Hello all! MY name is Marvin, long time lurker, first time poster. I am very new to the world of Roman reenacting, although not reenacting itself. I have done American Civil War, and currently do early 19th century, including being part of the crew on a reconstructed keelboat. I live in Arkansas about 3 hours from Lafe, and I have been to the fort a few times, but I haven't been to Clash yet. I am going to be working on a Ceaser/Gallic wars impression, and am starting to collect gear. This is somewhat more mind boggling that doing Civil War, so I may have lots of dumb questions. Right now I am working on my second balteus, for my gladius. I already have one that I made for my pugio. Next step will be trying to get rid of the Gallic H that I have and getting a Montefortino or other appropriate helmet.
