ESTRELLA WAR 2009 TREATY SIGNED AND ONLINE!!
************************************************** 

The three Principal Kingdoms for the next Estrella War XXV (Feb 9-16, 2009)
published the Estrella War Treaty negotiated at a meeting held by the Crowns
and Heirs of the Kingdoms of Atenveldt (www.atenveldt.org), Caid
(www.sca-caid.org), and the Outlands (www.outlands.org) on October 18, 2008.
The guidelines in the treaty govern the medieval activities held at the
Estrella War, including heavy combat scenarios, rapier scenarios, target
archery shoots, and the Estrella War Arts and Sciences Competition. 

The Crowns and Heirs also added an additional day of war point scenarios and
archery shoots to the Treaty this year. Since the event opens a day earlier
than in  prior years (MONDAY FEB 9th for pre-registered attendees and
TUESDAY FEB 10th for General Admission), the treaty reserves WEDNESDAY FEB
11th for tournaments and special combat, and THURSDAY FEB 12th through
SATURDAY FEB 14th for war scenario activities and archery shoots. Additional
fighting “for the Glory of Combat” is also scheduled for SUNDAY FEB 15th. 

The Estrella War Treaty is negotiated annually to outline how the medieval
war between two "Allied Realms" will be conducted, and how each Principal
Kingdom can win the Right for their Populace to display one or more of four
Estrella War XXV Victory Pennants.  Announcements in this year's treaty
include the following:

- Allied Realm I in the conflict shall be the Kingdom of Atenveldt and the
Kingdom of the Outlands and their allies.  Allied Realm II shall be the
Kingdom of Caid and their allies.

- The dates, times, locations, setup and objectives for the heavy combat
scenarios, rapier scenarios, target archery shoots. 

- Judging criteria used in the Estrella War Arts & Sciences Competition. 

- The rules and guidelines a Principal Kingdom must use to win the Right for
their Populace to display an Estrella War XXIV Armored Combat Victory
Pennant, an Estrella War XXIV Arts & Sciences Victory Pennant, an Estrella
War XXIV Rapier Victory Pennant, or an Estrella War XXIV Archery Victory
Pennant.
