Ok /his/ who are my kids dressed as?
stop appropriating my culture
Child soldiers in the Children's Crusade.
I'm not a costume
>>49235
is dat sum Henry V
>>49272
Why the fuck did I laugh?
>>49235
Idk beyond knights... more of a world war 2 guy... but those are really cool. Did you make them?
>>49285
No
>>49303
Yes, cardboard and lots of duct tape
Henry the IV?
>>49526
No... It's a salet my man
>>49235
The shield on the left is French or Norman I believe?
That's all I know
>>50127
No that's a terrible guess
>>49235
William the 1st and his son.
Thanks Total War Medieval (Brutus I think)
>>49235
>not learning blacksmithing 6 months ahead of time and cladding your kids in crude Gothic-style armor made with sheet metal from the hardware store
Look on the bright side: now you have a whole year to prepare for the next one.
>>50842
Rufus. God I miss Rufus. Always made him a glorious heir through crusading. All dat chivalry and command points
>>50934
I am interested in HEMA so I may get into armor building soon enough
Heraldry wise that's the English after Edward III declared himself rightful King of France, so this is post 1370. By the armor and heraldry I'd say Richard III.
>>51165
Finally someone that knows something, ok so who is with him?
>>50975
Oh yeah, Rufus was his name. He and that fucking uphill tutorial.
>>50975
I like Dread better. Bum-rushing 4 units of levy spearmen and routing armies with a 3-2 advantage is always hilarious.
>>51228
Henry Stafford?
>>49235
>tfw no Euroenthusiastic male progeny to wrap in duct tape and LARP with
>>51228
AHA
Now I remember where I've seen that before, that's Stafford's colors, Humphrey Stafford to be specific.
>>51771
>>51771
Good job, yes, it's Sir Humphrey Stafford of Grafton who fought with Richard at Bosworth and afterward attempted the Lovell Rebellion against the ursuper Henry VII.
Granted I would have taken any Henry Stafford since I didn't include the white field and black ermine or Humprhey's brother, Thomas.
>>51536
Start having kids anon.
>>52036
Man, your kids must have been so happy to play such boring characters that nobody gives a shit about
Why didn't you just let them be some cool knight they actually knew something about?
>>49235
I wish my Dad was like you.
>>49235
Are those American kids appropriating the culture of English knights who added lily flowers on their flag in attempt to appropriate French culture?
>>52273
Actually anon, I think the main issue is the father dressing his kids up as traitorous shits. York knows only fail, House Lancaster are the true heirs to the Plantagenet crown.
>>52351
Lancashire please go.
>>50734
He's actually right
This heraldy was effective only under the Plantagenet, who were a French dynasty
The lions were from the Normans (the previous dynasty) and the lilies were added to remind everyone that the family ruling England was French (which gave them a legitimate claim on the French throne)
So yeah, the "three lions + lilies" coat of arm is literally a mix of Norman and French symbols (which defined England very well since it had been keked by both not long before)
>>52393
Remind me what happened to Richard III?
>>52496
>Implying any dynasty in England's history has not been Norman after 1066.
>>52496
It was a terrible guess becuase of he armor anon, he was 300+ years off
>>52653
A reminder that the good guys don't always win
>>51007
I'm pretty new to making armour, but I've got some links here. The archive and these channels helped me a ton. I'm just making helmets for now, got a sallet and a great helm done so far. It's really rewarding.

>crappy King
Victors right the history, anyway it's not like he had a long time to rule to prove his metal. Atleast he died an honorable death.
>>52695
Plantagenets were a French family from Anjou
Tudors were Welsh
Stewarts were Scots
Hanover and Windsor were Germans
All Europe has ruled England but the English
>>53009
Oliver and Richard Cromwell were English.
>>52336
My dad was crap himself anon, be the father you wish you had.
>>53054
Yeah and look how that turned out with Cromwell allowing the Finns back in.
>>53103
There is literally nothing wrong with Finns.
>>53054
They werent even a dynasty, just two faggots
>>53009
>Tudors
Norman
>Stewarts
Norman
>Hanover
Norman
>Windsor
Norman
The only thing Normans do better than conquering is fucking.
>>53176
I don't have pictures of my work, (phone's camera is junk and I don't have a proper camera) but I made the great helm off of Parker's videos and I used a Sallet plan from ArmourArchive.
>>49235
OP are you sending your kids to Turkey to retake the city of Constantinople and push back the kebab forces back into the sandy shit hole they came from?
I wish your kids the best of luck, may they squash many mudslimes.
>>52036
>usurper Henry VII
Go back to France you Norman fuck. Henry VII was Y Mab Darogan, the saviour of the Britons, a true Celt and Arthur reborn. Tudor is the true ruling dynasty of Britain and you are a Saxon and a traitor.
>>53313
Henry VII son killed the English church and led to the brittian people being taken over by Kebab.
Sometimes it's better to aknowledge your betters and let them save you from yourselves.

Nope, they still have Norman blood. Rollo I of Normandy is the primogenitor of all modern royalty in Europe. Like I said, Normans fucked. A lot.
>>53394
On the subject of churches. The Orthodox church considers the last Orthodox King of England to be King Harold Godwinson.
>>53394
Correction, you are a Saxon, a traitor, and a Catholic.
Henry VIII saved Britain from both the Roman tyrant and the German heretic. He saved the Church in England. Caesaropapism is best theology, you pagan heathen.
Bosworth Field, best day of my life.
>>53419
>Rollo I of Normandy is the primogenitor of all modern royalty in Europe
But that's false
Only English kings have his blood (alongside shitton of French, German and Scottish blood)
>>49235
Only thing I could think about.
>>53533
Yes, and the English Kings married off their daughters and their sons and bastard children spread across all of Europe from Spain, the Holy Roman Empire, and the Crusader States.
>>53586
Right but by that you could pick almost any noble related to Charlemagne and make the same claim.
>>53681
The point though is that England never had anything other than French rule by blood and culture, although I supposed with Windsor you could argue they were sufficiently German.
Either way though, Saxons got rekt.
>>53580
Oh im laffin
>>53739
Not really, no.
Culturally they were french, then english, then dutch then german, if you are talking ethnically, because the royal families of europe intermarried so much like you said, calling them "French" is meaningless.
I mean if you want to trace them all back to Rollo, shouldn't you be calling them Norse?
>>53521
Enjoy your shariah law.
