I won't be using my Swiss at this event, as its bad form to win your own event!
My umpire army, should it be needed, will be Kushite Egyptian

Was that based on your knowledge of who won last year Spike? LOL

Phil kindly filled me in on that rule after last years event.

With the group we have we should hold the competition in Manchester, much less travelling time. LOL

Thanks for organising this Spike.

Double thanks from me Spike both for organising it and for forgoing your Swiss as 50% Swiss might have been a bit much.

I think I am starting to get the hang of them now.

i was never going to use them, it was either the kushites, or an army of entirely poor classical greek.
