The Highland River Melees Event Schedule wrote:Authorizations to begin at 10 AM
Fighting to begin at 12 noon
Scenarios to be:
Sea battle; Ships locked in combat with each side having several portable boarding ramps. Timed resurrection battle.
Warlord melee; Each side fights in a timed resurrection battle. The side that has the least fallen warlords wins.
Field battles; many field battles with no resurrection.
Triad bear pit tourney; Teams of three with only one knight per team. These teams will fight in a bear pit format with wounds retained. If a triad wins three bouts in a row the team wins an extra point and goes back in line. Timed event with multiple lists if enough people participate.

In theory, I'll be there. Rumor has it I'll put on armour and swing a stick for the first time in almost a year...

Congrats to Batu, Tarkhan and Varg for sucessfully authorizing today. This new generation of Tuchux is hungry, motivated, trained and deadly.
I felt like poop today so I sat in the shade while my sons did the killing. But I got to play with Caleb so it didnt entirely suck ass I'm glad I got to talk to the people and shake the hands I did today. Made me feel honored to see so many people reach out. Thanks y'all!
You'd be hard-pressed to see me in any of the pictures... I fought the first couple of battles and the last couple of battles, and that's it.
However, I am still undefeated in the struggle to never eject the contents of my stomach while at an event. Some days the struggle is harder than others.
I was very disappointed with my performance that day. It seemed like the heat/humidity beat me down before I even reached the field. Well, the fighting was fun for the 3 or 4 melees I did fight in.
