Vindheim Missile Championship!
A message from the current champion:
Greetings Vindhomies!
The Vindheim Archery Championship tourney will be held at Wiesenfeuer's Baronial event to find my successor! The shoot is to take place right after lunch to let folks rest from potential involvement in the Baronial Championships held in the morning. No loaner gear will be provided by me, you must come prepared with a bow and minimum of 6 arrows, no gear sharing during the shoot.
There is a Google sign-up list this year to help get an idea of the potential number of archers. Whether you aim to shoot to win or just for fun, please fill out the form below, I can mark your shoot intentions the day of. This list does not lock you into shooting and does not keep you from shooting if not filled out, it does however help me by getting the correct spelling of your name for the cool parchment scroll you'll get when you win! If you have issues filling out the form below, please DM me.

For those who have never won a Championship before, what does it entail?
First off, only those who live in Vindheim can win this one. As Champion you are expected to stand in court behind their Highnesses and guard them with the beautiful Vindheim Crossbow. You are encouraged to attend events they do and take part in entourage shifts if possible. When unable to attend an event they are attending it's up to you to find a stand-in to hold the bow and represent behind the thrones (if they want you to, I've always asked if it's needed/desired). I encourage the winner to help inspire new and current shooters to shoot and have fun and become an archery marshall if not one already. And when your time is up you get to design and run the shoot that finds your replacement!
Wiesenfeuer Thrown Weapons Championship!
This competition will be done in three rounds, Spear, Knife and Ax. Those that are planning on participating in the championship should come prepared with their own knives and axes, there will be loaner spears available.
Wiesenfeuer Archery Championship!
This competition will be done in four rounds. Be prepared to be challenged with this Robin Hood themed championship. Those that are planning on participating in this championship should come prepared with their own bow and arrows.
Wiesenfeuer Chivalric Championship!
This tournament will be a Swiss 5. Fighters choice of weapons with no repeating weapon styles.
Wiesenfeuer Rapier Combat Championship!
This tournament will be three rounds.
1. The Competition. Best 2 out of 3. Here each of the fighters will test their accuracy. Each fighter will roll a die. What the fighter rolls dictates what the area their opponent has to hit in order to win the bout. All shots that are not on the one rolled, will not count.
2. The Celebration. Best 2 out of 3. Each fighter will have a flagon (rubber mug), and a dagger. The flagon is a rigid rapier device, no killing with it. Besides that, all shots count, have fun.
3. The Flare. Best 2 out of 3. Single sword and your wit. Think Errol Flynn, play the part of Robin Hood, the more flare the better.
Robin Hood Themed Scenarios for all!
