ARCH - Royal Huntsman

[Harry C. Billings]

I have only been to one or two AoB but shooting the Royal Huntsman should
NOT be a majior problem . We are there to shoot and teach, or is it to teach
and shoot. As to the difference in term IIRC the primere was at Stepps
Warloard and the second at Ravens Fort Defender 5 monhts. Yes it would only
be two months but there is no law against defending.

>This is true.  I approached them yesterday with my

>their Coronation.  They like the idea, if the archery

>One obvious drawback is that means that one Royal

>Spring Faire until Coronation.  Another drawback is 
>whatever size monkeywrench it'll throw into the class 
>schedule at AoB; I don't have any idea how big a

>One apparant advantage is that the Royal Huntsman could

>Coronation ceremony, like the King's Champion.  Another 
>is that we could then immediately turn around and begin 
>seeking bids kingdom-wide for the following reign's 
>Royal Huntsman's tourney.

>This needs feedback.  Sebastian?  Fearghus?  Wilim?  
>Anybody?  Anybody?

>I'm copying the Crown Princess on this posting so that 
>she'll have an update on the status of this suggestion, 
>and know that it's by no means a done deal.
