This event is specifically scheduled to meet the Pennsic deadline for new authorizations. Fighters will have a opportunity to authorize in \"all the things\" and fights in melees with the Celtic cousins of the bog.

That\'s right, you\'ll able to authorize in any weapons forms aside, from equestrian.

No more excuses! We\'re committed to offer the opportunity for anyone authorize. We will have at least 1 ballista and one crossbow on-site for people to authorize on. We will have secondary weapons to authorize on. Youth combat is available too!

After, authorizations are done, we will have MELEE fighting!

Scenarios:

Fight of the Valkyries! Alll female, all heavy fighter melees to showcase the prowess of women fighters in Atlantia and in the known world!

Other scenarios, TBD.
