Further use of the \"furca\" as a tent pole.
#21
Maybe leather tents were used for more permanent forts? And linen for quick marchs?

Aniway, I remember to see fellow reenactors put plastic protections on their leather tents because it was raining. Leather in heavy rain is not a good idea. The leather was soaked.

Absolutely no problem with our linen tents. No water would pass through it.

So maybe leather tents were not that good on the northern provinces.
