We'll looking at the Scottish players the guessing is really random. Eric Thomson has pretty much used the same army every year at Britcon and French Ordannance is not it!!

Perhaps not entirely random for the English. I have used Seluecid before in a team competition. We played MAWS and Ruddock surrendered 25-0 in 90 minutes. He claimed bad luck. The sort of bad luck that left his column of Galatian warband hit by elephants with overlaps on either end, it seemed to me. If you put them in a stupid situation, you can't blame them for fragging at impact.

It says random and guesses at the top.

People sometimes change as well, so I give them the opportunity to.

Even the Scottish can change, come September :twisted:

you could put your own more educated guesses in

Ilkhanid! Where did that come from. Not a list I've ever used. Though not confirming or denying.

You like shooty cavalry armies, but this one has decent LH and some knights, which I think your last Britcon army lacked IIRC
