i have to admit i rather wish i'd taken more notice of Phil and taken Navaresse instead of alex mac.

having thought that the "super" troops of v2 would be knights, pike and elephants, i have to say that's been reduced to just knights.. certainly not elephants. moan moan.

Most of the "big boys" were in medieval this year. I played the players in 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 7th. Breaking two of them, one winning draw against Dave Handley and a flat draw against Pete.

More importantly, on the bhgs score sheet I am shown as 1 and not equal first.

So Yah boo sucks to you too :)

It's his ego, and unfortunately for us in the UK, we won't hear the last of this (even if he had to go to some weird tiebreaker to "win"- despite actually being joint first "again" :twisted: )

6 BG of Armd Kn. End date was 1066 so could take cav, but that would have been foolish.

?
If you mean the flank march, then 1 BG knights, 1 BG of 4xLF all allied.
