS for uniforms were the best of the best
Dude, you could've just wrote 16 when you're not. Shitton of wee lads do that. I personally know you're very wee wee lad because you were in my regiment shortly. Your voice bring me headache and only babies can do that.

Well, tbh, I dont know the exact difference between different SS units. I am talking about the horrible black SS uniforms. I know there are SS units in "proper" uniforms, but right now I cant get a picture of them in my head. They probably do not look to bad though.
For me anything earlier than WW1, really out of the question, its just too close...
huehuehue
Sadly I don't do Winter nor Continuation war. I don't like getting my brains blown out from 25 kilometer away.
There is. WW2. A lot of it, and high quality.Oh, gotta get my uniform ready..
Civil War was best
And they almost never misfire + on high winds the powder doesn't fly in your face when opening the pan.
Still, ain't nothing in this world comparable to the beauty of a flintlock.
The fun is the delay of the shot and the powder flying in your face. Its all apart of the experience.
I know a fellow that had a cartridge in his hand while firing
I used to do Civil War reenactment with the Red River Battalion,but now I've started to get into the early Pike and Shot era as LandsknechtPretty Cool time to reenact. Do you use a Matchlock?
by that Civil War in poll you mean English Civil War too ?Pretty sure it means ACW, but why not?
I currently don't have the cash to drop on the few Matchlocks I see for sale; so I am using a Pike and cuirass until I can find a well priced Matchlock.I used to do Civil War reenactment with the Red River Battalion,but now I've started to get into the early Pike and Shot era as LandsknechtPretty Cool time to reenact.

I've begun to look into joining a Victorian group called "The Diehard Company" they do Crimea, Zulu, Home service and Boar war as the 57th (West Middlesex) Regiment of Foot and The Middlesex Regiment (1881 period onward) who's nick name is "The Die Hards".That sounds really cool actually, I'm very jelly. I can't think of many Indian War units in the US for reasons.

Mainly Union infantry, with Confederate infantry portrayals from time to time. As I get more funds I personally would like to do Franco-Prussian war (1870) (too forgotten period in European history), American Revolution, and 7 Years War (probably mainly American theater).
