FIGURES
If you have UGs with mixed troops within them, such as Knights and Sergeants, please ensure that the figures you are using do distinguish between them in such a way that your opponent can see the difference. A number of lists even mention in notes that in such mixed formations the troops must be "easily distinguished". Obviously the figures for the different types should also be historically plausible for what they represent (within our usual "don't take the piss" approach).
TABLE SIZES
180cm x 120cm tables (ish).
DURATION
All games will be 3hrs 15 minutes - other than Friday evening's game which can last until last bound is called.

Britcon Meggers
Friday setup -
Draw will be done at 18:00pm based on who has arrived being put into a hat and matched up - avoiding clubmates on first round.
Then any further arrivals to be paired up.
Normally we drop stuff in the venue and meet up for food and beer opposite beforehand in the pub The Horn in Hand as games can drag on.
Please bring a cloth.
See ya there - safe travels.
