Reenactment Groups List

Quote
Historical reenactment is a scripted educational or entertainment activity in which participants follow a prearranged plan to recreate aspects of a historical event or period—often a military engagement or display. This may be as narrow as a specific moment from a battle, such as the reenactment of Pickett's Charge presented during the Great Reunion of 1913, or as broad as an entire period, such as Regency reenactment or The 1920s Berlin Project.

Intro

I'm not sure wheter it's a good idea to put Nap. and ACW together in one box.

I appreciate the sentiment, although it was made as more of an archive for quick and easy browsing rather than putting users in a position where they have to ask via forum post. I'll admit that I cocked up the ordering a little bit, particularly by putting ACW and Nap Wars together; I'll probably restructure it in a similar fashion to Millander's post from April.

I won't be adding any links that don't have a website either unless on the off chance that they have a thread on here.

If you want to find a reenactment unit in your area, there are organisations that have lists, like in Australia we have the ARLHO and the ALHF.

This thread is no doubt pointless.

Reenactment is based around research, there is so many things to take into factor when choosing a reenacting unit such as are they government approved, are they safe

This list will only help idiots who think that they should go with a unit without doing any research on it at all.
