Civil War news..............

Postby Centurion Dan » Tue Aug 07, 2012 7:03 pm

Just read this and thought it was brilliant. A 60 year old civil war re-enactor takes on a knife wielding thug - and wins!

I thought he looked familiar, this is the page I've been using to sort some of my ECW army:

Being in the UK I'm sure the robber will sue the guy next week for a twinge in the shoulder and psychological stress caused to him during the incident...and being the UK he will win.
It has been made very clear by members and Paul I am not welcome on this forum because I don't bend over and agree with everything warlord does.

Unfortunately I don't care what any of you think...at all.
