Reece has mentioned before that he was born without the leg.

HAHAHA! No... :P -Reece

Perhaps, but I like the look of the wooden leg. Let's people know I do this as an amputee 😁-Reece

Greig Burges, glade you enjoyed it! When the weather gets better expect more videos covering techniques ;) -Reece

Weather wasn't great here either guys, can't imagine trying to fight in armour when it's near forty degrees. I've heard surcoats were a way of protecting the armour from the weather, would is also act like an insulating layer to prevent armour heating up too much in say summer?

Yeah, we've heard that as well. Ben and I plan to get surcoats made soon, but it'll be warmer weather when they're completed. If it's cold we might still attempt to practice, cuz we're crazy and dedicated lol. I'm generally curious how it would feel, as we know metal is a heat sync, it'll feel a lot colder. Question: For times when the weather is bad, what sort of videos would you like to see? We can cover a range of topics for discussion. -Reece

When the weather is too bad for filming outside stuff, there is book stuff you can do, like if you know what you want to do in the next practical video, you can prep your audience with some manual stuff before hand. People might think that's a little boring. Have you lads talked about why you chose those particular armours before?

fantastic video as always! I love these episodes a little more nerd ahahah and if I can give my opinion too I would like to see some comparison between the different types of armor that you and the other guys in the company have, for example differences between the size of the mail's rings and what are the pros and cons of having mail above or below the arm harness or to have a brigandine or a "normal" cuirass and some advice on books weapons(i see you will made the next video about it) etc. I focused a bit too much on the mail but there are many other things you can talk about a quick question, what are your chausses made of? wool?

Excellent! We're glade you thought so! -Reece

Thanks! We have made a video reviewing this sword as well as a Col Steel waister. Be sure to check it out and let us know what you think! 😁-Reece

NekoVeil, thank you! We're glade you liked it :) we're both waiting for our custom mail from Tom. We'll be doing a overview and review on that when it arrives. That's been on the to do list for some time lol. -Reece

Nope, what you see is what we wear :) Arming clothes seem to be enough. You see in historical sources that's all they wear too, as the plate armour is enough protection for most things. You do see padding and mail back behind the legs is several effigies and we hope to add those later on to see what we can learn about them. Thanks for the comment! Hope you enjoyed the video! -Reece

You should keep in mind that armour is made to protect against many different attacks. Modern HMB and reenactor equipment only has to defend against blunt impacts, and you see extreme (and inaccurate) amounts of padding.

Right, we were just showing what we've used, as we've been asked a lot. Gonna try out best to be there again this year. We'll see what happens. -Reece

Would be cool to met you at Lauschröden, last year Arne invited me, but i had no time to participate :-/ Therefore my brother and I will be there for this year. So hopefully we see us there.

Various vendors. Our arming doublets came from Historic Enterprises.-Reece
