Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!

Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.

"Well, do I have news for you!"

"Okay, but what if the situation escalates?"

"Then you should have planned better."

If your punch doesn't work, stab them, and if that doesn't work just shoot them.
