As a proud and wealthy nation, Albion has a thriving equestrian tradition. Thus 4 AP shall be invested.

The Pankratinian archer appears with a mountain bear-bow capable of great stopping power but little finesse. He eyes the other competitors exercising their mounts.
"What? We have to shoot from atop them? I thought Horse Archery meant . . . never mind."
The Pankratinian Committee on Competition allocated 2 Athlete Points on sport-adjacent training for this event.

"This is fine," says the Aurumian team captain. "We have plenty of gold anyway. It's in our name. Nice to get a bit of silver for a change."
The Aurumian team has been waiting all year to start SHOOTING PEOPLE FROM HORSES, oh, what, we have to use targets? Fine. SHOOTING TARGETS FROM HORSES again, having spent 8 points on it.

People's Republic of Rosam is a proud land of horse people humans, and they feel prepared for all things horse related and spend 4 points on shoot arrows from horses and hopefully not shooting horses with arrows.

We Albionites are natural sprinters! Very dangerous over short distances!

7 AP is invested to prove this point.

Running? On our legs? What kind of prole competition is this?
The Aurumian State begrudgingly submits 1AP in the hope that maybe they'll luck into a win again.

We have trained by running down the mountainsides. This will get our athletes accustomed to going very fast; flat ground should be no problem.

Pankratinia sends 4 Athlete Points of their sprinters who are not healing from sprains and breaks.

Running comes naturally to the people of Rosam.
The People's Republic of Rosam spends 3 points.

Hmm . . . some of the Pankratinian councilmembers frown, tallying medal counts and budgets; that knot behind the leader had been so tight . . .

No time to mope, 5 Athlete Points to support the might of the Mountains! It is time for the Pride of Pankratinia to prove their mettle!
