Due to the weather I am cancelling fencing practice today Sunday 10/29.

See you next week.

I was hoping there would be a break in the rain, but it looks like we will continue to have steady rain through our practice time. Therefore, I am calling it for today. See everyone next week.

Hello Debatable Lands and Neighbors! Salve Accolens!

We (Baron Brandubh and Baroness Hilda) are so excited for Agincourt tomorrow, Oct 28th! So many amazing activities – archery (of course), fencing (with a Garnet and Steel Invite coin!), heavy fighting (tavern BRAWWWLL and more), a *very* cool A&S display, dancing, mask-making, the Kingdom Thrown Weapons Championship, food food food, and more!

Event announcement here. And Facebook event (for those that partake) here.

But it’s a bittersweet sort of excited for us, because it’s our very last full event as your Baron and Baroness. If you’re on the fence about attending, we’d humbly like to request that you do come – we’d like our last full event in our Office to be something to remember, with as many of our beloved people around us and enjoying the Barony’s festivities as possible! There may be tears (the Baroness is a softie), but there will be guaranteed fun, camaraderie and lots of laughs!

And in honor of both the Agincourt theme of the event, and the penultimate event of our tenure, we have something special in mind for our last full Court – we’re having it ALL DAY LONG! Yup, we will be having a roaming Campaign Court, doing pieces of business all day on the various Fields (and Rooms) of Honor, just like (we assume) Henry V of England and the French army did!!

Be prepared to declare your affinity – English or French! Tallies are afoot! If you see us “on Campaign”, come join our retinue, bring your voices and instruments to hum the Agincourt Carol or the Baronial Fight Song! Let’s have a blast!

See you there!

In Levitate et Caritate, and Cheers,
Baroness Hilda and Baron Brandubh

P.S.: Does anyone have like, a LOT of kazoos we can borrow??

From the Baronial Fencing Marshal –

Fencing – Lucky Coin 13 for the Tournament of Garnet and Steel
There will be a tournament to decide the recipient of coin 13 for the Tournament of Garnet and Steel!

The tournament will be an English vs French tournament focusing on the works of George SIlver and Captain Peloquin. Fighters are encouraged to look up both manuals available for free on Wikitenauer –

George Silver – https://wiktenauer.com/wiki/George_Silver
Captain Peloquin – https://wiktenauer.com/wiki/Captain_Peloquin

Be prepared to explain their interpretation and which portions of the manuals they are going to present during the tournament.

The tournament format will be based on the numbers for the day.

After the fencing tournament, there will be a Cut and Thrust tournament later in the day.
