Unto the  glorious and now much renowned fighting population of Ponte- 
Bach, does  Baron Maximilian Von Halstern send congratulations,  
greetings, and  this urgent missive.

Your *outstanding* performance on the fields of  Pennsic and before  
that at Blackstone Raid and the Sapphire Joust  Melee Tournament has  
truly set the bar for unit excellence and has  led his Grace, Duke  
Cuan, to try to increase the focus on melee  fighting throughout our  
great Kingdom by hosting a new ten-person  melee tournament at the  
Coronation of Prince Jason and Princess  Gerhild.

Whilst we have truly just journeyed far in defense of Crown  and  
Kingdom, and whilst 'tis true their Highnesses' Coronation is  not  
close to home, *now* is the time to cement our rightful place  and  
standing and prove our worth and prowess as a cohesive and  mighty  
melee unit to glorious and proud Atlantia.

We can, of  course, take the easier and softer route... claiming  
fatigue and  distance.  Or we can choose the path less travelled, and  
take  up the gauntlet of challenge and strive to again demonstrate to  
all  what we know in our hearts to be true!  That together as a team,   
we can rise to any challenge and meet and conquer any foe that might   
come before us!

As we did before with Blackstone Raid, we can  coordinate ridesharing,  
caravanning, room-sharing (hotels or cabins  if still available), off- 
site meals, etc... through the Expeditionary  Corps to help ensure  
everyone who wants to go can get there and back  and to minimize costs.

Together we have come so far and done great  things in such a short  
amount of time.  I hope that we will be  willing to keep walking down  
the path together and put together a  mighty team of ten (or perhaps  
two teams of ten!) along with the  support personnel to help make such  
a team possible (for truly, we  *cannot* do any of this without our  
tremendous support  personnel).

Please let me know if you are willing to participate and  join us in  
this effort to maintain the hardfought position we have  gained.  You  
can reach me at warlord at pontealto.org.  If  you would like to  
participate in the ridesharing, carvanning,  room-sharing/planning and  
off-site meals and such, please let us  know at expeditionary at pontealto.org 
.

It has been and remains my  privilege and honor to be in service,

Baron Max Von  Halstern
