    Welcome Alliance Charlottesville (Virginia!)

    Thank you all for the warm welcome! We're VERY excited for the opportunity to run a chapter of Alliance here in Virginia! As for the website, it does exist (www.alliancecville.com) but currently only contains a link to our Facebook page. I do alright as a web programmer, but my design skills are...

    OK, who wants to buy an abandoned haunted Ren Faire?

    Once we're able to get in to assess the current structural integrity of the buildings, we're hoping that a complete tear-down will not actually be necessary for all of the buildings...We won't know for sure until we try. -Luke

    OK, who wants to buy an abandoned haunted Ren Faire?

    We just heard about this site from some other folks here in Virginia. It's about an hour and a half away from work.... We are beginning some extensive research into the viability of future use for this site as a LARP Park/Ren Faire Site.....if anyone with a Realtor's License in Virginia wants...

    Help For Black Forest Fire Faire (x-post from FB)

    A friend shared this post from her friend on Facebook. Since I know some of you are involved in the Faire scene in CO, I thought I might find someone here available to help out. Please respond here or PM me if you are able to assist with this. - Luke

    Map and Lore

    You may hear people refer to "The Mysts" in-game. These are a strange phenomenon that is used in-game to explain how characters can quickly go from one place to another and how there can be such different places around the world that aren't really connected. The entire "planet" is called...

    Boots/Boot Solutions

    Anyone have an "in" with the local SCA community? I know someone out in California who happened upon an apprentice Cobbler in the SCA who re-soled the boots for very little. Also might want to just ask around to a few more shoe repair shops by calling and talking to them. Or if you have...

    Armor Representation Materials

    2-point....Since that site seems to be using the metric measuring system and that armor is made with 17ga rings, I'm guessing that it's 17ga SWG (Standard Wire Gauge), not AWG (American Wire Gauge). For 3-point armor, you must have 14ga AWG (or 16ga SWG) rings. It's off by just enough to make...

    Funny pictures

    It was supposed to be released a couple years ago (the panel at SDCC was 2011, I think)...they had issues with the production company or something. They just got a new distributor a couple months ago who has promised to release it "soon"...I'm estimating sometime in the first half of 2014 and I...

    New Props Department- Positions Available!

    (part 2 of 2)..."green", and "dark cork green"...I'm also willing to throw on a couple pair of their "indigo" because the picture looks more like a "wine" and I think that's in your color range, but I'm wary of the color name. All I need is a shipping address or I can use the chapter address...

    New Props Department- Positions Available!

    Since I haven't received a response to the email I sent to the props address, I'm going to plan (unless told otherwise) on sending even amounts of "tan", "brown", "dark maroon", ...(to be continued due to attachment limits)

    Introductions

    Hi, I'm Luke! My home is currently in Virginia and I'm currently deployed, but since I've been totally trolling your section of the boards, I figured I'd go ahead and introduce myself so that you all don't wonder too much about who I am and why I'm butting in to your business. I've been into...

    Boots/Boot Solutions

    I've found that most department stores have a decent selection for women's boots, but not men's...at least not any that would work well for LARPing. Just keep your eyes open every time you go and you might find just the right boot for the right price! Or you could save up like I did and...

    Boots/Boot Solutions

    Here's a decent decision tree for LARP footwear: http://www.kingdomsofnovitas.net/forums ... topic=5861 Or you could see if there is a cobbler at your local SCA group (or any good shoe repair shop) and they could re-sole your boots for you.

    Spellbook phys rep

    A Spellbook tag is about a 5"x5" printed piece of paper with every spell in a particular school of magic listed on it, along with some signatures and dates to prove that it's valid. This tag should be FIXED in your spellbook phys. rep., somehow (usually inside the front or back cover) and will...

    A question about goblin points for monthly base xp blanket

    Re: A question about goblin points for monthly base xp blank Sorry, I think I got your policies mixed with another chapter's....so, to amend my statement, IF your character's Home Chapter offers monthly blankets, then you can get that with Gobbies, as long as you have enough of them to spend on...
