Special mention to Howard, who uses all the camoflage techniques he knows at this time of year. Many a base was defended by him being dug in nearby ready to knife the unsuspecting..

Thanks to all those that took part, it was a great day, and in our opinion this stuff is the most difficult and authentic 15th C combat in re-enactment. Any kind of score on any of the Key Performance Indicators is something to be proud of 🙂
Tournament Stud have just agreed to let use their site in Janary, plus a weekend next May so watch this space

In the meantime, enjoy some Christmas cheer with a little clip of Dale returning a captured flag, Kate Bush style…

Nodo Firmo, baby.
