Radburne War V – 5th to 8th August 2011

Hamlet of Radburne Posted on by

It’s more war ye wanted, well ’tis more war ye shall have!

Due to popular demand, Radburne War has been extended for an extra day this year – more war, more fun and more food!

Come and join House Radburne for a weekend of war.

These are troubled times we live in and all are to do what they can to defend the helpless, the weak and the innocent! Raise your sword and be counted – honour and chivalry must not die!

There are rumblings from the south that a force is gathering to invade our lands – it is time to pick up sword and shield, pike or any manner of weapon that we may defend the Western Borders of our fair Barony of Rowany!

Beware – there are rebels rousing in these troubled times, not to mention the Assassins Guild taking advantage of the uncertainty and fear amongst the populace.

Where will you stand?

and I would just like to say a huge thank you to everyone who turned up and made it the great event it was and to all those who helped behind the scenes, I couldn’t have done it without you!

Thankfully the gods were on our side and the weather cleared for the weekend! It will however be forever known as the ‘bog wars’ as the mud claimed 5 cars (who got bogged) and several fighters. Much fun and laughter was had by all and it turned out to be a great weekend. We did make a profit and those funds will be used to improve shelter for next year.

I hear the bardic circle was a huge success on Saturday night – thanks Sorle for taking charge of this – unfortunately I had to miss it as my bed was calling to me 🙂
