Another Russian fun to dress into the medieval Russian warriors, then build some castles of wood logs and play real time 3d strategies, without using computers, but with real iron weapons. Some parties also use fire to burn the castle down and occupy it.

first!!
‘Rus’ warriors did not look like this. these people saw too much IVANHOE movies!!! Rus warriors dressed in molting bear skins and had prehistoric lada’s.
OMG Russians are copying Hollywood style historical dresses again
Doesn’t the Ivanhoe name resemble something, does it? May be he was Russian Ivan?
I’d rather say they look like medieval crusaders then Slavic warriors.
It seems that in this play Slavic warriors are protecting the fortress and German crusaders are attacking. These guys represent both sides.
I want to say that I am very scared of wars or dying, I am glad that there is a little less fighting in this century.
I like guns though, shooting real guns and playing Counter-Strike!
Don’t worry, Vektor, dying is only annoying the first time, once you get used to it it is not as bad as people think it is.
They got too much time on their hands
Re-enacting Aleksandr Nevsky?
There’s a serious lack of females there. I guess dorks everywhere have trouble getting laid.
I love it… like being nine years old again. I never had my own fort though.
Laire! I killed the king!
This kind of games is popular worldwide, not only in Russian.
But the people’s costumes looks more like medieval Europe than old Russian..
…which is most probably because the theme of this particular game has nothing to do with Russia.
The guys defending the fort look somewhat like “Russian knights” …you can tell by their helmet shape and chain mail armor with leather which was typically the Viking/Middle Eastern warrior look.
The guys attacking look nothing less than French/Germanic knights of some order.
looks like it’s a re-enactment of a crusade…or something of that sort.
Catholic nations had tried a couple times to “Christionize” ancient Rus people. An example of this is when the Teutonic Order conflicted Grand Duke Alexander Nevsky of Novgorod’s army at lake Peipus (near Pskov and modern day Estonia)
I like skipping and picking wildflowers as much as the next man but this is just gay
Wow this looks like that role-playing game McLovin and his friends were playing in “Role Models”. What’s the Russian word for “dork”, “nerd”, or “geek”?
there isn’t really… the closest thing i can think of is “ochkarik” (means four-eyes…referring to studious, “really good at school” type kids)
no dorks in russian language. sry
Damn i want to take some time place in medieval fight
One side of the conflict is clearly the “Order of the Teutonic Knights of St. Mary’s Hospital in Jerusalem” (quite a mouthful, huh
) or simply “The Order of Teutonic/German Knights”. The giveaway is black cross on the white background used on the clothing and shields.
I admit I do not recognize the other coats of arms.
omg that suck, get some proper hooray in Moscow instead =D
there is nothing more honorable than to take your enemy’s head off with a blunt piece of metal.
The American version is called the SCA (SCA.org). No fire, no live steel, but large rattan poles that still hurt like there’s no tomorrow.
