PLEASE NOTE!!!
There will be no Sideboard. However there will be an evening potluck meal, after court, at the Borderwatch training hall. Potluck items should be taken there.
THE BASHING
There will be a double elimination or round-robin tourney to start in the morning. Following that will be our “traditional” Heavy Combat Random Weapons Bearpit at the Borderwatch Training Hall. You and your opponent will have to roll a D20 to determine with what weapon you will use in the list. You have to roll the dice with every fight! It might be a spear, a dagger, a sword, a chicken… We will also provide the rubber chicken if you happen to roll the unlucky “13”. You need to hit them in the face with the chicken if you want to win that fight. We will have a supply of pre-inspected weapons you can borrow if you roll a weapon you didn’t bring yourself.
RANDOM RAPIER – We do not have official staff to run the tournament this year. However, we will make a space for our steel-bladed friends to spar.
