This is a multidisciplinary Camp involving Armored Combat (including Combat Archery), Rapier, Target Archery, Thrown Weapons, and Arts & Sciences. There will also be training and authorization on siege engines. The martial goal is to enable wide participation in Siege and train in both individual and team tactics across all martial disciplines.
The theme for this year is the Punic Wars! This series of conflicts between the Roman Republic and the Carthaginian Empire set the stage for the rise of Rome and featured many iconic early period feats of military ingenuity.
