Mike Baldwin
Keith McGlynn
Andy Clarke
Steve Hacker
Andy Claxton

An odd number at the moment, but I believe an entry is on the way to me.

It is my intention to ensure that anyone from the same club will NOT paly each other in any round.

In view of this there will be two first prizes. One for the top visiting player and one for the best home player.

Busy finishing figures :shock:

No. In my view the proposed system is too complicated, and I really don't like the idea of a system where players cannot easily work out their own scores - if only to check that the tournament organisers have entered them correctly into their computer system. Don, of course, won't be using a computer system.

David,

The offer of the cataphrats that I have still stands if you don't get all the painting done.

I have just finished the prizes.

We will be using the scoring system that Richard has already sent me. I will give out copies on Saturady morning.

I would like the weekend to be more about how the rules work and look in 25mm, rather than fine tuning.

All,

Runners and riders

Richard Bodley-Scott - Later Ptolemaic
Dino - Later Cathaginian
Bob Medcraft - Later Macedonian
Lynda Fairhurst - Palmyran
David Fairhurst - Syracusan
Dave Allen - Alexandrian Macedonian
Mike Baldwin - Arab Conquest
Keith McGlynn - Roman of some kind
Andy Clarke - Teutonic Knights
Steve Hacker - Alexandrian Macedonian
Andy Claxton - Later Seleucid
Andy Whitby - Principate Roman
Brian o'Dea - Gepid
Kevin Fisher - Foederate Roman
