Pug put on the Kingdom list that the Heirs are Mahdi and Valeria. Her also mentioned that Mahdi won in the finals over our own Jean-Paul.

Vivat Ansteorra!!

Congratulations Ansteorra!!!!!

I had the privelage of meeting HRH Mahdi when I lived in Steppes briefly. He is truly a great person.

I've traveled WAY too little in my home kingdom. IfHRH Mahdi is the one I'm thinking of, he gave a quite informative discussion on chivalric fighting at an event I attended last year.

I had the pleasure of briefly meeting Mahadi at Mooneschadowe Guardian a few weeks ago (where he won as well, I might add). He is a fine member of the Chivalry.

Well done on the part of Sieur Jean Paul as well!

Vivat Ansteorra!

I fought him for the first time (one on one, anyway) last year at Moonshadowe, we had fun. :-)

Good going, JP!

We're running out of Counts in Ansteorra. This is 5 Counts in a row as our last kings, so -5 Counts, +5 Dukes. LOL

*The Dungeons and Dragons jokes are obvious and unnecessary. Everyone already laughed when they thougth of it. You don't have to post it.

Greetings!

I was lucky enough to attend Ansteorran Crown Tournament yesterday. I
would like to thank all the combatants for putting on
such a great tournament. Great honor and chivalry was
shown on the field inspiring a new fighter like myself
to greater heights. I would like to also thank the
northern region for holding the event and being such
gracious hosts.

I was able to take quite a few pictures and would like
to share those with the populace.

Here is a link to the pictures I took:

I tried to get pictures of all the combatants in the
procession. Then had most of the first round matches.
The final rounds I was very close to the field and got
a lot of great pictures.

I was also able to take some video with the small
amount of battery I had left. At the point where the
video starts Sir Mahdi was already up 1 point to
none on Sir Jean-Paul.

This video is 55 mega bytes and will take quite a
while to download so be forewarned.

Thanks to everyone. It was an awesome tourney, and I had a wonderful time. I can't wait for the next one

All of the fighters fought really well, and in particular, I was proud of the improvement in the northern fighters I saw. We did very well, as 3 out of the last 5 in the tournament were from the north.

We'll continue working, and hopefully we'll finish the deal next time

Cool. Congratulations to Mahdi and consort. Congratulations to Ansteorra, and congratulations to me for not having to worry about who to put up against Mahdi in the champions' battle at Gulf Wars
