The tournament is called the Pick'n'Mix because players can Pick'n'Mix what they play. The event is made up of two one day tournaments each of which is self contained and there are prizes for each day. Players can play the same set each day or different ones. They can play one day or both days, whatever takes their fancy.
This year I will definitely be running:
FoGAM:15mm
FoGAM:25mm (assuming enough entries)
FoGR:15mm
DBMM:15mm
I will probably also be offering (entries allowing)
Warhammer Ancients
Clash of Empires
DBM
Flames of War Early War
And Dystopian Wars
The format of the comp is three games a day, FoG and DBMM are played to 650 and 240 points respectively on smaller than normal (5 by 3 for FoG) tables.
The minimum number of entries needed to make this work is 4 players for one day and 8 for two days (because I try to avoid playing the same player twice in the weekend and with less than 8 that is pretty much impossible). If there are fewer than 8 entries and all want to play both days I would be happy to do different themes on the two days and let the players choose the theme.
The cost of this event is £5 per person per day.
The venue is easily accessible by public transport.
The venue has a deal with a local hotel for a twin room including breakfast for £40 per night so £20 per person if you have someone to share with.
Payment can be made on the day but entries beforehand are really really handy.
Last year there were only enough FoG:R players for one day of FoG:R. I hope that this year we can get enough for both days.
I am also tempted to make the two days based on different themes but don't know if that would put people off. I rather fancy Italian wars you see
