Thanks for the welcome.

Tomkow, I would not like a Burka. I don't really understand the reference. Temujin, the Chingis Khan, was a Tengrist (the traditional Shamanist religion of the step, that was influenced by Manicheanism and Zoroastrianism after the 4th century.)
However, a good composite bow, short shield, and saber would be nice. I have some steppe Turkic ancestry, the Khazars. The Khazars stopped the Muslim invasion of the Caucuses and Urals in a series of battles from 730-737.

I don't know if you're aware of this, but the Khazars, who were being pressed by the Moslems on one side and the Orthodox from Kiev on the other, converted to Judaism. They controlled the southern step until the coming of the Pechenegs.
