History

First Meeting:12/15/2002 Last meeting:6/12/2005

Broken Shield was a Sunday park in the heart of Dallas, at White Rock Lake Park. It was formed by Yoni and Elder. Yoni wanted a Sunday park in Dallas as he could not attend Saturday parks, and Elder wanted a closer Sunday park so that he and his friends could play Amtgard on both Saturday and Sunday.

At the EH event before its first meeting, the founders asked for suggestions for the name of the new park. Clu suggested Broken Shield. He said that name had come to him in a vision during his Knighting Vigil.

During most of the life of Broken Shield, the majority of the populace were former Midnight Sun members. For the first year the only battle company present was Gryphon's Claw. There was a time period in 2003 that Midnight Sun considered merging with Broken Shield as the attendance at Midnight Sun averaged 3, whereas the attendance at Broken Shield was in the high teens. Fortunately the attendance at Midnight Sun recovered and the two parks coexisted with quite a lot of cross attendance until the decline of Broken Shield in 2005. In early 2005 the population reached a low point, averaging 3 a week, and plans were made to merge with Iron Cloud and the people trying to restart Tear Glen to form Campus Supernus. Ironically Campus Supernus did not last a year, and the members who had left Midnight Sun so many years ago voted to return their residency there in 2006.
