In working with Mistress Isbella, the Atlantian Minister of the Lists,
we have worked out the following policy for distributing the complete
set of rules governing combat in Atlantia.

Effective November 1st: Each time an authorization card is issued, the
fighter will have an opportunity to request that a complete set of rules
be sent to them.  The Kingdom Minister of Lists will send a copy of the
current version of each rules document to those fighters that wish a
set.  This rules distribution will be funded from the authorization
fees.

For authorizations and authorization renewals there will be a $5.00 fee,
a gold card, for everyone.  This would fund the direct distribution of
rules and would fund the direct expenses of the Minister of Lists'
office and the Earl Marshal's office.  Funds in excess of these
expenditures, will go into the Kingdom's general fund.  We will start
with a $5.00 fee.  The fee will be modified yearly to be less than $1.00
per person in excess of all costs.

We are considering the following rule changes and would like comments
from anyone interested.

Effective November 1st:
A) Fighters may authorize in the various weapon forms in any order.
B) All spears must be nine (9) feet long or less.  

Yours in Service to Atlantia,
Richard Fitzgilbert
