Thanks Tint,
Actually amazingly me and john are about a century apart. He portrays a 15th century German landsneckt (Although he has been known to portray a Tudor era English nobleman) and I portray a 14th century Swiss landowner( And a 14th century Kievan Rus when the mood strikes)
Neither one of us would normaly be playing with the sling and/or staff sling (In our main time periods). We would both be carrying crossbows ( which we both own) for missle weapons. For hand weapons I would be carrying a halbred ( Yep, I have one) and a baselard ( Ditto) as a back up weapon and he would be carrying a pike ( Which he owns) and a katzbalger or a dagger as his sidearm.
But we definately have side intrests as well, Mine is obviously the sling/staffsling along with a few other weapon styles outside of my area of portrayal. His is siege engines/warfare.
All in all it makes us a very intresting group.

Your outfits made it all the better. If i were living in that time I'd be carring a staff sling and a sling everywhere I go.
