Awesome information. I think with all that taken into account, all my questions have been answered, and some I didn't even ask were! Thanks a ton, once again glad to be here and see how friendly everyone is.

If you can talk Casper or someone else into to bringing theirs to work with you in, that would be tremendously more beneficial! Things that feel marginally effective when you're not in armour suddenly work like gangbusters when you're more top-heavy and your mobility in the joints is more limited by the armours articulation points. I'd love to see an entire room full of armoured men and women in August :D

It will be great to fence with you again. My knee holds me back a bit, but my 80% capability still lets me do okay for awhile. :wink: :lol:
