Kasteeltuinen Arcen Eastern Medieval weekend

As in the previous message was told, we were invited to display our 1507 demo at the new small medieval museum at the Arcen castle

.Reenactors arriving through the gate.

the entrance to the museum

Hands in the pocket; it was really cold, some 5 degrees and the doors need to stay open.

 As the lighting was not ready yet the pictures aren't of the best quality.

Our 1507 demo

Impressions of the museum

a knight is watching our demo

We hadn't any time to visit the medieval market, battles, demonstrations etc. We only saw the guns from the museum going to play their part in the reenactment battles

Followed by the powder

Our Website: www.aldegarde.nl

Hello,

one way or the other, our website was hacked and we have problems to get it function again.

Gladly, Weebly came to the rescue and we have transferred a lot of material to:

www.aldegarde.weebly.com .

But that's not a problem for the users of the old site as you will be directed directly to the new site.


So we are restoring the site on the weebly adress and deciding on a later moment what to do with the old site.

If you have any questions or would like any additions, please let us know

greetings and a great 2015

Crisis 2014 Antwerp (1)

Crisis 2014 is history already.
As always a great show which earns a big thanks from us for the organising club TSoA and hopefully seeing you all in 2015.
Our demo was positioned, together with other, great demos and participation games, in the second hall. This year this hall had received new lighting so was now a great venue.

As we are just the two of use, we never have sufficient time to go around the stands and tables a lot so only a few photos are underneath.

Although a lot of WWII games were presented, none had a better layout then the battle of Keren. Great innovative terrain looking great.

WWII Flames of War

Battleground game by Gent-Brugge club 

Another WW2 game going on

A modern war, good looking table.
