The Greit Cursing

“To Arms! To Arms! That detestable English Warden William Eure has come to the north breaking the March law, bringing the sword to our peaceful land with scabrous, wicked, craven riders to take what is ours, sully our women and throw down our very homes! To Arms we call the loyal Clans, To Arms we will ride to the land of the Armstrong’s and find the little brute and his fiends there within the tower of Whithaugh upon the Liddle. Here he has taken our men, our beasts and our treasure. Ride and we will cast them out, out of dear Scotland back to England and the muddy holes whence they skulked from!”

Coming to Huzzah! 2020 The Portland Historical Gamers, with the support of Maine Historical Wargamers Association, will host a gathering of the Clans and run a game based on the late 16th century Scots, English Border Reivers. The Portland group will stand as the English foe and dare all takers to cast them out.

The game will be an invitational club participation game along the lines of past events Viking Dawn, Boxer Rebellion and Sabis.

Please stay tuned for further details as we build this project we will have a website soon for you to follow for news and more details as it’s rolled out for the event. We will also email and post to MHWA social pages as well.
