“So, it’s settled! There will be a tournament!” exclaimed Salvor Braveblade, clasping his hands together and looking at the agreement being signed on the table before him. Many nations had pledged their support for a tournament of epic proportions, something to occupy the masses in this time of war and hatred.
“What’s the point of a tournament if it’s just to determine the best of the Royalists?” came a voice over the excited chatter around the tournament’s details. The chatter dulled to a murmur as people cleared a path for Sir Felix, wandering in toward Champion Salvor.
Salvor raised a brow at the implication. “Explain yourself. For I do not understand – you wish to invite Imperials to join this gathering?”
“Why not see who is the best in Markoth, nae, existence!” Let us truly have a spectacle to appease the masses”. Immediately the room broke out into giggles and laughter.
“He’s delusional!”
“He’s lost it!”
“Camdoria has lost it mind! The prince would never!”
“Be silent, ladies and gentlemen of the court!” a voice came swift, like a guillotine silences an unruly crowd. Lord-Proven Caldo of Drazin stepped up next to Sir Felix. He grinned at the knight before looking at the rather confused champion.
“Let us put out a magical invitation. To anyone who wishes to test their mettle, and to fight for their good name. Let us give them a chance to fight on the grandest stage Markoth has to offer. Let us invite the Imperials, and anyone else who may answer the call. Then, when all is said and done. We will have a true champion.”
The room filled with hushed whispers and concerned faces as the champion looked at the ground, and then up toward Magus Ursala of the Magic Academy. “Madam Magus, is this… invitation something you can conjure?”
The Magus nodded “It is. I am unsure who would potentially receive this message, but I am aware of communication spells that the academy holds. I will look into it”
“So, in your words, Champion Salvor. Yes, there will be a tournament!” Lord-Proven Caldo shook Salvor’s hand, signing his name on the line and sealing his crest on the document in support of the inaugural C.O.A.T. – Champion of Arms Tournament, to be held in Cardicordia.

We are incredibly proud to announce the inaugural Battlecry Community Day!
This annual event will embody everything Battlecry has grown to achieve. We will recognise those who contribute the most to the community, celebrate and foster the best features of our game (you!), and offer the participants an opportunity to share in a glorious celebration of what this game means to them!
The Community day event will be held at Rouse Hill Regional Park, on Saturday 22nd of October, 2022. Maps, and greater details of layout and facilities will be added into this post at a later date, once vendors, displays and arenas are set out.
Info on the event cant be found here!
This event will host immersive trader stalls, offering a wide range of products from weapons to costumes.
This event is outlined in our tournament blog post, Here.
In order to enter the Melee combat events, entrants must be participating members of a Battlecry chapter, and be marked as proficient with the weapons they are using.
Each entrant must also supply a heraldic shield or choose from a pre-selected pool to represent them (shields will be painted on blanks and used to keep track at the tournament).
We will work to continue to add features and exciting things to this event, however, we also want to ensure that everything goes smoothly for our first event.
We can't wait to see you! It's going to be epic!
