War Point Challenge

This year at War of the Wings, the bar has been raised across the boards.
The War Point Challenge can certainly be no different! Each participating
barony is being challenged to field an interdisciplinary team in order to
present to the populace a display inspired by their heraldry!

Display entries must include:


   -

   A representation of the Arts of Peace: Present a piece of clothing that
   has a heraldic representation integrated into it
   -

   A representation of the Arts of War: Present a piece of armor or a
   weapon that has heraldic representation integrated into it
   -

   The banner that flies over the Arts of Peace and War: Present a War
   Banner that represents your barony as a whole

   Each barony that enters the display will declare a side, the side that
   acquires the most points amongst the displayed entries wins the A&S war
   point! Points will be gathered not only by judges from the A&S
   competitions, but by the votes of the populace as they cast their votes for
   their favorite display!

   No documentation is required for entries that are placed on display, the
   only requirement being that the creativity within the barony is unleashed!
   Let's put the Creative into the SCA and make something that future
   generations strive to top!



   The Fancy of Her Highness: Equestrian Barding

   A call to the populace has been made! Her Highness, being fond of all
   things Equestrian, wishes to see the artisans of her Kingdom display their
   fondness as well. This competition is open to all manner of arts from songs
   and poems to barding, research and illumination. Submit your entry with a
   strong emphasis on horses and other beasts of animal husbandry so that we
   might all bring joy to Her Highness!




   The Fancy of Her Highness: The Dogs of War

   Her Highness and Her Excellency Alianor have cried out to let slip the
   dogs of war! During the Heraldic Processional to take place on Saturday
   morning, the best dressed war dog will be selected! So break out the armor
   and barding for your best friend as they march to war in style!













   Period Research Paper

   *Sponsored by Baron Thorgrimr inn Kyrri*

   A lot of hard work and dedication is behind each and every research
   paper that is submitted with your Arts and Science entry. Now, for those
   that have put particular effort into their research in and of itself, we
   have something special just for you! Bring in your favorite research paper
   so that we might all learn from the knowledge that you have gathered.
   Entries should be in on Thursday, and be available for reading through the
   close of the Village on Saturday afternoon.



   All About that Skien

   It has been said many times that the art of spinning is simple to
   discover, but difficult to master. Show off the finest of your home goodies
   during the gathering of Fiber Artists on Saturday afternoon, where the
   favorite entry will be selected by the assembled fiber enthusiasts!
   Documentation is highly encouraged, and extra brownie points will be
   awarded for steps to color your own spun entries using period media.



   Ransom Scroll Competition

   The competition is simple - create a scroll blank that features period
   looking peeps and goats! Declare your side and the winning side will be
   granted not only points that contribute to the overall A&S War Point, but

   note, entries into the Ransom Scroll competition are intended to be
   directly donated to the winning side.)*
