(...) Recently, I saw "Throne of Blood" (1957), a great film by Akira Kurosawa. Subtitled, of course. Its a remake of "Macbeth". It is also called "Cobweb Castle" and "Spider Web Castle", or by its Japanese title, "Kumonosu jo". This movie is in (...) (24 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.castle)

Hey all, I received a baggie of chrome parts from an Ebay auction today and outfitted my knights with them. It's great to see the breastplate available in such a small set, and the chrome Dragon Master helm is great! I hope this is a trend that (...) (24 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.castle)

I got in on this string a bit late so if I repeat what someone else said I apologize. I was an Asian History major in college and I must say that one of the best movies depicting medevil era Japan is the Movie "Shogun" by James Clavell (spelling?). (...) (24 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.castle)

I loved the book Shogun. I've read it a few times, it is very enjoyable. A glimpse into a very different culture and time period from my own. I also remember that there is a short comparison to life in medieval Europe, through Blackthorne's thoughts (...) (24 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Muskets, from the European standpoint, exit the Castle line, though I do make "hand gonnes" with a "bathroom plunger" and 1x1 round, appropriate to the 1400s. But from the Japanese standpoint, the late 1500s and 1600s are still considered (...) (24 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.castle)
