Dominus Dragon has begun planning a 27½th Anniversary Bash for the Ultima Dragons, which will take place from August 23rd to 25th…in 2019. He notes that the name for it is just a working title, so I’m just going to throw out my suggestion here: “Halfway to Thirty”. Not that it’s actually half of thirty, but this event will come at (roughly) the midpoint between the 25th anniversary and the 30th anniversary.

Anyhow, Dominus has put up a simple website for the event, which gives a few details about it:

Dominus Dragon is planning to do an Ultima Dragons, Ultima fans, SOTA fans meet up in the southwest of Germany.

The date in the middle of summer was chosen because chances are people have time and more importantly, Gamescom 2019 in Cologne starts on the 26th of August through to the 31st. chances are Lord British (and maybe Lord Blackthorne?) will attend the Gamescom. So chances are that I can arrange for Lord British to attend our meet up as well. No promises because you never know his schedule etc.

The location is “Schloss Stocksberg” https://www.google.com/maps/place/Schloss+Stocksberg/@49.0882724,9.0069463,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x4797813123dbfba5:0xacaafe2b3831f471!8m2!3d49.0882724!4d9.0091403 and you can pitch your tent in the park or find places to sleep around there.

Tentative plans are for Friday to be a casual arriving day, meeting, drinking. Saturday featuring some kind of medieval quests, program and a feast in the evening. Sunday a breakfast and farewells.

As you can see, not many fleshed out plans but there is time for that yet.

If you’re interested in attending, you’d do well to get in touch with Dominus directly; he has posted an email address at the bottom of the event website. More details will doubtless be forthcoming as plans are actually made; for now, it’s enough to know the when and the where of it.
