| Pre-register | Maps & Directions | Autocrats | Merchants | Schedule |
Their Highnesses of Avacal, Prince Hjalti and Princess Eirika, wish to invite the populace of Avacal and beyond to Their Coronet tournament to determine the new heirs of Avacal. Site opens at 5pm on Friday, June 5th, and closes at 2:00 pm on Sunday, June 7th.
His Highness Hjalti has declared that His Coronet Tournament will be a standard double elimination tournament format, with the weapons being restricted to three striking surfaces (any combination of blades/thrusting tips not to exceed three total,) and shield sizes same as required by HRM Vik for May Crown. That being: "Heater style shields must be shoulder to shoulder, chin to crotch. These measurements will be checked with the combatant in armor, sitting on a bench and not lifting their chin. Round shields will be measured elbow to elbow with the top two knuckles of each hand touching. In both shield styles, material may be moved from the sides and added to the top and bottom to change the shape. A fighter may only reduce the width to a maximum of half."
