We are excited to announce that the theme for this year's Lilies War will be VIKINGS AGAINST THE WORLD> During the 8th through the 12th Centuries the Norse, Danes, Swedes, and other northern peoples went Viking, traveling throughout the western world raiding, trading, and settling. They met the Irish, English, Scots, Britons, Franks, Romans, Spanish, Moors, Byzantines, even Russians. We are planning numerous activities incorporating this theme into the war, such as boat battles, raids, Viking games, axe-throwing, and demonstrations of Viking era arts ans sciences. We are asking that fighters and archers form units to represent the various tribes, clans, and nationalities involved in these conflicts, and then that the unit commanders for the two sides select overall commanders from amongst themselves. We would appreciate if the units would contact us so that we may make a list of the units forming.
