Yes, red and blue swords can have green tips. If it is padded properly, it will pass as a red/green weapon.

Edhellen does make really good gear, but as with any sport, if you make it yourself it can be tweaked to fit your needs and preferences and you will know better how to maintain it. If you'd like to make it yourself there are several of us that will be happy to help you make it.

Also, if you haven't made it to practice yet, come on out. We have plenty of loaner gear and we'll be happy to help you get started.

Of that I've no doubt. I came out once a while back and it was a good time. I'll try to come out this Wednesday if possible maybe with some friends and family as well. I hope half a dozen newbies isn't too much for the loaner gear. When would it be possible to work on making something. That might be preferable if it is reasonably feasible.

Hello and welcome!

I'm Tiberius, the current Realm Leader. You can call me Tibby for short.

I'm glad you're motivated to come out - and please bring your friends! We'll have plenty of weapons for them to use. I'm also glad that you've discovered our website. There's a good core of us who are on here regularly, and a few more lurkers. Please be as active as you'd like - we'll get all your questions answered and look forward to your participation. There are lots of useful links on our Realm website that you can find using the index on the right side of the screen.

Other Belegarth websites you'll want to check out:

• National Website: http://www.belegarth.com/index.html
• National Forum: http://board.belegarth.com/index.html
• Belegarth Rule Book (Book of War): belegarth.com/documents/bookofwar.pdf
• Belegarth Wiki: http://geddon.org/index.html

As far as making weapons goes, it depends on who is available in their free time to help you out and what you're wanting to do. The cost for materials to teach you to make your own one-handed sword is in the neighborhood of about $15.00. Shields, depending on whether or not you have your own core go from about $25.00 or so.

Come to practice, let's get to know you and your friends, see if this is a sport you guys want to invest some time in and we'll go from there. Looking forward to seeing you on the field each Wednesday from 7 pm - 10 pm.

Just to echo what's been said, you should feel completely welcome to poke around our forum, engage us in conversation. There are very few stupid questions, and we generally answer those with a smile anyways. :P
Come on out to practice, bring whoever you like, we've got loaner gear to suit plenty of people.
