From the Heatherwyne Press, Vol. I, No. 4
The weekend after Coronation comes the FIRST HEATHERWYNE ANNIVERSARY and SECOND ANNUAL DESTRUCTION AND INTIMIDATION MELEE TOURNEY. This momentus event will occur June 9 at Olive Dale Park in Upland. (N.B.: The map in the May Crown Prints was re-drawn from the one sent in, and is wrong. Corrected version appears elsewhere in the Press.)
To suit the joyous and light-hearted nature of the occasion, there will be various types of formalized violence available, including:
- Single-weapon melee - No great weapons, no shields
- Off-handed melee - Weapon in shield hand and vice versa
- Legless melee - You can't be taken to your knees - you're already on them
- Orcish melee - Curved bladed or impact weapons only, must fight in a stoop or crouch, may not co-operate with other fighters
- Free-for-all ("Diplomacy") melee - "First we all get together and kill Paul, and then if there are any survivors..."
- Fight Yourself contest - Standard tourney gear, but your only opponent is yourself; go forth and die!
- Home Game - You don't even want to know
