Galatia Forums

Hail, message board! I am Swordbrother Robric Haldane of The Kingdom of Gwynedd, swordbrother to Kinsman Tauron Haldane, WarDuke of our King's armies. I stumbled on your forum purely by accident. I was actually looking for another warband down in Richmond. I am a Dagorhir fighter, but several of our guys do Markland SCA too, Lord Freewynd, Lord Talon, Lord Arabus, and several others. The Galatia I was looking for is attached to VCU and run by some college guys, good friends of mine, and hardy fighters all. But well met! I have been looking to break into hat fighting, but I've had a run of bad financial luck... Where is your unit located? How old is it? How many members do you have?

Well met and hello.
we are located south of Baltimore around the glen burnie aria but we have member as far north as new jersey.
we were founded in september of 1996 and at current have a whole bunch of new guys so i couldnt begin to tell you how many we have, i guess around 20 or so :?

but another galatia we must challenge them :)

We have challenged them, they begged for mercy and then we slaughtered them all!

lol...anyone that hasnt had us do that?

Well, i don't know so much if we slaughtered them, so much as they started calling us their "older, more evil brother" and offered to change their colors to match us. Oh, wait, Doug's right, then we did slaughter them.

Hail Galatia!
I am Tetrarch Stone, of the Richmond Galatia.
I remember talking to some of you at the Dagorhir Aratari Mayham 07 event. At the time Richmond Galatia (RG) was not an official unit so we were fighting with Gwynedd. When we first started making RG we did some extensive searches of the web but never found your Markland Galatia (MG) group.


The ancient Galatia was a land of several tribes with a common language and history. These tribes would meat in consol and would trade between each other but were free to do as they pleased. Ancient Galatians were also known as excellent mercenaries. One history I read, don’t remember were though, had Galatians on every side of many major wars between 400 BCE and 200 BCE. Having two Galatia groups in the same general area of the country is similar to the ancients. If you are ever in Richmond and want to fight come and join us. If any of our members become interested in Markland / SCA we will point them your way.

Galatia! Gold and Glory!

feel like you guys are our distant cousins.

Mor Grendel,

Apparently we forgot to slaughter one of them. I told you we shouldn't leave one alive!
