Theme: 30th Anniversary Celebration

"During the Reign of Michael II and Rebekka II on the throne of Ansteorra, is was desirous that there be a treaty formed between the Kingdom of Ansteorra and the Kingdom of Meridies, then ruled by Stephen I and Jacqueline I. In a true period fashion, the Crowns of those kingdoms chose to seal the treaty with the marriage of a prominent peer from each realm.
At the Known World Heraldic Symposium, held in the Barony of Elfsea in June of AS 25, the Crown of Meridies presented Mistress Siobhan ni Bhreoghain to be given in marriage to Master Edwin FitzLloyd to seal the treaty. As her Dowry, the Crown of Meridies offered up the lands of Trimaris. In return, Ansteorra presented its interests in the Barony of Three Rivers as the bride price."

Thursday's Bridge Battle Plan

This is a bridge battle. As expected, we’ve been asked to take the center bridge. This is way too clever to fail twice. We need to get past the Glory Zone at the center, and then set up our Massive Impenetrable Shieldwall. I can see that we have all 38 scutums and 127 scutari. You’ve all practiced this, so let’s do it the way we did it at Winter War Maneuvers.

There’s archery in this, so Archers, grab your bows.

Artillery, pair up with a shield — we need to have at least one pole or greatsword with each shield. Know your buddy’s name. Guy on the left and right — be prepared to let the spears in or out on command.

After they’ve thinned themselves out by throwing wave after wave at our Massive Impenetrable Shieldwall, listen for the command and we’ll finish this off. Be sure to echo commands while you move — it’s hard to hear under the wall.

Okay, any questions? Good. Make sure your gear’s on the truck, get a drink, and let’s line up on the road. We move in five minutes.
