I should also congratulate Steinarr Aggarson for winning the over forty tournament on Sunday.

I sure hope so. I was a little to busy to take any.

I would like to congratulate Duke Ibrahim Al Dimashqi of Artemesia for besting a field of 136 (best estimate right now) fighters this last Saturday. The final was Duke Ibrahim Al Dimashqi over Duke Skeggi Nyewcombe in 2 best 2 out of 3. It was a very hard fought and deep tournament.

Let my elbow heal so I can fight again without needing to ice it.

I was just curious. Because one of Duke Skapti's former Squires (Sir Einar) told me that last time he won Crown he said that he was a little disappointed because he couldn't fight at Ursulmas.

I also understand that when you take on the responsibility your time isn't always your own.

As to what not to miss. That would depend on how long you'll be up here and what interests you have.

Your Highness
I've heard this said before and thought it odd. Why is it a King can't fight in what technically is just a Baronial prize tournament?

Steinolf

I know it's a shameless plug but last year a few said they would like to make it some time.

Yes they do.

I think that the caption may be wrong. I don't see that it can be the knights swearing fealty, as Duke Havordh is patently not from An Tir. Could it have been the HRM Ieuan was actually getting knighted himself? That would make more sense. I have seen other knighting ceremonies where the knights ho...

I will jump on this band wagon. I had a minor glitch and Frank took care of it right away. Wore my new shoes this weekend and hopefully sent him some new costumers.

Contact Urweg Asgel does custom work. I have a few of his pieces.

You would be most welcome. Last year we had 155 enter on Saturday.

I believe Ursulmas tourney has about 1500 every January.

You could paint it to look like brass and stand it up in the middle of your tent. Just a thought.

We use 2'x4' 1/2" center grips.

It really depends on what you want to do. Keep in mind the larger the shield you have the more likely it is that someone will yell at you to get to the front and join the shield wall where you will get to enjoy being stabbed to death by billion spears or getting run over by very large people.

My field started with 23 but 2 dropped out. I know of 2 others that started with 23. It was a long first round to marshal.

Steinolf

It's o.k. If I need to think about a shot I take it and figure I need to work on my defence.

I like it. I have often wished mine was a slat back.
I have the one you have pictured on your site and it has served me well for years.

I could use a couple more heavy fighters at this demo. I know a few of you live in the northwest. Right now I'm one of two heavies maybe three. If you want in on this please contact Lady Fi her info is at the bottom of all of this. Greetings Unto the Populace - A mundane event is forming in the hear...
