Pre set terrain saves a bit of time.

Mind you I can lose a FoG:R game in a lot less time that 2 hrs 40 mins

Alasdair,

800 points in 2 and a bit hours sounds a bit manic

Don

Depends if both sides attempt to move their troops...

Hi Don

cheers

Alasdair

Update 7 Entries 4 army lists in excellent and its still november at the moment the upper limit is 24 but if we get close to that number we'll see if we can squeeze in a couple more tables

Please remember your list into me at alasdairharley@hotmail.com confirms your entry, money I'll take on the day

[donm]

Alasdair,

To get a result in that time I suspect it may be a cavalry fest.

Should be fast and bloody.

Don

[kevinj]

What about narrower tables?

[alasdair2204]

11 Players

6 lists already looking like a great one

[blackbeard]

My list is on its way

[alasdair2204]

Thank you to everyone, obviously with a new idea we are never sure it is going to work

but with already 13 entries and 7 lists in this is definitely going ahead and looking good

Thanks again everybody

[alasdair2204]

Hi everyone

now for your historical expertise, we need first to 3rd prizes and last prize these are based on generals in the period, so Who do you think is the most successful general in the period Early Turkish Expansion 1494-1566 2nd and 3rd and by far the most important who was the worst, let us know then I can create the prizes (well certificates anyway)

cheers

Alasdair

Nik your in

[timmy1]

Alasdair

Not my period but according to Oman, Sultan Bajazet II is clearly the worst...

most successful has to be Sultan Selim II - conquered Armenia, Iraq, Syria, and Egypt.
second is Suliman I, who we know as Suleiman the Magnificent - winner of Mohacs, of 3 wars in Persia, and in the Med, Indian Ocean, and North Africa. He also laid siege to Vienna, Rhodes and Malta.
third is probably Khair ed-Din Barbarossa, known as Redbeard. A pirate but with large conquests in the Med.

[alasdair2204]

Thanks Timmy

so far we have

1st Prize the Suleiman the Magnificent Award
2nd Prize ?
3rd Prize Khair ed-Din Barbarossa Award

Last Prize either King Louis II of Hungary or Sultan Bajazet II Award

Thats a start any other suggestions / changes

cheers

Alasdair

[nikgaukroger]

Jean de Valette - Grand Master of the Knights of St John during the 1565 siege?

[alasdair2204]

Thanks Nik

so far therefore we have

1st Prize the Suleiman the Magnificent Award
2nd Prize Jean de Valette (Maybe he should be first prize and Sulieman 2nd)
3rd Prize Khair ed-Din Barbarossa Award

Last Prize either King Louis II of Hungary or Sultan Bajazet II Award

Thats a start any other suggestions / changes

cheers

Alasdair

[timmy1]

Louis II prize has to be the last placed award...
