Indeed, Your Majesty, this should be the "wake-up call" to all of Your 
Warlords, Kingdom and Regional.... Now is the time to train for _next 
year's_ Wars...

Agreed...! "Wind sprints" in armor come to mind... Passing attacks at 
full charge between groups of combatants... Hunter/Killer units... The 
visions...the Visions.......!!

I do remember those days Your Majesty... Perhaps at Crown, You might 
wish to hold a Grand Tournament on Saturday where all that wish to vie 
for the Crown MUST fight. Then hold the Crown Lists early Sunday 
morning........ Ahhhhhh...memories....
