[MR] Artisans learning about fighting

[Adeliza of Bristol]

Greetings all,

I wanted to interject as well that the Office of the KMoL very frequently offers classes on tourneys. These classes illustrate how the tourneys run from start to finish. They are not aimed at MoLs exclusively, but are ment for anyone to learn how each of the many tourney available to us in Atlantia are run correctly. Marshals, fighters, artisans, Autocrats, innocent bystanders, and everyone else is more than welcome to attend these classes anytime they wish. Also, these are classes that can be taught by anyone proficient in the knowledge, not specific MoLs as in the case of the warranting class.

So, if you are interested in what all tourneys are available to use in our Kingdom, they are in the MoL Handbook, beginning on page 38. Here is a direct link to the .pdf for your convenience:
http://mol.atlantia.sca.org/Handbook/MoLHandbook60106.pdf

If you are interested in having a class taught, please contact Master John le Burguilliun (see regnum near you) for assistance. If you are planning a tourney and you would like some assistance, please contact the MoL nearest you as soon as possible!

And of course, anytime I can be of service, just say the word!

Adeliza,
KMoL
