Were increasing our Kits for Napoleonic Reenactment. We just purchased 2 Original Charleville 1777 Flintlock muskets, a new cartridge box sling and a greatcoat.
Additionally, we purchased a shako, a new pair of trousers, a new shirt, a new canteen, a new breadbag and one new mug.

In Eindhoven next week I will also buy a new cartridge box and, if it fits, a new gilet vest.

Hurray for spending way to much money on this stuff!

because, they're original charlevilles... Isn't that unsafe to use original guns and muskets?

They are in perfect condition. And no, people in Europe do that everywhere. In fact, Dutch law makes it easier to use an original firearm than a repro.

Weapons still need to be fireproofed. You are not allowed to shoot it without the necessary licenses and stamps on the barrel.


Gathering depot gear for the 85e?

Well yeah, but not officially. More like depo gear for ourselfs :P So we can invite people to join us for an event.
That being said, I dont think the 85e dislikes the idea of finally having more muskets.

I will send some pics once they arrived. We got a good offer on an French Website. 800 for both. I.e. 400 each.
It is one full length 1777 and one short version, probably for dragoons. Either way, they look good, are original and now we finally have enough firearms for everyone.

No. The Paypal money is going into the game/company. Only that.


That is what is currenlty on there. Remember that this is not donation money. This is money that we transferred from our Company Bank account. We spent all the Donation money already. On models, sounds, music, licenses etc. The money on our Company Bank account is completely our own money. Money that we invested from our personal funds.

So far we spend all the PayPal money and at least 10k Euro per person into the company. Addionally, some of us have spend more money on the company. I for example spend an additional 7000 on it.

So don't even ask. We are not spending a single cent of donation money on something that is not related to the company/game. In fact we spend thousands of Euros out of our personal accounts, to get the game going.

You don't have any funds left from NW?
Probably one of the very few old-timers here who hasn't been a regimental leader.

Sappeurs also used the Charleville carbines
