<div>Greetings!</div>
<div> I would like thank all those who fought with the Coastal Region in the rapier melees at Gulf Wars XIX.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> Lord Collwyn O'Snowdon of Stargate fought in both the Field and Ravine Battles and showed well. He was a true soldier, following and executing orders well. Well done!</div>
<div> Don Corvin Fenarro of Stargate joined us it the Field Battle and was a rock. He survived when our line was torn apart by Atlantia and AEthelmearc and lived on to terrorize Atlantian White Scarves!</div>
<div> Baron Godwin of Eddington of Stargate fought with Coastal in the Field battle and stood as an impediment to any who would face him and grealty helped to reinforce our lines, not just with his skill, but also with great experience in melee. </div>
<div> Baron William Wescott of Welewen, Lord of Loch Soilleir fought in the Field Battle and followed orders as a true Ansteorran, keeping our shields steady against the foe.</div>
<div> Don Caelan MacRob of Loch Soilleir fought with Coastal in the Field , but was pulled away in the Ravine to serve his Kingdom elsewhere. Don Cael fought well and kept our line strong against an onslaught of Trimarin allies.</div>
<div> Lord Zane ap Simonn of Barony Bordermarch reinforced our lines in the Field Battle and fought hard to keep our line as stable as possible when met by 2 giants of the rapier field: Atlantia and AEthelmearc.</div>
<div> Count Simmon of Amber Isles, Baron Bordermarch, kept our flank stable in the Field Battle. He stood with Lord Zane to keep me, as commander, informed and able to make decisions for the regional unit. A difficult and necessary job.</div>
<div> Tristan de Fontaine of Seawinds fought in his Gulf War Ravine Battle and worked to fill in gaps, keeping possession of the flags in the hands of Ansteorra!</div>
<div> Sewalis of Barony Bordermarch also fought in his first Gulf War Ravine Battle and CONSTANTLY kept coming to fill in gaps as neccesary reinforcements, taking direction from myself and Baron Facon, Lieutenant Commander.</div>
<div> Lord Chrestian Brue of Barony Bordermarch was another first timer to the Gulf War Ravine Battle, but did not act like it. He and Sewalis teamed up to keep our lines strong and Lord Chrestian even worked to flank the enemy, sending them back to rez point.</div>
<div> Baron Thorland O'Shea of Graywood was absolutely instrumental in the Field Battle. As an experienced commander, he helped me realize what I needed to do. While legged, Don Shea acted as a lookout and gave me direction. His help was truly invaluable.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> I would also like to congratulate Duke Ulsted the Unsteady of Loch Soilleir and Don Caelan MacRob for their respective victories in the Rapier Champions Battle.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If I missed anyone, I sincerely apologize. I have not yet fully recovered from the trip. Thank you all for your support.</div>
