Slitherine

David,

Thanks, you are on the list. As well as you and Keith we currently have me, Jerry, Paddy. Bob is possible.

Paddy and I had a great practice game Monday, I think that this theme is going to produce some cracking games and some interesting army choices.

Anyone else wanting to join please let me know as soon as you can.

Thanks Tom

Be interesting to know what Armies you and Paddy used (not details, just which list)

David (B)

I used later Royalist and Paddy used Louis 14.

I have heard a wide range of suggestions e.g Poles, Milanese, Huguenot, Tartar, Turk etc.

T

I have just heard from Chris Beasley that he will be joining us on the 18th December for our 75% mounted theme. Any more please let me know as soon as you can.

Chris kindly made suggestions about dates for next year as follows. Are there any thoughts on these dates? OK in principle?
I shall need to check the hall availability but it is great to have a starting point.

Extract from Chris' email:-

"Sunday 12th March,
11th June
10th September
17th December
All themes and scales/table sizes TBA
None of these clash with a REG event but most are only a week away from one such.
I believe Badcon to be 25/26 February and assume Devizes is 15/16 July but I do not think that has been confirmed"

Tom

I should add that the current entry count is 7 - so 5 more please.

Tom

Ray

Ray,

Great. Thanks.

Everyone, lists ASAP now please. Expecting some really creative ideas - unlike mine, Later Royalist.

Tom

Andy Kitcher will join us but it looks like Paddy will not be able to.

Lists please!

Tom

Correction, Paddy has returned to the fold.

Everyone, armies as soon as you can please so I can do a draw.

Tom

Any more entrants for Dec 18th? 3 spaces left.

Tom

Draw for Sunday 18th December - provisional.

this is provisional because I have not heard from Paddy or Chris what armies the plan to use - hence they are drawn against each other for now.
