Quis sursum procul Spirites Miletes?

What's up at Soul of the Warrior?

BIG NEWS:

- Added a bunch of Viking and GDFB products to the site.

-SOTW is adding a number of new time periods! Civwar, Viking, Napoleonic.... and soon... Blackpowder Rifles too!! Bear with us as we grow and add more product lines for your Warrior's Soul!

- New ROMAN stuff coming online finally! Soon we'll have two baldric designs (hopefully stainable to match your sword), some nice fibulae (crossbow style), Stirigil, to go with our new Swords, Pateras, and Canteens... Stay tuned... it only gets better!

-SOTW now has access to all CAS Iberia, Hanwei, Denix, and GDFB products! It will be a while before they show up on the site, but we can at least meet everyone else's prices on this stuff, and in most cases can tell youif it is in stock and when it will ship! Thereis not a lot of Roman Stuff there, but there is a lot of cool Celtic, Germanic, and medieval stuff, so if you re-enact another time period, ask us before you buy elsewhere.

LATEST SITE UPDATES:

- We can now accept direct bank drafts as well as Western Union easier, good news for our European orders.

- We have finally added a search engine to the website! It actually works very well. We are already seeing a good bit of use by folks! Thanks for visiting!!!

Effective 6-18-08 we have a SKYPE account, perfect for our overseas users to speak with us FREE or to share ideas and tech. www.skype.com to sign up. Skype is free internet messaging, streaming video, and voice. You can even see some video of the shop. Our Skype ID is SOULOFTHEWARRIORSHOP or SOULOFTHEWARRIOR

- Panther Primitives Price Increase: Effective 2/01/08 all panther primitives tents and gear went up in price, this is now reflected on the website. In some cases it went up a good bit, so be sure to check pricing on tents and such if you were in the market. Our Apologies, but we had to go up too.

- International Shipment Notes: Effective 11/23/2007 we will only accept overseas international orders on a case by case basis. This is directly due to the value of a US Dollar and the fact that we cannot afford to lose money on international shipments. Please inquire by email before ordering on any international order (excluding Canada, who will recieve items as usual).

- Reduced Shipping! We have reduced the shipping percentage, so you save more!

- We can now accept all major credit cards by phone, fax or snail mail!

- RAT discount applies to all orders, including the new fax/phone/mail order form!!

- BRUTALLY AUTHENTIC Custom made Hand sewn tunics, leather shield covers, hand WOVEN wool blankets, and more! We are in the prototype stages now, and expect to be posting items very soon! A great increase in our Roman line!! All designed to be hyper accurate.

- More Inventory! We have increased our amount of on hand Roman Gear to allow for faster shipping! Our goal is to stock all Deepeeka "N" items as they are available! Will take a while to do it, but it is happening!!

- Roman Helmet Upgrade Trade-Ins: By popular demand we are offerring a trade in credit on older Deepeeka Gallic G's and H's, I's, and Italic D's. Basically you trade your old helm for a credit toward the new one. We cannot trade them directly out, but we can help you on pricing substantially. Trade in helms must be in reasonable condition. Email rusty direct for more information rustyatrpg@aol.com. Other Deepeeka helms may be considered as well, discount varies but may run as high as 50% depending on helm and condition. You will recieve a brand new "N" model of your preference. This does not apply to trooper helms. If you send us a trooper helm, we will add $50 to the price of your helm!! JK

A Note of Thanks:

SOTW would very much like to thank the folks who have helped Deepeeka develop better and better products. Dan Peterson began this task long before many of us knew roman Re-enacting began, indeed, he is largely responsible for the affordable gear we have today. Of Late, Adrian Wink (Peroni on RAT) has taken the reigns and guided the Artisans at Deepeeka to a new level of off-the-shelf excellence. SOTW has benefitted, as have all Roman Era Re-enactors and suppliers. Ade is a fine fellow and is now operating his own Re-Enactor Supply store, http://www.armamentaria.com/store/ for our UK brethren (or anyone who wants Nodge Nolan belt parts!!). SOTW understands the perseverance and time it takes to develop a new product, and it is Ellen and My wish to sincerely thank those who have helped build the product line. We would be remiss not to mention the Deepeeka company themselves! For years we tossed ideas and they did not seem to listen, or took forever to implement the changes. They have now become perhaps the most responsive re-enactor supply company in the world. Great Job Gents. Ade, we owe you dinner and a pint!! Thanks.

Rusty and Ellen Myers, Soul of the Warrior
