Audacious Articles

 

“Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth.”

– V (Hugo Weaving), V for Vendetta (2005)

 

Between adventures, our scribes gather news from the far corners of the world to be diligently shared at the tavern. The best of our stories become part of these audacious articles. Truth be told, these stories are still only a fledgeling bunch compared to other esteemed collections, but make sure to return from time to time for exciting news. Something wicked this way comes!

TELL THE STORY!

Eventide

“Our patience stretches longer than your lifespan. The impatient sometimes claim that we fled the diurnal demons. That we were banished. That we vanished. Turns out that you knew nothing. As you looked to the canopy, we quietly tended the roots below. But we were meant for more. Soon the night shall rise to the day. Soon the sun shall be stygian. Soon awaits the Eventide.”

For the first time in our company's history, we have made something that goes beyond a single kit or armour set and offers more items that could fit any single character. The Eventide Collection is our first full design collection that spans several classic character classes and a myriad of epic combinations. If you breathe too loud, they might shoot you in the dark. There will be mourning in the evening!

Long Rest

Home is where the Wi-Fi connects automatically – unless you are on the road of adventure! When not enduring the perils of circumstance, far away from what is safe and known, home is where you recover and rest between quests and battles. But how do you raise your canvas tent properly so that you can enjoy a Long Rest? Brian the Bold knows!

Curved Cores

With blades, you only sometimes wish to go straight to the point! For many years the safety of a decent foam sword has relied upon a straight glass fibre core, thus limiting the designs of the blade. For too long, characters in need of curved blades have been left wanting. No more! Behold the Curved Cutlass, Curved Sabre and Curved Elven Sword.

Dark Tales

After every warm and waning summer, the nights will inevitably grow longer. Some say darker too. As the bullying winds announce the arrival of autumn, the veil between our world and the other side grows thinner with every breath of nightmare. Soon the dark tales are told on sombre and stormy nights. Dare you become eerily inspired?

Tent Poles!

Tent poles undoubtedly serve a crucial practical purpose when camping with a mediaeval-inspired canvas tent during an adventure. However, the length of the poles is an obvious disadvantage for everyone travelling by a regular car, donkey or mule. To ease this logistical headache we are delighted to introduce our new compact and convenient tent pole system.

Safety First!

While our designers strive to provide the most beautiful and detailed weapon selected for the myriad of brave heroes, insidious villains, devout faithful and driven infidels, there is one priority above them all: Safety. Despite the perils ahead, it is crucial that you, as an esteemed adventurer, can always trust your gear. Therefore, we have updated our page describing product safety and quality – even hinting towards the secret sauce within every Stronghold blade!

Adventure!

“The distant fields before her seemed tranquil as ever. Apart from the crude human agriculture that scarred the landscape, Veri’en almost found the scenery beautiful. Almost. She sensed that Garm was getting bored. Although he was patient for a human adult, she also knew that the younger races had the drive to act. It was their greatest strength and weakness. The thought formed a subtle smile on her face, but at that moment, she saw something move towards them a few miles into the horizon. It was time to act.”

The beauty of the acted adventure – an ActVenture! – is your preparation to become the main character of your own story. However, as the preparation may seem daunting, we have assembled a few tips to take the first bold steps in a journey of a thousand miles! It is important to remember that LARP, like everything else, requires practice and that character creation is part of the adventure rather than a means to an end.

Tweaks & Tales!

No adventure comes completely prepackaged! The embarking adventurers will always add something special to make the experience unique. However, gear choice is not a dichotomy between purchased or homemade. Features such as the tie-on system, products such as mountables and creative modifications enable you to modify the gear and tweak your character!

The EirikR Sword

“Someone capable of having the Osted Sword made, with that degree of detail and quality in the blade and hilt decorations, is at the top of society. We are dealing with someone who is very close to the king – if not the king himself!”

Have you ever dreamt of wielding a Viking sword with a historically authentic design? Then your saga is about to begin! The EirikR Sword is made as a collaboration between artisans of Epic Armoury and archaeologists from Lejre Land of Legends. It is designed to match the Osted Sword found in 1887 near the town of Osted in Lejre, Denmark. Due to its pattern-welded blade and the herringbone ornamentation with silver and copper on the crossguard and pommel, archaeologists assess that the sword most likely belonged to a king or a highly esteemed housecarl.

Look no further! Here are six patrician points for your upcoming knighthood!
