Dan I hope it will be, as a group we have been trying to do this event in Brittania for years now. Asking all those with artillery to a competition. But no one would till now, with the help from english heritage.
LEG II AUGVSTA
LEG VI VICTRIX Antonine Gaurd
LEG XX VALERIA VICTRIX Legion Ireland
Good luck to all those taking part, will be a good weekend.

Hi Juuso I am afraid no photos of the event, taken part ment I could not film or photo it. But we all had great fun we came top for the Ballista on both days but with the other disciplines we came 2nd Sat and 3rd Sun. With the Antonine gaurd winning both days congrats to them
there are photos on farcebook of the event. Hope to redeem ourselves next year

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867

Thanks Ivor
it was all done with outstanding camaraderie on all teams helping each other out. But the Hasta we had to use not a javelin
was the shape of a banana not the easiest thing to throw. So busy making a hasta to practice with as well as a Fvstibalvs for our displays.
