Hello all!

Hi Spjut.

I hadn't read about the Great Northern War before.
Charles XII of Sweden sounds like an interesting character.
King at 14, and then after many campaigns, killed at the age of 36 by a shot to the temple while inspecting trench lines at the Siege of Fredriksten.
From what I read, it was possibly grapeshot from the fort that got him. All 40,000 of his men immediately packed up and left. King dead - game over?

When you say reenactment, do you mean costumes and swords and black powder muskets and cannons? It would be interesting to see a photo.
Check it out. I posted a few now.DSC05791.JPG
