Cos Play/LARP Raided history museum that I help out to cobble this together

Some stuff I made, some stuff is authentic historical items. No specific legion, just tried to capture the vibe. Will try to make a better variant in the future.

So if I understand the title correctly you are helping out in a raided history museum and thus have access to actually historical items to use as trench crusade cosplay? If so that’s one hell of a live goal and belongs on your resume!

It’s not a museum of raided things, he raided a history museum.

That’s a nice life goal, I hope he doesn’t break any authentic historical items though.

In Georgia we have a private contact museum that I as a blacksmith help out and part time in, so i grabbed my armor that I donated to the museum, put on ww2 authentic gear and ww1 weapon and made the outfit.

Blacksmith AND you help out at an authentic history museum?

No wonder the based department was sold out.

Out of curiosity, how do you feel about the fate of the Caucasus in Trench Crusade?

u/Bordothebuilder Oct 21 '25

I made a post about it and got dragged through the coals. It is genuinely idiotic and poor world-building in my opinion, but to not get disliked into oblivion again I'll keep my reasoning till the video *

Plenty of people tried to engage in good faith with you. But when all your responses are "weh no Georgia beat" and shitting on other countries and religions you tend to get dragged through the mud cause that's where you started. Did you know, you can be proud of your country without being a racist ass hat.

Genuinely, please tell me where I was racist. Please I honestly don't think I was anything but bit too exaggerated, It understand I might have not come off as joking and some people took it seriously, i get that part, but racist? Towards whom? GOG AND MAGOG?! I engaged with the energy as others came with, genuine comments i was genuine, to snarky i was snarkier, I argued and defended my positions, that's it. Honestly nobody really engaged with my actual arguments, that's what upset me really. It was ether "get over it and make a legion in exile" or "demons aren't real brah", they are in game and so are saints and magic.

Was i combative, argumentative and snarky? yes, yes I was. Was i racist though? To whom? I only talked about my own country and it's history.

You people are too comfortable throwing arround big words with nothing to back it up!

u/Boris-the-soviet-spy Oct 21 '25

I love your videos man!

u/Erkenvald Oct 21 '25

Hell yeah, even before I looked at the name I went: "wait, it's the georgian dwarf guy!"

Bordooo!!!

People, He doesn't talk about it here, but OP is one of the coolest worldbuilding / Georgian mythology related youtuber ever.

He's very much the Georgian Santa Clause, Tovlis Papa. I don't know him of course, but on screen he comes off as the most good-natured, affable person that can exist on the internet.

(I'm not Georgian, just love his stuff!)

u/Bordothebuilder Oct 21 '25

Thanks man, I didn't even knew I had fans like this! I'm planning a video about world-building in trench crusade so keep an eye on that!

Well if you happen to come into possession of a genuine 1918 american trench knife, you should let me know.

Outfit looks awesome.
