Dave Allen will get his list to the list checkers tonight.

It got lost somewhere in the move.

List despatched. Sorry for the delay.

Well it is a bit extreme, but if you all want to buy me expensive drinks, I suppose I'll just have to take my punishment like a man

Dave

Ah yes get you squiffy before the game - good move. I might have a chance then........or not...

No sweat Dave........Just glad all is ok and you will make it.

See you at the weekend.

cheers

Jim

there will be much carnage!

German beer and war gamers, always a good mix.

Well having seen the runners and riders that confirms my last place!!
Look forward to playing you Richard.
Do not know the foreign players but from the British my guess for the top 3 places will be Ben Jones, Jim Gibson and Tim Porter.
Who wants to put forward their views?
We could even have a sweepstake - 17 riders at 5 euros each would give a good pot.

Bob

I thought Dave Redhead worked for the Council in Manchester but he is not going to Britcon.

We two guys from Hannover (Christian & Sebastian) will certainly not end up in the first half of the table.
We're just too unexperienced, but look forward to play against some new opponents (we usually play against each other, cause there are no other FoG-players in town), see some nice armies and have some beers with even nicer guys

Little bit afraid if my english will be sufficient for relaxed games, but we'll see.

@Derbo: you will get atleast one win, versus Bob (aka Viking123) if he brings his usual dice and a very enjoyable game thrown in as a bonus

Trust me Derbo, your English will be a million times better than the Brits German

Don

And in some cases the Brits English.

Bob

Derbo, we have the same army (well it depends how you have made yours up) so it is down to die rolls and has Nigel has suggested I can roll lots of 1's for death rolls.

Bob

I see that there are plenty of british submarine (and some german Uboat )
Interesting Runners, what kind of army is hungarian - transilvaniana ? From which book ? Thanks Matteo

Suggest? but you do and 2s for your superior morale checks

It is WOR page 32.

Its quite a neat army actually....Wars of religion
It has some good superior carbine/pistol cavalry
Superior musket swordsmen and some HW musket.

Well used it will be troublesome.

As for submarining.....my army is too high risk so suspect win or bust.

see you soon
Jim

Thanks IT looks interesting, love international compettion 'cose there I can see different armies see alla of you in Koblenza

Looking forward to having a beer with you Matteo
