This is a quiz covering all aspects of the Hawks club including rules,
rituals, club history and maps among other things. Everyone, from the highest
ranking Hawk to the most casual of guests may participate. The
only person who may not participate is...me.
Most answers can be found in various aspects of Hawks recorded history,
including but not limited to the web site, Forum and various published manuals.
This quiz is designed so that NOBODY will get all the answers correct.
Therefore, there is no benefit to turning in your answers first. In the
unlikely event that there is a tie, I shall conceive of a tie-breaking round.
Participants have until the end of this month (January) to turn in their
answers to me via e-mail. Take your time and use all the days
alloted. Once you have submitted an answer sheet, no
more will be accepted on your behalf.
Use your best judgment on how to answer each question. I will give no further
instructions than those given at the beginning of each section. Total points
possible are 100.
Top score will receive the prize book Masters of the Battlefield with its numerous fold out maps
and sturdy book casing. The next 2 runners up shall receive a small consolation
prize. This means there will be 3 prizes given in all for the top 3 scores.
Do your best as no more clarifications shall be given other than what is
written here (that is part of the contest). Good luck.
