Hmmmm - looks like a lot of Civil Wars are on the cards (particularly in Division 1).

See you all there on Saturday!

Edit: by the way, how did all 3 teams from Central London (Dim Mortals, Seal Pup, Central London - Escape To Defeat) end up in the same pool?

Edit #2: weren't Seal Pup promoted to Division 1 last year?

Hot lancer action.

Excuse me but it is The Impalers - not Team Amey

I shall be demanding satisfaction on the gaming table on Saturday!!!

Theres no need to make a song and dance about it.

Predictions:

Division 1

MAWS
Warlords
Reigate
Oxford
Khoregate

Pool A

Hampshire Hogs
Impalers
Bun Shop
Team Akers

Pool B

Dim Mortals
Seal Pups
Milton Keynes
Escape to Defeat

The top 2 teams in Pools A & B will end up playing each other on the Sunday I believe. So you need to predict the order of all 8 teams in those pools

i would assume/hope pool A plays pool B. otherwise the 3 central london teams spend a whole day playing each other. which they do every week.

plus seal pup were supposed to have been sent up a division after last year.

just to complicate things...hehe.

dave.

Perhaps you should speak to Darrel about that.

But Teams in each pool will play all other teams in the same pool on saturday.

The top 2 face the top 2 and the bottom 2 the bottom 2 Sunnday.
So it may be a good idea to move one of them.

Don't know what is going to happen in the premier league though. Is there going to be a bye?

I'm just the messenger - honest!

Edit: by the way, how did all 3 teams from Central London (Dim Mortals, Seal Pup, Central London - Escape To Defeat) end up in the same pool?

I don't think Darrell appreciated that you were connected in this way - I've passed the message back and hopefully he will re-jig the draw. No-ones wants to travel all that way and then play your regular opponents.

Excuse me but it is The Impalers - not Team Amey

Lets hope they will be songs of praise and that life will be a long song and we shall be killing you softly with my song!

Looking for byrons team ?

Found it... Byrons name is missing off Keith pollens/ mikes "bun shop" team... He is bringing later Seleucid/Hannibal period

Thanks to Darrell for reorganising Pools A and B to split up the Central London teams.

Maybe I'll only be engaged in one civil war over the weekend!

Thanks to all involved it was a great week-end.

Five good games thanks to Tamsin, Keith, Pete D, Darrell and Gordon. Highlight was beating Pete D after many years of trying. Lowlight throws 45 dice needing 5s and only getting 3 hits.

Thanks to Darrell's cataphracts for dying and boo to Gordon's for not dying!!
