[Coastal] Coastal melee fighters

[Wise]

Greetings all:

As many of you may be aware, we are in the process of restructuring the
Ansteorran army.  Lately there has been a noticable drop off of coastal
region fighters (especially noticed at Three Popes where we were greatly
outmanned).  I realize that ren faire has tied up some of you during the fall
season, (not too many according to Gerald), but we are trying to get a jump
on Gulf Wars and the spring melee season.  If you are interested in fighting
melee in any capacity (including chivalric, rapier, archery or siege), then
could you please contact me or Sir Ulstead so that we can get a more accurate
idea as to who is currently active.  If you are interested, but are not
active for some reason (i.e. no armor) then please let me know that also so
we can help take care of whatever is keeping you off of the melee field.
I want to make a specific request to those fighters who are working with
other people so we can get an idea of who is out there.  This isn't limited
to those who are fielding a melee unit, but includes anyone who is helping to
organize or coordinate your local practice.
Finally, I would like to hear from anyone who is interested in becoming a
unit commander or learning to improve your melee commanding skills.
If you know of someone to whom this might apply, please forward it to them.
Thanks in advance, I'll look forward to seeing everyone at Bordermarch this
weekend if you're not going to the faire.

Sir Alexis
