Good Populace of Battle Rock, I'm polling ideas to help Lord Wilhelm with a marshal type event for celebration of the Stronghold Birthday. I'm thinking we do a crest tourney (which should be much fun!) Each fighter will construct a crest of foam and duct tape to be afixed to his/her helm. I'll construct a palisade to fight over (saw horse). Each fighter will place one hand on the palisade and attempt to knock the crest off of the other fighters helm. Only crest shots count, and anyone removing their hand from the palisade will be considered out. Anyone with suggestions or thoughts, please contact Lord Wilhelm with ideas. I wanted to try and do something different other than a double elimination style sword and board tourney. We can still do double elimination, with ample amounts of time for crest repair in between. What say you? ?? Adam sendss....

It's been decided.....
Rise of the Pheonix Crest Tourney is a go.
Palisade is constructed, just doing decorations now.
Lord Wilhelm taught a class about crest construction.
Site looks not to be a problem.
Now we just have to pray for fair winds, light clouds with no rain, and sunshine to rule the day!!
Should be a fun and enjoyable time. More info and pictures to the Yahoo group upon completion.
Lord Edome sendss....

Only a few more days until the wildest, strangest palisade tourney in the Far West!
Rise of the Pheonix Crest Tourney is nearly upon us.
Prizes to be given for the following:
Best Crest...........Best Crest Death......(that's what we're all waiting for!) ........ and best Heraldic Garb!
Everything seems to be in order....video camera is charged, new tape inserted (I know, but I roll old school.)
The only thing we need now is some good weather! Forecast looking good so far.
If you can't attend, I'll be happy to post pictures and maybe even some video. Can't wait!!!!!!!!!

Final Report of the Rise of the Phoenix Crest Tourney.....
Congrats to Lord Wilhelm for his outstanding crest!!!!
All of my pictures have been have been uploaded to the Battle Rock Yahoo group photo section.....to include the tourney results for the archives.
This was a great small event with wonderfully talented people! It was great to see everyone decked out in their garb.
Luckily the weather held out for us, even though it was a bit chilly, it was still a good event. Look for some photos on Facebook.
Another great event for Battle Rock in the books!
Anyone who would like specific pics, please email me for details.
Lord Adam sendss....
