The Shire

a Chapter

What is a Shire?

The smallest sized Amtgard chapter. Under most contracts the required number of active players per a six month period is five. This is also the general term for a new group, no matter what it's size.

What can a Shire do?

Shires may grant a limited number of awards, and no ladder award may be given above rank 2 or 3, depending on which kingdom they're under; BL limits them to 2, while EH permits 3. Most shires are not allowed to give any titles of Nobility, though some kingdoms allow shires to grant a sheriff that stepped down after a successful term the title of Lord.

The next step

Once a shire grows to an average of 20 people per week in a six month period, they qualify to become a Barony.
