Subject: [Atlantia-Announce] Pennsic Information 
 
For any who have not been to Our recent courts, here is some information about 
what's going on with Pennsic this year. 
 
The East and the Middle are allies this year against AEthelmearc and Atlantia 
and whatever allies we can muster.? All four Princes are working towards having 
some parity between the size of the armies.? This is far from a done deal as 
lines of communication are only now being opened with the other Kingdoms and 
with the various mercenary groups.? East and Middle both want to ensure that all 
scenarios are handled in a workable fashion. 
 
At this time, none of the battle scenarios are set.? Prince Bryan and Prince 
Andreas are working on contacting some of the historically largest of the 
remaining Allies in an effort to secure their aid.? Everyone is hoping to get 
some of the largest alliances made before trying to settle all of the details 
because the relative numbers will have a lot to do with what kind of scenarios 
are plausible.? All four Princes are speaking regularly with each other about 
how to set up each of the battles, tourneys, and other war activities to ensure 
that as much fun as possible is had by all.? As can be imagined, it takes some 
time for everyone to get together and more to get on the same page about any of 
the details when all of the other Crowns need to be consulted before a decision 
can be made. 
 
All aspects of the War are being considered and discussed.? Heavy battles and 
tourneys, rapier, combat archery, siege, archery, thrown weapons, A&S, 
procession, you name it.? There will be a day of field battles, one of broken 
terrain battles, one with castle battles, and one with woods.? Exactly what 
scenarios, how many of them, time limits, and days are still up in the air. 
 
We welcome feedback from anyone as to what will make this a great War from their 
perspective. 
 
Bryan 
Prince
