Is that where they make Newcastle Brown Ale? That stuff is the best!

T'is indeed Rawson, you've got good taste t'is brewed there and t'is indeed awesome. We're experiencing a bit of an ale rennaisance here in the UK, there are lots of little breweries producing bottled gems and putting the big brewers to shame but Newcastle Brown Ale (or Newkie Broon Ale as it's better known over here) manages to cover both bases. I know of one decent boozer in Copenhagen that stock decent guest ales including, if my memory serves me well, Newkie Broon.
Anyway, these Vostryoans, what's their favourite tipple? Petyr looks like he enjoys a Broon or two before potting enemies of the Emperor, would that be the case?

Well, it all depends on the child of course, but I would say at least age 8. I was using a knife and limited power tools at that age.

@dstein i let my neice and nephew shoot me with airsoftguns, but i wouldnt let them touch one of those!

Yeah, and he's been punching rivets in with his bare hands since he started eating solid food!

rofl...exactly...well mostly since he began punching his brother...after he was full of rivets he begun riveting vehicles^^

its not suicide if one my 5 yr old nephew got shot in the head first, not by me though but by one of my buddies while we where airsofting

lol...was he crying then? although the rounds are pretty small i bet they can sting...

they can, ive gotten shot in the face from point blank from my sister and it bled, but no he was fine, luckily he 1-enjoys being like me "look mommy im like uncle shane!"
and 2- The guy who shot him was far and his gun was probibly the least powerfull gun out of the lot. Speaking of which when the two of the little ones come visit i will try to teach them warhammer!

btw laughing at a shot 5 year old, not cool vik not cool....

thats where mere tying is failing... the lol and the cring were ment to be apart... a pause in between... by the way... may i guess your age? i bet you are more now between 18 and 25... much closer, eh?^^

yeah teach them... how to become addicted to plastic toys... it is like crack... once you pop......

just in case you couldnt tell i thought it was funny too, and your age range is much closer now vikory

yeah i ad that suspicous feeling... airsoft is not really something for older guys... but to tell a truth... our family was on a vacation some years ago in hameln... (the pipers town... with all them rats...) and there in a small shop i saw a pumpgun for airsoft games... chrome and witha black reloader...god did i want that then... but my wife kept me together^^

nothing is funner (that is a word) that going to an abandoned factory/office complex and shooting your freinds and family, im one of those that gets fully camoed up and goes commando on everyones butt, i even have a non leathal airsoft knife so that i may "kinfe" people

an airsoft knife??? when i was that age i used to call that rubber or plasticknife^^

airsoft knife! cost me 10$ from airsoftgi.com, well worth it to me!

ten bucks for this ...er...i am lacking a better word.... >_<

i bet you could get one for two...ohoh....

heck no not that, i'll find it 1 sec

heres the one

doubles as a bayonette for m4-m16

ok... granted if you want to use it also on a gun i see your point...

but my pal got one too so when my gun broke i used 2 knifes in a dark building which is always fun, but its great when its paired with this CO2 1911 my other freind has, although aeg's are better than pistols, pistols are by far more fun to use

I used to take the wooden stir sticks for gallons of paint and use my Dad's bench grinder to carve them into knives and bayonettes for my wooden guns as a kid. My dad was pissed when I ruined his grinding wheel.

ha, when i was younger my freind used a wooden, square knife for airsoft, although when we wernt playing he would go behind you and full blown choke you out with a peice of wood, i wonder if he relised why we where useing plastic ones...

I'd agree with that. My uncle gave me a model car at age 7 and I still almost cut my finger off with the razor blade...

i'd give them scissors or clippers, but not something so small that they wont work it well and big chance of blood, basicly if i cut myself with it, i aint given it too easy

i bet the first thing i would train them is basic painting... if you are able to paint details i think you are capable of wielding a knife too...so depends on their learning curve...clippers i think are actually quite tricky.... they sneak upon ye and when you are careless you even can snipp off some precious material easier than an exactoknnife would... and i am not talking about plastic here^^

i knew you wernt! but i keep my clippers above the table

*sniggers*

you just made me think of something but NO i wont say, im going to work on mordheim atm as to prevent this conversation
