At this time (Apr 27, 2007), all cabins at the SeaLion War site are booked. I have started a waiting list; if you would like to be on it, please email me. Please note that I can make *no* guarantees that being on the waiting list will result in a cabin. :-)
There seems to different information floating about regarding the cost of staying in a cabin, so for those of you who have booked cabins, the costs are like this:
It does not matter how many people stay in a cabin - 1 person or 8 people, the cost is the *same per person*. The site does not charge us per cabin, they charge us *per person* using a cabin, so that is what we do. The cost includes site fee, but does not include NMS (if applicable).
So:
Cabin site fee: $25 (adults 19+), $15 (youths 13-18), children 12 and under are free
Camping site fee: $15 (adults 19+), $10 (youths 13-18), children 12 and under are free
Please forward to any appropriate list.

Scenarios for Sealion War
Armoured Combat - WARM-UP Battle
The warm-up battle will be an early-period vs. late-period war scenario. All personas pre-1000 will compete v.s. all later-period personas.
ARTS Point
10 foot rule point. Each Barony will provide 3 heavies, 3 rapier fighters and 3 target archers who can pass the 10-foot period rule. Each competitor starts with 10 points and removes 1 point for every period violation agreed on by the three judges.
The judges may not lift or reveal anything not already visible. Competitors will have to process past the judges and be able to proceed immediately to their chosen venue to compete..
All 9 competitors must be war-point capable in the remaining war points. (In other words the heavies have to pass heavy inspection, rapiers etc)
SCIENCES Point
Coin operated siege equipment. Using their imagination competitors must present an SCA combat-legal siege engine that will be initiated by coins. Bonus marks for creativity and ingenuity. Documentation and authenticity will be considered.
Armoured Combat Open Field (3x) 1 POINT (best of three)
Combat Archery will be allowed in the first and third battles to allow adequate time to glean and inspect missile weapons. Armies will switch sides before the third battle begins.
The Open Field Battle will be a last fighter standing battle. Combat archery is allowed in the first and third battles. Thrown weapons may be used with legal hand protection in all battles. Victory will be determined by the side that has fighters still alive.
Armoured Combat - The Shogun Scenario (1x) 1 POINT
Combat Archery will be allowed. Thrown weapons may be used with legal hand protection in all battles. The Shogun Battle will be a last fighter standing battle. No shields are allowed and weapons restricted to 6’ maximum length.
Armoured Combat - Ravine Battle (1x) 1 POINT
Combat Archery will be allowed. Thrown weapons may be used with legal hand protection in all battles. The Ravine Battle will be fought between two established lines. Archers will only be allowed to shoot straight down the ravine over or past their own troops and may not fire from positions outside of the ravine. The battle is considered over once one side makes it completely out of the other end of the ravine.
Armoured Combat - Bridge Battle (2x) 1 POINTS
There will be no archery in the bridge battles. Armies will switch sides after the first battle. Thrown weapons may be used with legal hand protection in all battles. This is a standard bridge battle fought till last man standing. Knights and Royal Peers may ford the river at any place along the river bank that they choose. If any fighter falls, takes a knee, puts a hand down into the river, or is legged while crossing the river that fighter is considered to have drowned and is dead.
Rapier Combat - WARM-UP Battle
The warm-up battle will be a colour coordinated battle. Left of the colour spectrum vs right of the colour spectrum war scenario.
Rapier (Hopefully Woods) Battle (1x) 1 POINT
This will be a timed, unlimited resurrection battle lasting 40-55 minutes. The woods boundaries, starting points and resurrection points for each side will be announced. All holds will be local and the clock will not stop during holds.
The objective of this battle will be to control three "flagpoles" located at fixed points within the woods. These locations will be known to each side prior to the start of the battle, and flagpoles may not be moved. A flagpole is controlled by the side whose banner is displayed on that pole, and control remains with that side until the pole is captured by an opposing side AND a new banner displayed. Until a new banner is "run up the flagpole" control has not changed. Control of each of these three flagpoles will be checked twice during the course of the battle, at random times unique to each flagpole. These times will be unknown to the combatants. Control will again be checked at the end of the battle, which will be at a randomly selected time ranging from 40 to 55 minutes after the start. The ending time will not be known to the combatants. Control of a flagpole (either during a random check or at the end of the battle) will result in one victory point being awarded to the side holding the pole. The War Point will be awarded to the side accumulating five or more victory points.
Natural obstacles (i.e. brush, fallen timber, etc.) may not be rearranged into a defensive position. The movement of obstacles is only permitted in order to lessen potential safety hazards and should be done under the supervision of a marshal. Fighting may not occur within 100 feet of each of the resurrection points; these resurrection zones will be clearly demarcated. Once a fencer is "killed", he or she must return to his or her own resurrection point in order to resurrect. Resurrections shall be instantaneous, and fencers may return to the battle once they reach resurrection point.
Rapier Open Field (3x) 1 POINT
Armies will switch sides before the third battle begins.
The Open Field Battle will be a last fighter standing battle. Victory will be determined by the side that has fighters still alive.
