Let's discuss: Reenacting!

[Vorposten]

Wow. A duel.    What? Not tommorrow?.... 

Hmmm, maybe later this year? 

[Mr T]

Heading off Thursday early morning

[Forest]

I will be fighting in the blistering heat of Monmouth this weekend. Best of luck to all of you at Waterloo.

[Colonel Howe]

Nipplestockings brought this up to me in a conversation and I'd be very interesting to know the answer

Is anyone aware if Soviet partisan reenactment groups exist? That sounds awesome and I would totally join a group if they indeed existed

[DeoVindice61]

1st Anti Fascist battalion or company I think.  Not sure what's the last bit but yeah they do partisan stuff, recent one was Leningrad, I think they went as police-volunteer or something like that. Atlantic coast based. 

Munk is or was part of them, contact him if u want more info or the right direction.

There's actually a handful of partisan units in the NE US. One of the largest are the "Factory Worker Brigade;" They just went to Newville, PA "Ostfront" event last year in attendance with 24. The unit I am now in captured them and warcrimed them, haha. Executions for all partisan schwein.

[Captain America]

Yeah there's quite a few to my knowledge, though they all seem to be American units If I ever get rich I'm 100% setting up a Soviet or Yugoslav partisan unit over here

[Colonel Howe]

I assume none of these dirty Slavs have websites because I'm not finding em ((

[Duuring]

You don't have to be rich to set up a soviet unit.

[Nipplestockings]

How exactly does modern (ww2 more specifically) reenactment work in places like Europe where firearms are so heavily restricted? Seems like it would be a hassle.

[Duuring]

They're not heavily restricted. Compared to the USA, okay, yes, but the gun laws are strictest in my country and even there it's very much possible to get a license for a WW2 fire-arm. You definitaly have to put some work into it, though.

True true, but I'd rather like to have my kit actually complete first, gonna take some more dollar than I have now alas

[zac]

Been asked to do a CW impression for an event next year, so anyone have any suggestions of an impression with which i could still use my flintlock musket?

Thanks

[kpetschulat]

Irish Brigade, Federal. Still had smoothbore old-style muskets.

[Captain America]

Any early war impressions really should be ok
