Interesting themes.

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

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

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.

Don

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.

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

That would be 'Alternate Format B'.

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

Hi,

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