Two-man Spear bear pit Tourney

Post by Gilebert »

Greetings,

This tournament is back on the schedule for Pennsic.

Tuesday Aug, 5 at 2pm until 6pm. (Yes... after the woods battle)

As I understand it, it is based on the one that happens at Gulf Wars.

The tournament was originally canceled due to the perception that there would not be enough interest.

Sir Alonzio contacted me about this and stated he had 20 interested people for it. So it is back on the schedule.

As soon as I get more info about the format, I will post it here.

I would appreciate it if this could make the rounds to as many lists as possible...

With a good turn-out, this could become a yearly thing... and perhaps land a better day and time in the future.

Adric, you and Sir Cona making it? That would just be unfair...
Westerners, we have forgotten our origins. We speak all the diverse languages of the country in turn. Indeed the man who was poor at home attains opulence here; he who had no more than a few deiners, finds himself master of a fourtune.

think of fighting on a very, very narrow tennis court, only you're dead if you step outside any of your lines. That's what this is like.
