Greetings.<BR><BR>I write to you this day to issue a challenge from the noble

honorable combat with heavy weapons. We seek fighters of merit, who wish
to hone their skills and test their mettle on the field of battle.<BR><BR>We
will meet on the list field of War Practice at 7PM on Friday May 21, and we
