Monday February 9th – Monday February 16th 2009
Estrella War is a week-long, annual event hosted and run by the Kingdom of Atenveldt, one of 19 Kingdoms (regional chapters) of the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), a not-for-profit educational organization that studies western European history by recreating the "best" pastimes and crafts of the Middle Ages. SCA participants devote their free time to tournaments, educational collegiums (classes), feasts, revels, the many forms of medieval warfare, and all sorts of arts and sciences dating from pre-1600s western Europe. Currently in its 25th year, the Estrella War brings together over 7,000 participants from SCA chapters around the world to conduct a medieval style two-sided war between SCA Kingdoms.
Each year, the Kingdom of Atenveldt invites one or more other SCA Kingdoms to participate as Principal Kingdoms at Estrella War. Some of those Kingdoms ally with Atenveldt, and some join together to oppose the Atenveldt forces. At the end of the week, the right for residents of a victorious Principal Kingdom to display victory pennants is awarded to the side that wins campaigns waged by heavy combat and rapier armies on the battlefield, to the side that wins scenarios in a target archery competition, and to the side with the most points in a competition of those skilled in Arts & Sciences of the Middle Ages. For Estrella War XXV (Feb 2009), the Kingdom of Atenveldt is pleased to announce that the Kingdom of Caid and the Kingdom of the Outlands have accepted invitations to participate as Principal Kingdoms.
Estrella War offers all the members of your family a chance to spend a week camping and living with thousands of others as part of a medieval town with a robust Merchant’s Row. Held in February at Canyon Moon Ranch in Florence, AZ, the event provides those who are interested in things Medieval with a diverse combination of the exciting activities offered by the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA). We invite you to explore the details of the event on these webpages, and to come join us in the warm Atenveldt Sun for a Glorious escape from the modern world!
