Sealion War
Points

Field Points – 7 Scenarios for each discipline.
Limited Lives – 4 lives for each fighter (with exception to
2 
designated fighters for each side – 1 commander & 1
baron/baroness/
subcommander who will fight all scenarios)
During armour inspections, decals with 4 check boxes will be
issued to 
each fighter to indicate inspection status and also to
indicate lives.
As each person dies in each scenario, they will walk to a
resurrection 
point to be brought back to life (they will be marked for
each time 
they die).
Each scenario will allow for retreating in which the
retreating force 
forfeits the battle point. Individual fighters may choose to
desert a 
battle to preserve life.
Yielding is allowed by individual fighters and will not lose
their 
life, however must fight immediately on their captor’s
side for the 
next scenario (only one scenario).

Heavy & Rapier
Points (no archery or thrown weapons in rapier
points) 
– 14 pts total

Raiding Party (2
pts) – This scenario begins the war. Each party
will 
have their chance to protect their supplies (cardboard
boxes-or flags) 
from being raided. They can choose to defend, protect all
supplies 
(until they are all taken and brought to another point) or
abandon the 
camp and forfeit the battle. (Both sides attempt – 1 pt
each)

Forest Path Battle
(2 pts) – The war parties must get to their
rally 
points to get prepared for the ensuing field battles. They
must trek 
through the forest and make it to the rally point. Those that
make it 
to the rally point end their successful run and preserve
their life 
for the next point. (Both sides attempt – 1 pt each)

Open Field Battle
(2 pts) – The two waring parties meet on the
open 
field for two frontal assaults. Two retreat points for forces
to 
forfeit the battle will be made available (the point is
forfeit if all 
live forces make it to the rally point)

Driving the forces
off (1 pt) – Two sides meet across a river.
All 
unbelted fighters will fight on their knees in the shallow
river, while 
knights/dons, commander/warlords and Barons/baronesses are
on 
horseback (meaning they can stand and fight). This final
battle is to 
the last person standing.

Archery Points –
3 Pts

Maim Em’ and
Leave Em’
Archers have 30 seconds to shoot at
a designated target.
All Seagirtian archers or all Lions Gate archers shoot at the
same 
time or in waves. Target is decided randomly (eg. Left arm,
head, 
torso) 1 point for every hit on the target.
Each side will shoot at 3 designated targets.

Progressive
Popinjay
1 point for every hit on the popinjay bird.
To get to the popinjay you must first hit 4 other targets.
You start 
with 6 arrows and shoot at increasingly smaller targets. You
do not 
advance until you have hit the current target.
Three rounds of shooting.

Ring
Shoot
A ring of sorts is place on the butt approx 10-13”
diameter. 5 arrows 
each in two rounds. 1 point for every arrow COMPLETELY inside
the ring.

Arts Points – 3
pts

 

War is not only won on the field of
battle, but at home where tales 
from the field build morale which facilitates the continuing
support of 
the people to their respective armies. The arts points will
be the 
best representation of war propaganda. This could be about
embellished 
victories, heroes, legendary battles, plunders and rewards.
It can be 
presented as a literature, scroll, song, poetry or heraldry.
This can 
be totally fictitious, but must represent your home
barony.

Points will be given for the most creative execution,
best 
embellishment and best documentation

Science Points – 3 pts

In war, the need to keep your troops
well fed is an important 
necessity, but the long distances travelled to each battle
requires 
some careful preservation and selections of such foods. As
such the 
science points will be the best representation of period war
rations.

Points will be awarded to the rations that provides the best
balance 
of nutrition/energy, best execution, and best
documentation.
