[Namron] BLACK POWDER

[JOHN]

For about the past year and a half I have been researching the history and
evolution of Black Powder/Gunpowder in Medieval and Renaissance Europe.
This is a fascinating subject, yet one which seems to be overlooked by many
SCA folks, perhaps because these amazing weapons are not replicated in
combat reenactment.  

 

Now, is there enough interest amongst our Populace for an overview class in
Gunpowder History and Technology, perhaps followed up with other classes on
Period Firearms and Cannons?  If so I can prepare and present a class
sometime following the Medieval Fair.  Please throw some feedback and let me
know if you are interested.

 

I think this will be a fun topic to share knowledge about.
