Rapier Scenarios Quad War 2008

NOTE: This is just a teaser, the fine details will be posted at a later time. Scenarios, and tourney are subject to change due to availability of resources and timing.

It is a time of tribulations in Alfheimland. The young Tanist is flexing his muscles, challenging the Prince's rule, and the Prince's Power. A hot weekend in the middle of August, tempers are flaring, and it looks like there is going to be blood in the streets...

The Weekend Activities:

I). Weekend Long Rapier Tourney: The most Infamous Duelist

Public Decree: By Royal Decree Dueling has been BANNED in Alfheimland. All those caught Dueling will face stiff fines, or if funds are lacking, then service under the supervision of the Stewards of town.

Join a side as a duelist, flaunting the law to become the deadliest duelist of this fair town, or keep the peace by becoming a town guard and put a halt to the blood bath that this illegal dueling is causing.

As the reports come in, the constabulary will start hunting those most prolific. Keep an eye out for the wanted posters appearing around the site.

The most prolific duelist, or the most successful guard will be rewarded at the end of the weekend.

II). The War Scenarios

The background: There are two factions in Alfheimland, the Prince's and the Tanist's. Each fighter shall declare a side upon arrival. The scenarios over the weekend will play out the strife that has plagued this quiet town. The vast majority of the scenarios will be run in and around Cavalier Town. Cavalier Town is a town square that will be constructed of straw bales. This shall represent the town square of Alfheimland. There will be three buildings, a 'fountain', and a open area.

We will begin the war with some warm up scenarios. This will warm up the fighter, and give them a idea of who he is fighting with.

The Scenarios:

1) Do you bite your thumb at me? (3 on 3 melee) You a a few friends are sitting by the fountain enjoying the beautiful day, when you hear a shout from the crowd. You look at the crowd and see that there is three people from the opposing faction, and they have just said something unkind. Such insult much be answered with steel.

2). Calling out the cavaliers! (Full melee, side against side) You may have taught those ruffians to hold their tongues, or been taught to hold your own, but it doesn't lessen the slight against your faction. Time to round up all those who have wield a sword and take them down. It will start with both sides on opposite ends of Cavalier town. After lay on is called, then the entire site town is your battle field. The winner is the side that is left standing.

3). Caught! (rescue the hostage.) You and your friends managed to escape the melee in the town square, but as you count your numbers you realize that you have left someone behind. You must retrieve your compatriot before evil nasty things are done to him.

4). Aww Fawkes it all! (Powder Keg battle, timed resurection.) Last night at the tavern you overheard a messenger from the King. He is transporting powder kegs to the front, and the convoy is heading through town. This is a perfect oppurtunity to encourage the other faction to leave town. If we can get enough of those powder kegs, then we can plant them in their house. Then a little spark and you will get the bang for your buck. Oh look there is the wagon, and the drivers have stopped for lunch at the tavern.... now is our chance!

5). As I walk through the valley... (VIP escort). It has become apparent that this town is no longer safe for lords nor ladies. Theft, dueling, debauchery... oh the debauchery! It is time to leave this town in the dust for good, and head back to our city estates. The messengers tell stories of the roads. They full of ruffians, highwaymen, and generally icky people. We will leave, but we need to be viligant, for there is no telling what we might find on the roads back home.

III). Other Tournies occuring during the weekend.

1). Dante's Challenge.

Dante wil once again be hosting Dante's Challenge.

2). Hennenburg Tourney by tourchlight: Fought with rubber chickens, on saturday night at cavalier town.

Details on the tournies and the scenarios will be updated as they are finished.
