Not as cool as here, but still good sites
Oct 23^rd, 2005 at 10:00am

Found a couple sites over the weekend. The first one is about medieval history. It also has a forum. My screen name there is Possible genius

http://www.shadowedrealm.com/

This one is about siege engines. I think it has been posted before but I'm not sure.

And this is just an artical someone posted on Shadowed Realm. I enjoyed it.

None of these are nearly as good as Chris's site here. But these have good info too.

If I build it, they will run.&&-Mikeel&&&&

Welcome to the forums Jieming Grin

Nope, we talk about all kinds of crazy weapons. Some of the people here have some pretty goofy ideas for weapons. Some of us are serious nutcases ( no offence...everyone Tongue

)

Just check out the "Other Primitive Weapons" section of the forum

Must be from Southern China Hey While I have your undivided attention, how about looking for some local indigenous slingers in your neck of the woods. Maybe they might have a local made sling or two that they would like to part with? Keep in touch.

Hey!! Liang_Jieming. Cool to see ya here.
Alot of slinging and most primitive weapons are discussed here. I've been wondering, what does your avator mean?

Here is a photo gallery of some of Liang_Jieming's stuff. http://forums.shadowedrealm.com/index.php?automodule=gallery&cmd=sc&cat=1
His stuff is the first 8 pictures. He makes some REALLY cool models. Some of them I have never heard of before.

If I build it, they will run.&&-Mikeel&&&&

Hi!

This forum looks like a great place! Nice feel to it.

My Avatar? That's my name! Or more accurately, that's a seal of my name in "seal" script which reads Liang Jie Ming.

I started building the SiJiao Pao on shadowedrealm if you're interested. Will be giving the same commentary as I build it like I did with the previous models.
