    To the honor of our Lughnasadh Faire and Tailtean Games, the Great Lord Lugh Lamfoda has paid us a visit and left us with a gift. That great gift is the use of his famous Spear, the Gáe Assail or Spear of Lightning, for the duration of our games. And what a spear it is…

    Lugh Spear


    Over five cubits in length it is, from razor point to metal-capped butt. The tales say it was forged in Gorias in the times before memory, and brought to Eire by the Tuatha De. Three stone and more, this weapon weighs, enough to test the stoutest warrior. The shaft is of straightest ash, hardened in the fires of Credne himself.

The distance is not great for a practiced thrower. A mere six spear-lengths from here to there. You will have three casts, and no more. Simply click anywhere on the target dummy and watch for his response. For each of your three tries, please to note your score and any comments or advice our wisecracking dummy may offer. Then tell us, in your best bragging style, how you did. That’s all there is to it for this first part of the game. You can post one try at a time, or all three together. Post your results on this thread.
