Title: Victoria's Security
Post by: Laflin and Rand on April 18, 2010, 02:12:38 AM

Let's say her Royal Highness would go out to hunt pheasant or something. Who would be with her normally (whether or not she ever went hunting or such)? What sort of security detail would have been with her? I'm asking this for a friend.  ;)

2 Battalions of Guards and the Household Cavalry - all cunningly disguised as the locals, sheep and foliage local to the area.

I'd think it would depend largely on where she was at the time (if at Balmoral, she'd have a different escort than at Windsor).

Mrs Brown is worth a watch for a little bit of inspiration as there is a shooting scene that deals with security.

For a VSF game, I think Sterling Moose's idea is a good one actually!

I'd personally put it up to you.  :)

There'd be a team of pheasant pluckers, for tongue-twisting purposes.

"Oh, I'm not the pheasant plucker,
I'm the pheasant plucker's son,
And I'm only plucking pheasants
Til the pheasant plucker comes."

So, being disguised, would they actually be Victoria's Secret Security?
