There seem to be a distinctive lack of European players

I just did as deeter suggested and sent a pm to Lysimachos. I even sent a pm to dazzam even though I don't know where he's from!
The location thread don't offer any help...do you guys have any name I might try and ask?
And what shall be done if I can't get a full team?

OK, peeps who I know are European and at least moderately active on the forum, at some time or other, are:
JMass
76mm
Skavnak
CheerfullyInsane

You may want to try PMing some of those.

Failing those.... I think I could bend the rules to include Razorback77 or Cothyso, who are European even if they are living in the UK. Both I believe play to a good standard. The time may be the issue for Cothyso... but we are only looking for 2 games over the duration of a month or so, so hopefully he may help you out of a spot.

How many players do have? Who's in so far?

PM form Eric: Hannibal is sending the Ptolemaic Greek Army to fight Match 1 (Very Open).

Davouthojo:
- Which army is Alexander sending to fight the Ptolemaic Army?
- Which army is Alexander sending to Match 2 (Open)?

No need to PM me, just post the reply here.

TGM: I still need your 1st army for Match 1 (Very Open) for the battle versus Pyrrhus.

I have tofman04,petran1978 & thekraken.
I thought about 76mm but I haven't seen much activity from him lately but also he have often stated he is not much for competitive games.
Cheerfullyinsane have posted in the thread where I ask for volunteers but he didn't apply for the team.
Hm...Cothyso have played his last game of FOG and will not come back from what he wrote himself. I can pm you the details if you're curious

I got an answer from dazzam and he would be happy to play but alas he is not European...he has seen the Eiffel Tower once but I guess it doesn't quite make him eligible

Give CheerfullyInsane a nudge... appeal to the Viking fighting spirit. Tell him Europe needs him!

I have been given the details re. Cothyso

Hi all!

Though a bit late (being busy with a lot of scenario editing) I'm ready to take up the challenge with my European fellows, if there is still a place!
Just waiting to cross the swords with other Noble Commanders!

hidde · Post by **hidde** » Thu Feb 03, 2011 10:52 pm

Splendid!
The players of the old world (and future masters of the ancient) are:

tofman04
petran1978
thekraken
Lysimachos
hidde

Guys, you can pm me thoughts about the selections of armies for the rest of the rounds. Also any preferences in what army you want to play. Better still any army you not want to use.
Maybe each team should have a thread for internal messages like in LoEG...with a gentlemens agreement not to take a peek at the others

Ceasar vs Pyrris

match two pic: Sureno Parthians open

I'm pretty sure Europe will be able to muddle through without my dubious helping hands.

But what with the LoEG, two campaign games in War in the East and a league in Blood Bowl, there simply isn't enough hours in the day for yet another competition......Well, unless I quit my job, but that carries consequences of its own

Best of luck to the rest of ya'll though.
