> greetings this 28th day of September AS XLVI. Know that We intend to to

> be declared heir presumtive to the throne of Atlantia. Each combatant shall
> fight for the honor of a consort. The victor's consort shall likewise be
> named Our successor. We have heretofore invited several worthy gentles that
> We would hold up as examples of prowess, courtesy and nobility to enter the
> list. Now We would extend that invitation and summon all Our Dukes, Counts,
> Viscounts, Earls, Knights, Barons, Baronesses, and other gentles of coat
> armor to defend the strength of Our Kingdom by contending in Our Crown
> Tournament.
> 
> As We would not see one drop of Atlantian blood needelessly or impiously
> spilled, Our tournament shall be contested with weapons of peace. While
> thrusts to the armored body and limbs shall be permitted, We are of the
> opinion that thrusting to the face is properly reserved for war, and as
> such, is specifically disallowed. The finals of the tournament shall be
> fought best of five bouts. The senior shall choose first, and no weapon form
> may be employed more than once until and unless a fifth match is required to
> decide the outcome.
> 
> Letters of Intent to participate in Crown Tournament should be submitted to
> Us and the Kingdom Seneschal by October 15th. Letters must include the
> following:
> 
> SCA and Modern names of the cobatant and consort
> 
> SCA membership numbers for each
> 
> Mailing address, email address and phone numbers for each
> We reserve the right to accept letters past the deadine up to and including
> the day of the tournament. While letters may be sent electronically, Her
> Majesty will be awarding a prize for the best hand-written/decorated letter
> of intent.
