Allied Champions Battle
The planned war points for this year’s Pennsic were changed slightly due to accessibility issues with the woods and the extreme heat index. Both woods battles were cancelled. A substitute heavy list battle was fought, but martial activities were canceled for the time when a substitute rapier battle would have been fought. Instead of the planned 28 points, there were a possible 27 points. The East took 24 of those points. A detailed chart of the war points follows.

In an effort to encourage crossing over to different fields at the war, I would like to announce the following:
If you compete in armored combat, rapier, archery, or thrown weapons, and you compete in all war point activities which you are eligible for in at least two of these areas, I would like to recognize your efforts with a token.
(For archery and thrown weapons, that means throwing or shooting each shoot/throw as many times are you are allowed.)
If you compete in all war point activities for three of these areas, there will be a slightly different token.
If you compete in all four, well, one, you’re insane. But if you do, I’ll have to think of something because I don’t really expect it…🙂

Dans le but d’encourager la participation aux différentes activités martiales à la Grande guerre, j’annonce ce qui suit :
Si vous participez au combat en armure, à l’escrime, au tir à l’arc ou aux armes de jet, et si vous participez à toutes les activités auxquelles vous êtes éligible et qui contribuent aux points de guerre dans au moins 2 catégories, j’aimerais vous récompenser en vous donnant un gage particulier.
À titre d’exemple, pour le tir à l’arc et les armes de jet, cela implique de tirer ou de lancer aussi souvent que vous y êtes autorisé.
Si vous participez à 3 catégories, un gage un peu différent vous sera octroyé. Et si par la plus grande des chances, vous en veniez à participer à 4 activités, eh bien….vous êtes complètement fou!
Mais si vous le faites réellement, je devrai trouver quelques chose, car je ne m’attend pas à cette possibilité!

The East took two of the three populace shoots, for 6 war points!
Castle Window shoot
The three traditional populace archery war point shoots were adapted to this year’s safari theme. Each shoot was worth three war points. Archers could shoot each of the three shoots up to five times on their own schedules, spreading them out over the five days the range was open for war point shooting, or doing them all at once if they wished.
On the Castle Window range, archers had 30 seconds to shoot as many arrows or bolts as possible into the window about 30 yards away, for one point each, or into the monkey hanging in the window, for two points per hit.
Rhinos and Elephants
This year’s “Soldiers” were elephants and rhinoceroses. Archers could shoot six shots at their choice of target. Hits on the closest (about 15 yards) scored one point; two points for hits on the second rank of targets (about 35 yards); three points for hits on the third distance (about 45 yards); and four points for hits on the farthest distance (about 55 yards).
Alligator in moat, Giraffe in castle
The center of the Clout was at the usual 100 yards, but the perimeter of the castle was square this year. Archers had six shots to send at their choice of the moat (about 50 yards away) or the castle turret. Shots landing in the moat scored one point; hits on the alligator in the moat earned two points; shots landing inside the castle were worth three points; and hits on the giraffe earned four points. The giraffe was about twelve feet tall, and proved to be a durable and well-designed — and challenging! — target; shots high on the neck or head could be retrieved by lowering the hinged upper portion. If tales told are correct, the giraffe was herded to Pennsic fully upright, and wore its own EZ-Pass transponder!
Dead monkey!
No accurate counts exist for the numbers of archers who shot in each of the war point shoots, but over 2200 inspection stickers were issued, giving a rough estimate of the overall participation.
At the end of war point shooting on Friday, final tallies were done and the East won 6 of the 9 available war points, as follows:
Castle Window: East = 2119, Midrealm = 1670
Soldiers: East = 7062, Midrealm = 5775
Clout: East = 4806, Midrealm = 4880
