Sign up below with your Home Army and optionally your Map choice.
Please do NOT edit your entry. If you change your mind about something then post a new entry, I will not be reviewing old posts after they have been processed.

Use any Ancients army, from the original FoG game or any DLC. Give the army name and it's dates (e.g. Spartan 680-461 BC).
There are NO Allies.
You may not select an Army list that has already been chosen, however there are no restrictions on multiple armies of the same nationality as long as they are for different dates.
You must have all the Ancients DLCs to enter.
By entering you are agreeing to abide by the rules viewtopic.php?t=121960 and are committing to completing 8 games in the 8 week time period, If you are unable to commit to this then do not enter.
The competition runs from 3rd October - 29th November (8 weeks).

To select a Map you need the Region (Med., N. Europe, Middle East, Tropical, Desert or Steppe) and the Type (Agricultural, Plains, Hilly, Wooded or Marshy - Mountain is excluded as it leads to maps being too restricted). Tropical, Tropical Marshy or Tropical Plains. Desert and Steppe have no type. The Regions for each army are listed below. If you don't select a map then it will default to Pot Luck.
So if for example you select an Alan army then for the Map you can EITHER select Pot luck (which will mostly be Agricultural) OR N. Europe and one of Agricultural, Rough, Wooded or Marshy.

My hope is that players will select some of the less used armies as with them all being mirror matches picking a 'poor' army doesn't have the usual disadvantages !

House Rule. No heavy artillery can be used.

Registration will close on or before 3rd. October.
If more entries come in after the spaces are taken I will open up another division.

I wish for pot luck for this map.
