Rome Betting

Myself, Hammy, Phil and Nik have a tradition of betting on whom will finish in the top three of a tournament, with beer exchanging, erm, tummies at the end.
You nominate your top three and you get three points for a perfect place and one point if you get a player in the top three. You also have to nominate the top local player (in this case Italian) in case of a tie break.
Just to get the betting and interest started, here is what we have picked:
Phil Powell
1. Phil Powell
2. Dave Ruddock
3. Rafa Tortosa
Tie Breaker: Sergio Monteleone (because of his films apparently)
Dave Ruddock
1. Dave Ruddock
2. Marlio Guglielmo
3. Phil Powell
Tie Breaker: Marlio
Nik Gaukroger
1. Dave Ruddock
2. Phil Powell
3. Pedro Sanchez
Tie Breaker: Rocchi Andrea
James Hamilton
1. Dave Ruddock - I know this was painful

2. Phil Powell
3. Dave Allen
Tie Breaker: Walter Ierman
I won at Washington so this lot all owe me beer

The army won on its own. I was merely a passenger

Just added it to my site.
5 units of supported Superior legions, only 6 units of DRS auxilia, only 2 units of LH and 1 of Reg A LMI Bw.
Having 5 superior legions (rather than making all the shooters and support troops superior and minimising th elegions) makes it Marginally Less Morally Bankrupt IMO.
But only marginally.

I, however, did win the most coveted prize of all. Best tanned Brit. So for successfully defeating the Italian sun, and Spanish police men, I won 4 painted 15mm Stug G tanks. Just need to figure out what to base them as, Kn or Cats?

They are obviously Battle Wagons

. Not sure if they should need a CMT to move, though.

In Italian "Il premio per il inglese più rosso"
