Crisis 2013

Being back from the Crisis show in Antwerp here some pictures from the show.
As always a great show, a lot to see. Improvement on the catering were made and afaik no hick ups occured. Not counting of course the blue smoke that was seen some times.
A big thanks to all the members of TSOA for giving us the pleasure of spending our money.

And the link to their "offical report" about Crisis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iau2NneAjUc

Starting with some pictures of our Demo: Guelders vs Guelders or the fight for the inheritance of Guelders in 1373. We (or better peter) had build part of the walls of the city of Venlo under which the armies of both sisters (both possible heirs tho the throne of the deceased duke of Guleders) fought their battle.
