Knight: ⦠What the fuck
OH FUCK YES I GET TO TALK ABOUT LANTERN SHIELDS.
For anyone seeing this post and wondering what kind of unholy heresy is currently having a blacksmithing orgy in front of their eyes, this is called a Lantern Shield.
This came from, YOU GUESSED IT, fucking Italy, home of lunatic steel-weaving mother fuckers who often simply looked at each other, and by each other, I mean their frenzied reflections in their shattered mirrors, and saidĀ āWHAT IF WE JUST DO THINGSā, which is, as we all know, Aunt Jemimaās recipe for success.
Lantern Shields were very indicative: They were meant to be bucklers that could carry a lantern, oftentimes for night time duels. Now, youāre wondering, why carry a lantern on a night duel when it could just prove detrimental to your overall movement? Why, to blind the mother fucker, of course! But, see, and this is the funny thing about Italy, when Italian blacksmiths realized that they could just add a hook to a buckler, they noticed they could also just add whatever the thrice condemned shit they wanted to them, so they started forging stakes, spikes, and blades that protruded out of the buckler and gauntlet as additional defense against anyone who, due to the poor visibility of mist shrouded, dark blanketed nights, would just walk right into your handheld barracks.
I mean, nothing better than a bloke closing the distance to you losing an eye or six because they didnāt consider you might just carry a porcupine on your arm, right?
Some specimens exists, but these are not numerous. If you know of or possess an actual, physical Lantern Shield, congratulations, you probably have an item that likely killed.
Given the fact that yeah, youād need to be completely demented and more than a bit overdramatic to come up with something like this, Iām 100% unsurprised this shield also appears in medieval Russia.Ā
Only they made it pink, because of reasons.

YEAH YEAH YEAHH
Idk if thatās called armour and idc. Thatās definitely armour now
Helms of Passing Strangers
Huh. . .
Reenactor throws a spear at a drone
What a time to be alive.
āThe medieval warrior, realizing the consequences of his impulsive act, immediately approached the owner of the drone and offered to pay for the damage.
The owner of the drone was so impressed by the brilliant attack that he suggested organizing a competition for bringing down ādragonsā with short spears next year.
Drone owners have another year to develop a unique ādragon-likeā design for their flying machines.ā (x)
I am 100% cooler with this knowing that the spear-thrower realizedĀ āoops maybe I shouldnāt have done thatā and tried to make it right, andĀ that the guy who the drone belonged to was cool with it
just so everyone knows, this has already been memorialized in a runestone
Everything about this post blesses those involved with a +4 on their next Today is Good Day roll
a rough translation of the inscription on the runestone:
On the seventh day of May in the year of 2016 on hither spot the mighty warrior Ulf hath slain a dragon with his spear.
so yeah, happy birthday to this dragon-slaying event and to it only

Yippee medieval armor!!!
Itās the final few days of the Bluminarmour Project! After some issues with Kickstarter letās see how far we can get!
If you want to see fantasy tropes, historical movement and silly tricks tested in authentic full plate armour, please consider chucking a few quid over (or like and share this post):
Blumineck is trying to fun a video series doing fun and serious historical and fantasy testing in fitted plate armour.
Update on this:
Kickstarter removed my highest funding tier so I lost £11k of funding since earlier today.
BUT
Iāve managed to get the deadline extended in light of this. So this might still happen!
Weāre into the last week now! This is close enough that I think this could actually happen, but itās still got a way to go!
If this is something that interests you, please consider donating or sharing!

The Royal Armouries let me play about in their armour!
(This was a set from someone similar in size to me, but it wasnāt exactly correct in all dimensions. Real knights often wore armour that was made to measure, which would allow for a slightly better range of motion. However, for a video game or film character that has looted armour, then something that fits as well as this would be a best case scenario, so it still tells us a fair bit!)
