This year at Roses we will be honored with the presence of Their (soon to be) Majesties. Additionally we are officially holding EK Thrown Weapons Champs at Roses. There's multiple Baronial Champion spots up for claiming! A&S, Rapier, Rattan and potentially Archery! We'll have an amazing array of A&S classes and challenges! OH and there's also a Wok anniversary party!
Please refer to the event website (https://warsofroses.eastkingdom.org/ ) for the most up to date information on all things battlefield and A&S and everything else.
EK TW Tournament format:
Qualifier for each participant will consist of 3 throws each of Axe, Knife and Spear from “close range” (10 ft for axe/knife and 15 ft for spear), normal Royal Round rules for scoring/calibration throws will be in effect. Time permitting, participants will be allowed to attempt to qualify twice (priority will be given to those who have not yet qualified). Top 16 throwers will qualify for the tournament.
The tournament will consist of 4 rounds, at the end of each round half of the participants will be eliminated, the top scorers of each round will move on (these will not be head-to-head challenges). Throwers will need to use all 3 weapons forms, and each challenge will be done at “close range”.
