Who is playing FoG at Roll Call?

(I am)

Posted: **Wed Jun 20, 2007 10:05 pm**

I might be...

I offered to play in either FoG or DBMM to ballance numbers and to try to make sure both comps get enough numbers.

I have had lists from

Gerry Bawley and Mark Muslek from MAWS
Richard Bodley Scott
and Andy Ellis

I know Roger Greenwood has entered
as has Peter Butler from MAWS

Can these and any other laggards get your lists to me ASAP.

That said so far I have had precisely zero lists for DBMM but I believe there are five entries for DBMM other than me.

Clive Vaughan plans to enter Britcon. He just needs to get the paper work in. I'll give him a prod.

Prod.

For anyone who has yet to send me a list for Roll Call it looks like there may be a problem with my E-Mails. My the-riverbank.net domain has vapourised

If you have a list to send can you send it to james@urgentdawn.freeserve.co.uk

Cheers

Consider myself prodded - my application went off on Friday.
Roll Call & Britcom, both North West England - not user friendly to us Fenlanders - when can we get a FoG game in the East or South East? (I've done Usk & Leeds thus far with Manchester to come!!!!!)

Steve Hacker and I are coming, transfered over from the 25mm DBM as there was not enough players.

All I need to do now is print off the latest set of the rules and work out an army

James,

What scoring system are we using at Roll Call?

I would hope a better one than the one that was used at Leeds

Wasn't one suggested somewhere in this forum a while ago?

Why not try the Britcon one.

Posted: **Thu Jun 28, 2007 3:54 pm**

The scoring system I was thinking of is on the BHGS site in the Britcon rules section.

Essentially:

Look down the column matching the number of BGs you started with until you get to a figure of your APs lost – read across and get your Attrition Ratio, do the same for the opponent, and score accordingly. This creates a 32-0 system that matches the other systems used at Britcon:

Code: Select all

                     Army size (Battle groups)        Attrition
            <=8  9-10  11-12 13-14 15-16 17-18 19+    ratio
              0    0     0     0     0     0     0        0
              1    1     2     2     2     3     3        1
Attrition     2    3     3     4     4     5     6        3
Points        3    4     5     6     7     8     8        5
lost          5    5     7     8     9     10   11        7
              6    7     8    10    11    13    14        9
              7    8    10    12    13    15    17       11
                   9    11    13    14    16    18       13
             All  All   All   All   All   All   All      16

Your score = 16 - your AR plus opponents AR

Some examples:

Army A of 12 BG's against army B with 18

A takes 4 AP and B takes 8 - A has an AR of 3 , B has an AR of 5 so the score is 18-14

A takes 8 AP and B is broken - A has an AR of 9, B has an AR of 16 so the score is 23-9

Hope that makes sense.
