Pennsic Pas d'Armes?

Post by Guenievre »

Hi!
I'm starting to put together my must-be-at schedule for Pennsic this year, and while I know about the Thirty and the WoH Tourney, of course, I was wondering whether there were any other nifty Pas or other things-not-to-miss for a 14th century Mafia type scheduled this year. Since the battlefield schedule isn't up yet, well, I know somebody here will know... :)

Thanks!!

Maitresse Marcele (Tailoress here on the AA) is part of a tourney company whose name totally escapes me at the moment, whom held a pas at last year's Pennsic. I helped with the breakdown but didn't participate. I truly wish I had, it was inspiring as all hell.
Leo, Murdock or Master Galleron would probably know the name of the group, as they all took part.

Yes, the St. Michael's Company - I was lucky enough to attend the 2009 Pas, but wasn't able to make it to the 2010 one. Thus I was sort of hoping there was another one this year... :)

And of course now that I posted this the schedule is up... figures...

IS there a pas d'Armes this Pennsic? That would be great. Providing matched great weapons (for those of us who cannot fly with them) would be even better.

Karl will you be at Pennsic this year? It'd be great to see you again. I still have the ring you gave me for helping with your armour at The Deed a couple of Gulf Wars back. Be great to renew acquaintances.

Yes, we plan to make Pennsic this year. We will be camping with the West and my Lady will be at the Dance Pavilion the rest of the time (which means that I'll be at the Dance Pavilion a lot too). It will be good to see you again.

I'm pretty sure The Company of St. Michael is not holding a Pas this year at Pennsic. Galleron may see this and post further details, but the last we all left it in email discussion was that we'd be willing to take a break for a year and recharge our batteries.

This same questions was asked in Medieval Combat. Here's a link to that for cross-reference:

This saddens me. I hold the COTT the this pas as my favorites happenings at Pennsic. :sad:

While this Pennsic would not be possible, would anyone be interested in coordinating one for next year?

Well we know that the Company of St Michael is gearing up for one next year.
With that said there's no reason why there couldn't be another one too. I believe they traditionally do theirs earlier in the week.
