And I agree with the suggested Armies as per Tom.

In addition to the armies in Trade and Treachery I believe that the following armies from Clash of Empires might allow an army with two Keils to be formed: -

Hungarian
Early Polish
Kalmar Union
Early Imperial Austrian
Early Danish
Vasa Swedish
Later Imperial Austrian and German States

Dear all,

Bob suggests the following list of additional armies from Clash of Empires. Fine by me ( as indeed is any list which can legitimately field 2 kiels).

Hungarian
Early Polish
Kalmar Union
Early Imperial Austrian
Early Danish
Vasa Swedish
Later Imperial Austrian and German States

Definitely looking forward to this now. Will be at Cardiff this week, so hope to find out more there.

Do Hvy or Med Art have to be deployed first at this event?

Just checking is there a date restriction?

Keith

Trev, you can deploy guns at any point.


Keith, no date restriction. You must however have at least two Kiels in your selected army.

Tom

Dear all,

Could I please know of any other planned entrants.

At present I have

Paddy
Jerry
Ben
Don
Trev
Keith
Me

Then lists as soon as may be now. Thanks

Tom

Dear all,

Just got confirmation from David Burrows that he will join us.

T

Yes definitely in. trying to narrow down the army choice - who is the list checker and when is the due date?

Lists to me please. Email is t.elsworth@btopenworld.com

Tom

OK thanks Tom. I also want to remind folks that I have a slightly updated/revised PDF of the "Keil Speil" guide (originally done by Graham Briggs) available to share - please email me david_s_burrows@hotmail.com. Thanks

I thought Ray was coming along as well!

Trev,

Yes he is, I have now heard from him.

T

Great to have Ray - does that mean we are 9?

potentially 10, one more hopeful

Number 10 confirmed - Dene. Good job all.

R&R soon but need some more lists!

T

Dont think I will be able to make this one sadly, but still I'll cheekily hijack this thread to push for AN 8TH player for Roll Call ...!

Hi Tim,

I'm expecting Steve Holt from Burton to take up the 8th ticket in the next day or two.

regards Dene

Dear all,
