Will you provide the polearms or do we need to bring our own? If the latter, are magic weapons allowed?

[BlackFoot]

I will be supplying all polearms, you will be able to chose which you want to use based on your skills

[voodoo]

I don't have a character for any of these, but I will cover the ingots for and supply the equipment to be handed out (if you want) and donate a prize of 10 "combat sets" sets of the winner's choosing.

[Sandro]

I'll be there.

[SirEricKain]

This is definitely something I was hoping to recreate in the future, and by far the greatest idea for an event I have witnessed. count us in!
