Small typo I think that "1000 points with 4 games." should "10000 points with 4 games."
Sorted, although maybe we should do 1000 ;)

How are the numbers going?
Will ascertain tomorrow
Still a bit of time to go yet.
I have just entered.

Looking good.
Shieldwall weekend then.

Could be Arab-tastic ;D
It is definitely shaping up as an Arab fest. Still trying to decide if that is a good thing or not. Too many Arab Conquest perhaps.
Well, I definitely won't be Arab Conquest...

It could be popular, it is a sound army. But hardly unbeatable.
Ade Nash is in, Simon Elliot is circling... 8)

Norman's probably for me although loads of other possibilities. Defo not Arab Conquest.
Prob not that either for me, but prob something from the Arabia book 8)
Ticket bought. Now to revamp my army !!! :-\
Ticket bought
Numbers certainly increasing and no doubt will continue to do so. Plenty of time.
Pete Simpson is in too

PS Unless I've been blacklisted, of course. I was planning to take an army with lots of allies but I thought that would just annoy Robin, not get me banned...
No, just not been informed, welcome back on board Doctor

So no is the answer.

Everyone will be pleased to hear that I won't be taking a shooting cavalry army.

Am I right in saying that allies must also be from the Early Medieval list pdf?
Yes.
And I said it first! :P
Thought that was the case but just wanted to double check. Not long now.
Four lists in so far. 8)
How many players signed up so far ?
18
5 lists in now
7 lists in. Good mix so far
Managed to narrow it down now.
Was either Visgothic, Norman, Early Arab, Berber, or Anglo Danes :-\
Now its down to Norman, Early Arab, Berber, or Anglo Danes ;D

Gentlemen,
I present to you a most enthralling document.
Discovered in the bowels of the great library at Derventio, scholars have found a most interesting illustrated guide to the Dark Ages in Europe and The Middle East.

Oh, you want ACTUAL Runners and Riders?

Personally I'm really looking forward to this weekend. 'Will' is one of the best comp organisers. Good location. Decent hotel. Assume a fair few of us will be heading for a nice 🍽🍷in Derby Saturday night. No snow and Ray should be safe on his feet this year. I think we should rename this comp Snowgate in memory of 2017 ❄☃⛄

Will is definitely top 5 on the comp organiser scene. ;)

Tough luck on Lee - hope you are well soon mate. I could potentially head down early tomorrow morning if you still need?

Great news. Contact Will.
Hunter confirmed
Confirmed as what?
Insane? Unhygienic?
Thanks to everyone for another great MeG weekend 8)
Results are in.
Thank you everyone who played, RJC who umpired and won a well deserved best sport too, and Ian and Rob for their hospitality and great venue. Robin won a well deserved best painted too.

Will, thank you for your organisation. A really fun tournament with quite a spread of armies.

Thanks to Will for organising another excellent tournament and to Boards and Swords for their hosting.
Richard
Yes. Great event. Really enjoyed it. 4 good games. Well 3 really but my cock up v John Munro. A wound from breaking Hunter. Stuffed Adrian's and Ade's Normans. Nice Pizza. Revolting gateau 🤪felt sick. Shouldn't have had a nibble 🤔 Thanks to Will. And thanks for Best Painted. Looking forward to Stockport.
