How do I Form a Group?

[thewoman]

Hi I've been searching for a group near me. I'm in Moncton, New Brunswick. I'm really dissapointed since there doesn't seem to be any in the Maritimes at all. How do I go about forming a group here? Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi "thewoman",

Yes, Belegarth is just getting it foot in the door in Canada at the moment so our groups are a bit thin. I will ask the Thunder Bay guys if they know of any other Maritimes Belegarth people. I have been a Moncton a fe times, I really like it there. It is a neat little city.

Starting a realm is a lot of work, but it can be very rewarding and we would live to help you through the proses in any way we can if it something you want to do.

These are 2 great resources for starting a new group:
An extensive kit that you download: resourcestore.wordpress.com/2009/10/19/newrealmkit/
A similar but slightly smaller web kit: geddon.org/index.php/New_Realm_Starter_Kit

I hope those aren't to much to digest right off the bat. BTW, how did you find us?

Edit: I moved the thread to General Mayhem, I hope you don't mind.

Closest thing I was able to find was a NERO realm in New Brunswick:
www.nero.nb.ca/

Maybe point them in that direction and have them talk to the NERO fighters? They may be familiar with other foam-fighting games in the area or might be interested in a more combat-oriented game? Worth a shot...

From my knowledge of NERO, it's more roleplay-oriented and far less combat-oriented in comparison to Bele.

I would defiantly contact these guys. Having a good relationship with the other groups in your aria is very beneficial. I would also check if there is SCA in your aria. If you try ether and like them just fin, good, but if they aren't quite what you are looking for the people there probably know people in your aria looking for something like what we are doing.
