A successful event beyond the hopes of those that held it. Hosted by Crimson Circle of Green Bay, Wisconsin that had attendance close to 150 people. Where 6 provinces were represented! A very well organized and reeved large class battle was played with little to any issues. Where one side wore Yellow fabric headbands, while the other did not making for quick and easy discernment of teammates. Newbies and experienced amtgarders were telling stories of the fun during and after the event!

Here it is! Crimson Circle and the Frostlands presents the GREAT
NORTHERN BATTLE! This is the chance to fight a huge class battle, we
are hopping for a hundred people a side. This is not a raid, the
sides will be mixed teams divided as evenly as possible. The exact
rules can be found on www.crimson- circle.net
- When: April 20th 2008
- Where: Frostlands Winnebego County Park location
- What: A chance to fight a HUGE class battle.
- Why: Recruiting is the primary motivation but who doesn't love a huge battle.
- Cost: nothing
There will be a BBQ following the battle. Please bring what you can for the food.
The primary motivation for this is recruiting. It is a fact that newbies that take part in large battles like this have a much better retention rate than those that wander into a normal park day. So bring your newbies. Bring your veterans. Bring your families. Hell bring your dogs (must be leashed, and there is a dog park nearby).
We will need a head count as soon as possible for certain rentals.
