Introduction

100 Minutes War is an annual event traditionally held the Saturday before Thanksgiving in the Shire of Rusted Woodlands. The event is usually one of the last outdoor fighting events of the year, and has grown to include fencing, archery, and thrown weapons (weather and personnel permitting). With the inclusion of East Kingdom Novice Day, we now host novice events of all kinds as well as the main events.

The 30th 100 Minutes War was held on November 17, 2018, in Sparta, NJ.


For the next 100 Minutes War details, please use the East Kingdom Event Page [1] where you will find information for November.

Highlights

  • Captains for the heavy weapons battle are chosen through an Atlantean speed tourney
  • Once captains and sides are chosen, the melee battle continues for 100 Minutes.

Media

100 Minutes War inspires the East Kingdom and inter-Kingdom visitors from the Middle Kingdom, Æthelmearc, and Ealdomere to make art, food, martial activity scenarios, and has a site well-suited for all activities.

Videographers have created promo videos that help convey the feeling of the heavy activities.

Artisans also show their wares in a market so that you may get your holiday shopping a head start.

The Court at 100 Minutes War is very immersive and is a warm space full of celebration, laughter, and camaraderie often visited by the Heirs to the throne of the Middle Kingdom.
