Hi Spike

I'm hoping to take the Friday afternoon off work and may fit in a practice game.

I'm taking medieval, what about you?

Rob

I'm in the early period, should have said, still anyone else expressing interest and we can get matchups for everyone.

I'll be there. Can bring extra armies and play, providing I'm still not polishing JD and Colin's shoes.

to earn my keep.

Hi Phil,

I'll be playing NPOW so if you can bring me an army, I can give you a practice game on Friday afternoon if you're interested.

I will be around - happy to play either early or late period games.

What do you want to use Julian? I'll be using mainly Lancer types in the early period.

Well, it's a practice game for your benefit and my entertainment so I suggest you choose your nemesis amongst the available army lists and armies and I'll do my best with it. I'm happy playing with any old thing so think more in terms of what you don't want to meet in the competition so you'll have one game to practice against it.

But my army has maximum lancers

so is therefore scared of nothing.

I'll pm you the list. Come up with something to fight it and I'll bring the troops.

I will be available later, once Mr McNeils shirts are ironed and his helmet polished*

*The polished helmet is a prize. Think Pete Dalby got one last year.

You former army types are good with the brasso, and bootpolish-

I can assure you it's not very polished!

You'll have to have words with your wife then. I don't want to polish your helmet if you've not been looking after it

Leave the worm dangling and not even a nibble there Pete.

I am not available on the Thursday!

We could have a big doubles / triples game instead? That would be fun I think.

Something along the lines of Chalons at the Challenge, just not as organised
