FightingThe Atlantia Spring Crown Tournament will consist of four (4) preliminary lists followed by a double elimination tournament limited to sixteen (16) combatants. The four preliminary lists will be balanced to be an equal number of fighters and fought in a round robin format (each fighter in the list will fight every other fighter in the list). NOTE: The preliminary round should be fought quickly, and combatants should be armored and prepared to fight; multiple fights will be conducted at the same time as field space allows. Fighters will be called to the list only twice before a forfeit is declared in the preliminary list. Once each of the four (4) preliminary lists has concluded, and the sixteen (16) fighters with the best records determined, the Minister of the Lists will place the fighters in a double elimination tree seeded from 1 to 16 according to the order of precedence of the procession.
In the semifinals, the fighter carrying a loss, must defeat the undefeated fighter twice to advance to the finals. The finals will be fought best two of three, bring your best weapons form. Matching weapons form is not required.
Arts & Sciences:Tempore Atlantia As is tradition, the Kingdom"s Tempore Atlantia judged A&S competition will be held at Spring Crown. The time period for this event is 1500-1600 AD. and is open to displays of items from any art, science, or culture of that era. Individuals may bring as many items as they wish to participate in a Tempore Atlantia exhibition. The only criteria will be that those items be from the time period being highlighted at that particular event. We hope that the Kingdom’s Laurels, Pearls, and others will make it a regular part of their event day to visit the display area and perhaps leave comments and/or tokens for participants. Entrants will be able to mark their items as “non- competitive” (display-only) if they choose.
