5/28/2016

Comments

 
Hosted by Peter Woodward, Conquest is a TV series about weapons from throughout history. This show was recommended by Michael, our Training Committee Chair, who found it while doing research and thought it would be an interesting addition to the blog. Well, he thought right! 

Roman Weapons is Episode 6 of Season 2. It aired on August 17th, 2003. Here's the synopsis from TV.com:
Conquest is a documentary show by the History Channel, which demonstrates the technologies and tactics used by conquering armies over the centuries. In Roman Weapons, the Conquest team uses detailed replicas of the weapons used by the Ancient Romans, along with re-enactments, to show how the Romans achieved their victories. ​

Hosted by Peter Woodward, Conquest is a TV series about weapons from throughout history. This show was recommended by Michael, our Training Committee Chair, who found it while doing research and thought it would be an interesting addition to the blog. Well, he thought right! 

The Axeman Cometh is Episode 4 of Season 2. It aired on July 23rd, 2003. Here's the synopsis from TV.com:
Actor and fight master Peter Woodward guides viewers back to a time when knowing how to swing an ax meant the difference in life and death. Our experts practice with the Viking single- and double-headed types and learn that in the right hands these difficult and exhausting weapons had no equal. We also examine the berserker, an ax-wielding Viking warrior who worked himself into a state of concentrated fury. Finally, we look at the double-headed Saxon ax that was nearly the size of a man. ​

​Greetings from your Friendly Neighborhood Documentarian!  As part of LANCE's ongoing efforts to record as much of our activities (and antics) as possible, we've recently completed an overhaul of our photo storage system.  As an awesome side benefit, this means that the photos we have are now freely viewable by all of you! 
 
Collected below are all of our photos from 2015, organized by date.  Albums of note include the first official LANCE event at the Jewett School of the Arts and the first full tournament held at the Cloak and Blaster.

And here we have all of the photos so far from 2016 so far, again organized by date.  Pictures from the Valentine's Tournament at the Cloak and Blaster are here, as well as photos from the LANCE outing to the Bay Area Renaissance Festival.

Of course both links also have all of the pictures from our training days, too, as well as other miscellaneous events.  Check it out!
