You know Nuala has a very good point about more modern themes. I think something between 600 and 1500 is a very good idea. I suggest we push some more ideas around. I m really found of the Tales of Genghis Khan.
The Crusades offer great stories and rich imagery.
Maybe Battles through out the Centuries? Like the battle of Troy? The Saxon Wars, Muslim conquest of southern Italy, battles at Constantinople . . .
Or the Spanish inquisition? witches, Priests, Kings and so much more.
And the biggest part of Medieval folklore were dragons.
Beowulf
Heraclius
Maybe we can do a theme of the Silk Road. We can break it up into sections and create stations that represent different spots along the route.
Just some more thoughts.

> I haven't been on the lists much but this caught my eye. I did a 15-station shoot on Alice in Wonderland two years ago for the Barony of Storvik's Birthday and Investiture. At the time I thought it would be?a fun theme that?at least had chess sets and a queen in it, so what the hell. It was?a blast?to think up all the targets, and we had a great day on the range, but I took a?ton of flack for the theme and the fact that it is not medieval in the least. I have learned a lot since then and have realized that there are so many wonderful shoot ideas that ARE medieval - - at least in their imagery - - that there's no real reason to pull from popular culture or out-of-period places. I would never choose to do another shoot on a modern theme, myself. Two years ago Jonathas (and his wife!) put on a kingdom archery shoot based on Gaston Phebes Book of the Hunt which was just spectacular, just gorgeous. I know the East did a Star Trek Champions shoot year
> before last,?but I think Atlantia can make this shoot a great one while respecting the fact that we are all actors in a drama that is supposed to take place in 600 - 1600,?Europe.?Last year before St. Sebastian's I put about a dozen ideas out on the list and Lorelei liked medieval monsters, which I think?ended up being?a nice shoot theme from which everyone could come up with their own angle/artwork. I just want to encourage you all to take one little step back and consider picking a theme that is in fact related to the era we are supposedly reenacting.
