Well, so happens that I am now able to come for sure and will need to borrow an army.

Thanks to my wonderful friends, Jeff, Steve and Doug... There is a glimmer of hope I can come.. Now I am scrambling to see if I can go ahead and use my vacation days.. Will find out in the morning... **Crossing my fingers**

I will bring an army ECW Royalists that anyone can use. Someone will have to catch me Thursday, because I won't be playing in the Friday FOG-R stuff. I will be running my Soccer games then. I might hand the army to Dan to pass on if need be.

Got of the phone with Herc/Jeff I have a 90 percent change of coming now

Both of us are looking for something for the theme on Friday.. I don't care what it is.. I just want to play, as does he. For the FOG:R open, I was hoping to get into FOG:N and letting Jeff use my Italian wars stuff. I was hoping there were still loaners for that still:-/

For FOG-N I believe that there are going to be loaners - Dan would be the one to ask.

Hey, thanks to Dan and Jeff for the hook up. I had a great time and enjoyed all my games (even my first 0-25 thanks to Jeff.) I know the turnout wasn't great, but I had no complaints and I think a good time was had by all.

I enjoyed it as well. Good to meet the Ohio crowd. How did your last game against Marc finish?

I lost, but not as big

I think by the end of the day I learned how to play the army a bit better. I believe that I had Marc about 2/3 or 3/4 of the way to breaking. The difference maker in the game was a combat between his two cuirassier BGs and my Gendarmes. If I could have held on there, I may have been able to break him before he broke me.

If that sounds like a lot of ifs, it's only because it is.

800 pt Catholics v Protestants.

Catholics 118
Dan H L German Catholic 52
Ethan Z L Imperial Spanish 45
George M Poles 21

Protestants 97
Jeff F Weimar 40
Andy S TYW French 39
Dan W Late 80yw Dutch 18

Round 1
French v Poles 17-8
Dutch v Spanish 5-20
Weimar v Germans 9-11

The Spanish defeat of the Dutch, forced the French intervention diverting them from tyring to once again put a French puppet on the polish throne. Meanwhile bloody inconclusive fighting in Germany

Round 2
Weimar v Poles 22-3
Dutch v Germans 3-22
French v Spanish 16-9

Both the Dutch and the Poles have been knocked out of the war and will take a bye in the last round. The French armies punished the Spanish Tercios’s at Rocroi.

Round 3
French v Germans 6-19
Weimar v Spanish 9-16
Dutch v Poles 10-10

The Catholic forces succeed, no doubt provoking a Swedish intervention in the next tournament.
