Many thanks for participating to Sotahuuto, and once more doubling the amount of foreign participants!

We hope to continue the trend:

Your amazing participant horde in Sotahuuto absolutely demands a massive counter strike at Nordic Equinox (12.-14.2008) ! I'm in!

El Muerte shall send troops also, I'm not sure how much but at least two. Last year all the finns used Rämä tabards but maybe this year we should design "national team" tabards and banner (blue and white?).

I think it would be better to go as several teams. There should be enough finnish participants to get two (or more) teams. Those teams could go to different sides to maximixe contacts to Estonians and avoid "maaottelu" if other side is mostly finnish participants. We can see each other in Finland in other events, so it would be nice to disperse us into smaller groups among Estonians and fight at their side and get to know them much better than in case of one big group (80 in one group is more than enough :wink: )

Every and all participants from Finland are welcome.

* We have built the castle a lot higher, since last year - I will try to make a gallery from the game area and update it, when something changes.

* The scenario descriptions are up but they are probably going to change a bit (the changes will most likely be "cosmetical" though).

All of your questions will be answered ASAP. You can post them here, PM me or send me an e-mail.

WHAT? Don't you want to see 160 Vishna Grim horde, fighting in a same team in Sotahuuto -09? :D

Let's wait until we have at least some confirmed participants until we start splitting into several teams. 80 is a stretch goal, anyhow (though it might be possible, I don't know...l

I definitely see Gnomus' point, though, and at this moment am slightly against the concept of national team tabards.

BTW, any hostels/hotels/motels near Kassinurne? I can imagine staying in one.

Also, still no AP's for gambesons, i guess?

And only 1 AP from a bascinet with a grill?

It's unfortunate that 20mm fibreglass is out, our current spears cannot be used.

About lodging. Most players prefer to use tents. But... there are some extra options available if needed (inconvenient options but still)...

If there is need for it, we can organize indoor lodging for up to 60 people (well it would be a bit cramped). There is a building with a hall and a fireplace nearby - but nothing else (no showers, kitchen etc.). But you'd have to confirm this with us, well in advance. It is still a short drive or a long walk from the game area. This option is not available for a single person or a small group.

7 km from the area is Jõgeva, a moderate size town which surely has at least some lodging possibilities.

And last but not least, the location is a 45min. drive from one of the largest cities in Estonia (Tartu) - there you could have all the luxury you are willing to pay for.

***

I will make a special topic for rules discussion but a quick answer here: "No points for gambeson. Bascinet with a sufficient grill will give 2 AP.
20mm fiberglass is definitely out - use 20mm bamboo for polearms."

I'm thinking of comin' if i can make it and my dumb civ. service pay permits. Waiting another year for SH09 is a bit too long a time. ;)

The word you are looking for is conscious objector. Civil servant is a politician.. BTW and OT :)

Regarding the OT; depends on the context. The concept is hard to translate since saying "army service as a web manager at a university" is too long. :P


But yes back to the topic...

Offtopic....

Actually a civil servant is a person working for the goverment ("valtion virkamies" in Finnish), not a politician.

You'd have to start a serious recruiting program though - for in 2015 you'd have to haul about 1.3 million fighters across the gulf, if the trend continues.

It seems that we are forced to rely on mercenaries in 2015 :shock: Or then we have to master Rämä-style recruitment policy. :)

But if we do that, you can't double anymore, because you run out of people. If.

We push our border against Chinese border. After that the recrutiment won't be problematic ;)

You also may have to expand the fortress a bit.
