25.01.2022 "The standardization of military armour was the one of, in my opinion, the key factors for the victory of the Sovereign Empire during the War of the Black Rose.... and the Soldiers Armour was one of the leading designs..." - Lessons of the War of the Black Rose, High scholar Clavius von Richter. https://www.epicarmoury.com//soldier-compl/c-297/p-27268/ This low-fantasy design is meant to fit an assortment of characters, and is inspired by historical medieval armour. Its simple form comes in a range of sizes, and can easily be used by most people thanks to its curve and ability to overlap beneath the arms. The plate rests at the hips and has small rolled flanges around its edges. https://www.epicarmoury.com//infantry-mediu/c-297/p-27328/ #epicquestion #fellandfair #epicarmoury #epicarmourymetalworks #epicarmourygear #epicarmourleatherworks #larp #larping #larparmour #bylarpersforlarpers Epicarmoury.com

25.01.2022 IMPORTANT PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENT The Stronghold Master Collection was marketed as maintenance free, but we have recently learned that the paint finish on the blades will be damaged due to friction caused by the soft density of the foam upon impact. After additional tests we have found out that a coating of Epic Armoury Maintenance Silicone spray, or Protection Gel, reduces this friction and preserves the finish. Marks on LARP weapons are to be expected, especially darker ti...nted ones, even with a protective coatings after prolonged usage. But these occur far sooner than they should on the Stronghold Master Collection. We want to make clear that this issue only affects the paint finish of the blade and not the integrity of the foam itself. This does however, in our eyes, mean that we cannot in full honesty say that these swords are maintenance free. We are usually very diligent and thorough with our testing, but this issue was not discovered in our initial product tests, and for that we apologize. We will no longer be marketing the Stronghold Master Collection as maintenance free, and further sales of the range are temporarily suspended as we alter that. We will also ensure all Stronghold items will be coated once sales resume. Those of you that have already purchased and received Stronghold Master Collection swords prior to July 6th are eligible for a remedy of this situation.

25.01.2022 As the #WizardWar continued, the #wizard council realised the time for #honour had passed and that they must blend in amoung the #mortals. Their #wands could no longer be openly carried we're they to blend. Adapting to the techniques of the violent peasants around them they concealed the #holster beneath their #arms, ready to #duel or defend themselves no matter the situation, be it an #Epic #magic #battle or a back alley muggling. The #EpicArmoury #wandholder now comes avail...able in a #concealedcarry harness version. The durable #leather will last through physical manoeuvres for when your #counterspell may fail ensuring you're up to a fight beyond a mere boy wizard. Suitable for a wide variety of wands, be they from #Ollivanders' or Ocka Muggo's Jenwyn Wande Shoppe, our holsters will just as easily draw as they will conceal any wand (may not be suitable for rods or staves without Reducio) See more

24.01.2022 We know our gear is coolthentic enough use in a LOT of TV and theatrical productions, but apparently its good enough to frighten people into calling in an armed response team in the UK... ... so we guess please dont scare the mundane folk out there? https://www.dailymail.co.uk//Armed-police-swooped-swordsma

24.01.2022 If a #Zombie #Apocalypse were ever really going to happen, 2020 is definitely the candidate year. But if 2020 has taught us anything it's that viral problems stick around even longer than the news cycle. Good thing the #DarkMoon range has something for that too! Our new take one the #MPL50 is just what the #Undertaker ordered. A sturdy. open faced #tactical #shovel for all your #undead #elimination and #burial needs.

24.01.2022 "[...]From the Aldarian mountains of the Soverign Empire to the Twisting Caverns of Stygia, you will find them. Vile creatures of savage nature, one more bloo...d thirsty and cruel than the last.

The Ruinous War P. 242 https://bit.ly/2TSomy3 A Ruinous character carry many names, most of which are unkind, where death and war resides, so too will Ruinous characters, they take thrill in battle and will not relent until their enemy is driven before them or eradicated completely. The Ruinous Hordes encompass many different races, being put together less from race but instead from either bloodthirst or ruthlessness.

23.01.2022 With the continuing good news regarding our Covid infection rates, or lack thereof, we will be reopening the showroom to the general public without the need for an appointment. Customers will still need to use hand sanitiser and fill our contact tracing log on arrival, and masks still remain mandatory by state law. We continue to ask that customers coming to pick up orders bring a printed copy of their order as proof of purchase. We look forward to seeing you all once more.

22.01.2022 Good news for the larger warriors today! We are aware that a lot of larger people would like chainmail, but in the past we haven't serviced those sizes except for some of our old sets of the rivetted (and commensurately pricier), chain. We're getting our epically affordable Ragnar and Alaric designs of chain made in the next two sizes up and are now taking pre-orders.... https://epicarmoury.com.au/armour/chain/

21.01.2022 For the sake of keeping everyone up to date It seems our most recent delivery has been delayed at ports once again. Stock that should have been here for the Halloween period FINALLY has a date for a quarantine inspection: Friiidaaay the 13th - so it'll probably be more bad news. We are likely to receive it about a week later... On that note we may be short a few things this Christmas because the next shipment is experiencing a similar level of delay so please don't leave your gift buying to the last minute this year.

11.01.2022 EVENT ANNOUNCEMENT It is with a heavy heart that we must postpone the 2020 Barossa Medieval Fair. We had hoped that restrictions on major events and large... scale gatherings would have been eased enough to allow us to plan and consider the event in full. Unfortunately whilst restrictions are being eased we have been notified that large scale events and gatherings that fit our event description are still an unknown and have been placed on a future consideration list after step 3 has been enacted. Consequently as it takes considerable time to plan, organise and run this event. We could not risk commencing planning for this event in under 3 months whilst still not having any certainty for interstate involvement as well as being able to hold the event on any scale. We know to some this will come as disappointing and we always strive to run an event that is safe for all patrons, reenactment groups and stalls. However in the current climate we do not wish to rush back into running at full capacity, nor cause a newer outbreak that could risk the safety of anyone involved with the event. We could also not take the risk of a significant financial hit to the event based on social distancing or any number of limits imposed health and safety wise. This would be unfair on our traders and stallholders as well as participants of the event as it would effect and raise costs for all involved. Once more clarification has emerged regarding larger events we will advise as to our intention for the fair for 2020. At present there is no timeline for stage 3 or beyond and that uncertainty is something that a larger event can not risk. Stallholders, stakeholders and reenactors will he contacted via email and message regarding this later today. If you wish to show your support for the fair, please consider purchasing one of our NEW* Barossa Medieval Fair shirts. By sending us a message A GLIMPSE OF HOPE FOR OUR FEAST!!! We are currently looking at the logistics of running a Barossa Medieval Feast for 2020 that will comply with safety guidelines and still be 100% medieval fair and atmosphere related. It would obviously have capped numbers and be a dining and entertainment evening. (More details to come)
