Looks like about 14 entries at the moment, though I am ringing around trying to drum up more players. I would be elated if we got 20!

Are you basing it on payments or army submissions? Mitch paid for the two of us but we bothe havent sent our armies in yet.

Damn. I keep on forgeting to do this. Sending through when I get home after work today.

Less than 24hrs to go now.

I have heard that a good number of entries have been made. With the somewhat wet weekend on the cards it will be perfect two days of table top gaming as our indoor activity. Good luck to all and take it easy on my army.

The Serbs need no mercy - though they may need to be tried for war crimes at the conclusion of festivities.

Over and out.

15 played at least one round in the end after the usual trickle of last minute drop outs. It was good to see a variety of armies and players from a variety of gaming backgrounds.

I will be running this again next year, stay tuned for details of format.
