The Siege of Black Tower

Pocahontas State Park

Swift Creek Camp

10301 State Park Road

Chesterfield, VA 23838



Can't you feel the enemy’s ships slink up our beautiful rivers with the
intent of sneaking into Atlantia unawares? Fortunately, we are preparing for
that day and look forward to seeing many of our Atlantian warriors in
attendance and ready to ward off the attack.  Our one restriction is the
number of good gentles our precious tower can accommodate, on the day of the
battle that number being 150 adults.



Many preparations are being made to make your stay comfortable and
enjoyable.  Our very skilled Canton MAOS will present a brewing competition
that will take place in the main hall.  Our beloved Baronial MAOS will have
an Arts and Sciences Competition going on about things that you might do
during a siege (or perhaps snowbound.)



The fighting, oh my!  As you might imagine, our glorious heavy fighters will
offer defense of our tower in the form of melee assaults and defenses.  Our
skilled rapier fighters will use their skills to load the scales to our
advantage. Our archers, the best in the land, will display the precision
that is the “way of the bow” to light our way to victory.



After the fighting, what a splendid feast the good folks of the river will
have prepared in the great feast hall.  Imagine what tales of glory and
honor will be told around that table. Make this a time to come and honor our
current Baron and Baroness, their Excellencies Bryce de Byram and Melisent
la Ruse as their service to the barony has been splendid and calming to our
hearts.



To help with our efforts to raise the needed warriors for the battle, I will
be at the Baronial fighter practice pre-registration forms.



For The Siege of Black Tower pre-registration will be a critical part of
this event.
