Hi , i have already picked 4 leagues , i ll join if needed

(Reserve: Pool B, already entered 4 sections)

Thanks for invitation, Pete. I'd like to participate at 1200 FP as follows:

1. Median 836-627 BC with Assyrian 681-609 BC allies.
2. Achaemenid Persian 545-481 BC with Skythian or Saka 550-301 BC allies.
3. Hebrew 681-586 BC with Phoenician 681-539 BC allies.
4. Egyptian 570-525 BC with Kyrenean Greek 630-461 BC allies.

In Biblical, it says "... players are required to choose 4 [armies] (from different nations)...".

Would it then be allowed among these 4 to pick an army both as main and as ally, e.g.,

Skythian or Saka 550-301 BC with Thracian (Hellenistic Getae) 329-281 BC allies
Achaemenid Persian 545-481 BC with Skythian or Saka 550-301 BC allies

Or even e.g.,

Assyrian 681-609 BC with Egyptian 664-571 BC allies
Egyptian 664-571 BC with Assyrian 681-609 BC allies

?

Yes, that is OK. "Armies" refers to your main selection. "Allies" are your secondary selection and there is no restriction on those choices.

Ok, thanks Pete: then I know and may change my list. When's the deadline for finalising my choice of Biblical armies?

Why can we enter only 4 sections this season?

kraff wrote: ↑Sun Jan 24, 2021 11:11 am Why can we enter only 4 sections this season?

It has always been the case that initially I restrict players to 4 sections. Then I see how recruitment goes. I always try and get as many players involved as possible and Slitherine also wants me to do this. It would not be fair for some players to take 5 sections right at the outset if it meant that other players could not get a place. Now that we are about to open a sixth section of the tournament (High Middle Ages) it might be possible for me to allow more players to have a fifth section from next season. As far as this season goes, restricting players to a maximum of 4 sections has been very accurate as there are only a few places left and we have a record number of entrants. Plus there are still a few days of the initial recruitment period left and it is always the case that players apply to join the tournament as we are about to get underway. I have to say that I am at the limit of the size of tournament that I can cope with now. I do not intend to open seventh or eighth divisions at any point in the future.

I will take a slot if the final one is still open. Thanks!
