Greetings,

This Saturday I was fighting at AnTir West War on Saturday Afternoon I
suffered from a heat related injury and took my armor off on the field
prior to being treated by the chirurgeons. Following that treatment I 
went
back to my campsite to get out of the sun. During the evening someone 
took
my armor and a number of peoples weapons from the field. I questioned 
every
person I know and none of them had picked my armor up and I waited at 
to be
the last person to leave the site on case someone picked it up by 
accident
and was going to turn it in to lost and found. No one did turn it in and
with the other weapon disappearances at this event I can only assume it 
has
been stolen.

TO whoever stole my armor and is sitting back laughing your head off 
while
reading this. Let me just say that to steal an injured fighters armor
brands you as the lowest form of scum. And I strongly hope that those 
who
value the ideals of honor in our society treat you as the cur you are.

I would greatly appreciate it if those of you with access to other 
Kingdom E.
Lists could post the following and also keep an eye out for anyone 
selling
used armor in their kingdoms:
