****
A tournament of arms will be
held for fighters who would like to show their interest in the arts
and sciences as well as their prowess on the field. Each fighter
who would like to enter the lists must submit a handmade item
primarily made by the entrant, the A&S submissions will become
the prizes for the tournament. Since each fighter will bring a
prize all participants will leave with
something.
The overall winner of the
tournament will have first pick of the prizes and the second pick
will go to the fighter whose item was chosen first continuing until
all the prizes are gone.
The prize table will be
displayed for all at the event to see what the fighters of An Tir
have been working on. Please note any reasonable attempt at a
handmade item will be accepted as we would like as many people to
participate as possible. Documentation is not necessary, in fact
your item does not need to be strictly medieval for example a raw
hide wrapped rattan sword would be a fantastic entry. However store
bought items or submissions that the fighter did not have any part
of making will not be accepted.

Note that the above Weather and Map information is generated from the site address and can be easily confused. The weather will say if its for the branch or for the site. It will be for the site if the site can be found, but this again is not always the case, and if the site is some distance from the branch then the weather may be different.
