Hi EB Folks!

A few days ago here in Germany we had the anniversary of the Varus vs. Arminus Battle in the Teutoburger Wald near Kalkriese/Osnabrück. I could not resist an we made it there. Wow what a trip ;-)))

We made about 60 fantastic real battle fighting Pictures romans vs. ancient germans.
I uploaded them via sendspace (2 Zip-File a 300MB):

Nice pictures, though the Romans' equipment were from different eras. :P

Thanks for your feedback.

THE STORY ABOUT THE PINK BUNNY:

During the first waves of fighting, a men in a pink coulor full stock bunny custume steel into the battelfield and attacked the germans in their armbushing places - with a gigant watercannon;-) He run around and shoot a couple of times. The german rows were confused about this new roman tactic. Some of the ancient warriors attacked the funny bunny and he was forced to retire. After app. 3 minutes the securty hunters were able to finish this black humor sarcasm thing and finished him off. Still in these days Cerusci (Osnabrücker;-) says: give us a field, give us some romans and we will fight!

Und die Moral von der Geschicht:
Liebe Bunnys gibt es nicht;-)

But i must say he is a bit overdosed, he took this action as an anti-national-act. Left winger - hope that hurts;-)

Wasn scheiß?
The bunny prank is actually very funny but I dont like the extreme left political aspect.
There where clearly some poeple at work with no understanding of germanic reenactment and no respect for the struggle of many germanic reenactors to prove that there are no nazis, fascists or whatever backwarded opinions are imputed to them.

Or maybe it was the most awesome demonstration of self-mochery...

Edit:
Oops didnt see that line

I'd like to see him try that around the Wehrmact reenactors. -_-'

Funny but not appropriate.
