Here in the good ol' America, Muskets goes from 800 and above.  Then ACW musket goes from 400 and above.  Don't do napoleonic in Arizona, that's just plain dumb. WATERLOO IN MIDDLE OF DESERT, QUICK EVERYONE HOLD THE OASIS.

Ey ill fite u bud. Rookie mistake implying arizona has even small amounts of water

Yeah I can't imagine Napoleonic being any good in Arizona, its just not the climate and flora for it.
Napoleon's Egyptian campaigns?

Campaign in Spain considering some parts of Spain are very dry and a wasteland just like Arizona.

That be true.   I would just say the cheapest and surefire amount of events justifying your amount of spending would be ACW.

I wonder if Indian war reenacting is a thing in which case there would probs be tons of it in Arizona. Some of our retirement communities also have Vietnam vets do living history events

Go ahead i'd like to see you go bucknaked with your $1.99 plastic bow against Aryans men in blue uniform wielding miniguns and chainsaws in other hand like we've been taught in our every frickin history class.


Vietnam reenacting another thing you could do, cheap as well since all the stuff you can find is at the surplus shop, i recommend it if you enjoy killing charlies. 10/10.

Killing Charlies by day, hearing the veterans' horror story by night while charlie is still creeping around. 50/10.

The armies of the revolution have no limits!
Unless it's a fortified position.
Or they don't have overwhelming numerical superiority.
Or Napoleon isn't leading them.
¡Vive la revolution!

Placed orders for a bunch of the stuff for my backpack, going to get a razor from MacFarthingbowls when they have them back in stock.

Does anyone know somewhere that does giberne covers, do Shakos GBL do them? If so that'd be good because they made my giberne.
