Interesting themes.

One question. The Superior/Average troop mix effectively prevents Early ECW Royalist Cornish 1643 option. Is that intentional?

[quackstheking]

Simply put - yes!

Hi Gents,

I'd like to take part in this competition again but it's proving impossible to raise a team from Burton. Lynnette is teaming up with Ray Boyles and Keith Spedding which leaves me as Billy no-mates.

Does anyone need a 3rd player? I have armies for all 3 pools. i would prefer to play in pool 2 but am happy to be in any of them.

regards Dene

Or you could and help out on the HOMABOD demo 54mm game

[quackstheking]

So far we have 5.33 teams (if we count Dene!). The are:-

1) MKWS - Don Avis, Will Denham, Paul Kitcher
2) CL Mediocre - Tim Porter, Dave Allen, Simon LeRay Meyer
3) Forlorn Hope - Charles Masefield, Bob Medcraft, Dave Parrish
4) October - Keith Spedding, Lynette Maxim, Ray Boyles
5) Les Trois Mousquetaires - Clive McLeod, Chris Beesley, Gordon Jamieson

Dene Green is available to "bulk out" a 3rd team and 6 is the perfect number of teams to enter. Any takes either for a 3 person team or two others to join up with Dene.

Let me know please.

I believe Stead Snr and a junior were looking for a third!

[dene]

I'd be happy to team up with Steve and Isabel.

regards Dene

[steads]

I thought that Isabel and I were entered as a team with Dave Saunders courtesy of The Urban Bunny. Obviously a break down in communication somewhere. Isabel and I are happy to be teamed with Dave or Dene. I will contact Dave off list as well.

[steads]

I have communicated with Dave and he is still keen to play so we have a full team.
Sorry Dene

[madlemmey]

Who came up with the team name : 'Danger Camouflet'? Brilliant!

[viking123]

So we need two more team some we can run two leagues.

[madlemmey]

That would be 'Alternate Format B'.

Having run that for Flames of War, it's quite stressful, good luck Quackstheking!

[madlemmey]

I'd be happy to team up with Steve and Isabel.

regards Dene

Dene, you still looking for a team?

[dene]

Hi,

Thanks for asking but I've teamed up with Ray Boyles and Keith Spedding as Lynnette has recently dropped out.

regards Dene
