(Unofficial) Britcon R&R

[philqw78]

Since everybodys lists should be in today, or tomorrow if you're a bit tardy I thought I'd take my usual stab at guessing what people are going to use.

I think for early the theme this year will be Pikes, max Shooty foot and knights. Elephants add a bonus to any of the above. So here goes

EARLY

Andrew Martin__________Principate Roman
Bruce Rollett___________Spartan
Chris Proudfoot_________Later Mac

Graham Briggs_________EAP
Graham Evans_________Dailami

John Muir____________Seleucid
Lynda Fairhurst_______Han
Malcolm Gordon_______Spartan
Murray Evans_________Italo Norman
Peter Card___________Early Successor
Phil Powell___________Navarese
Richard Case_________Early Successor
Robert Amey_________Italo Norman
Ruben Novell_________Seleucid
Shaun Drummond_____Early Hungarian
Steven Hacker_______Alex mac
Tony Parkin_________Italo Norman
Xavier Piron_________Ptolemaic

MEDIEVAL

Alan Cutner_____________Swiss
Brian Espie_____________Iroquois
Dave Ruddock____________Serbian
David Fairhurst_________Ming
Eric Lajus______________Free Company
Eric Thomson____________later Hungarian
Gordon Jamieson_________santa Hermandoodaa
Graham Fordham__________war of the Roses
Guillaume Fremont_______war of the Roses
Harrison Pearce_________French Ordanance
Hugh Cameron____________Swiss
Ian Stewart_____________French BoredeNonce
John Patrick____________santa Hermandoodaa
Jon Akers_______________Anglo Irish
Lance Flint_____________Later Hungarian
Marco Fernandez_________French Ordanance
Martin Wirt_____________Swiss
Martyn Simpson__________French Ordanance
Paul Longmore___________Swiss

Peter Dalby_____________Later Hungarian
Richard Love____________HYW English

oops!! how embarrassing. was looking in the wrong place. got it's very own space...

[philqw78]

Have now added the later period. Theme for that this year will be Swiss, unless your name begins with "Ia" and ends with "n Stewart" then it will be the same boring old shite you take every year

[philqw78]

And, as a caveat, I have been reliably informed (and that means not by Dave Saunders) that my predictions can be fairly arse

[petedalby]

Since everybodys lists should be in today

I have the deadline as the 27th?

And there is no way I'd bring a Later Hungarian Army to a potentially Swiss dominated small table event. But maybe someone else will be braver than me?

And my prediction for Mr Fairhurst is Anglo-Irish. Can't believe Dave R will bring his Serbs? Will he?

The deadline is the 27th, that means before then surely. Or are you admitting to being ultra tardy Pete?

OK then Swiss, though I did warn you that the 'anal* examiner' had said my predictions weren't very good.

*meaning pedantic

And if Dave just rolls fives and sixes (as usual) he can bring what he wants

He's on the list in the Britcon thread. I don't make this stuff up you know!

Actually I do make most of it up

[petedalby]

I prefer to think of it as punctual - as in neither early nor late but on time. Although as my home pc with my army list on it is currently broken Mr Ellis will be getting another apology from me. But my list still won't be late - just not quite in an ideal format. (Sorry Andy )

[dave_r]

Can't believe Dave R will bring his Serbs? Will he?

I'm afraid you are going to have to wait until the R&R's are out before I will reveal what award winning* army I will be taking to this years Britcon. Whatever I take, i have been practicing for days and since I am on holiday for a week from Saturday, my list is in and approved.

I will be giving masterclasses** all weekend on how tactics have evolved in v2***.


* at least in my mind.
** as Monsewer Powell correctly states this largely involves throwing fives and sixes on a regular basis
*** including the controversial, but highly effective tactic of allowing elephants to charge your troops in the rear

[petedalby]

** as Monsewer Powell correctly states this largely involves throwing fives and sixes on a regular basis

Can I borrow them please?

Unfortunately Simon is unwell so can't make Britcon this year.

I know you're thinking big tough armies for the medieval period Phil, but I viewed it more like "less big areas of open space as all the terrain is crowded in". So had I done that I was tempted to take Izcoatl's boys with a few fortifications for a key gap.

[timmy1]

Finally an army that will be more colourful than Graham will be...
