I think too that our group is interpreting how the Fourth Age might have been. There's lots to consider - not only the clothing but the politics as well. Stormraven and I were discussing the possible politics of supply the other day. Would the Rangers have gotten their leather packs from villagers i...

This looks like a good set up for us women too! Especially that you can pull the flap back that far.

Thank you Gondian. One thing I want to say as to "authenticity". I'm female and in Tolkien's works, females are always sort of the idyllic sorcerer - queens / goddess types ( unless we look to Shelob and some of the Sackville-Bagginses). As a woman Ranger, I may be an oddity in Tolkien's w...

I'm a former EMT in Los Angeles County so I've seen a lot and am more used to modern medic...
