Won't that make it difficult to move figures and roll dice?
Quick question - I am assuming that the available bonus points are a one off? eg 61pts max not 64? (Or 1 minimum not 4 if you prefer!) Cheers
It is a one off, one point bonus per player. It has been known to swing results. 8)

Campaign update:
Hi all,
Keith Spedding has been transferred to Bunshop 'B'. I will withdraw to main reserve position as I am not fighting as an individual.
Which means we are down to 7 teams, unless two or three players can miraculously be found.
Let me know.
Thanks Will
Gentleman,
As you are now no doubt aware, we are on 7&1/3 teams for Campaign. This would have brought about the ugly premise of byes and people missing games, something that I cannot continence.
However, the genius brain of Paul Cummins has come up with a truly simple, but effective answer, henceforth to be known as 'Alternative Format P'.
Thank you Paul
Each pool will be fought on its own, in a Swiss chess format, over five rounds. The team combined total will then be used to determine overall team rankings(1). Round 1 draws will be predetermined.
I will make the eighth player in the Wars of The Roses pool. I will play off scratch and be ineligible for any prizes/spoonage.
The bottom two players in 'Horse Lords' and 'Eastern' will then face off against each other(2).
Their scores will then be added to their teams for an overall team score.
I hope this makes some kind of sense.
Lists in asap please
Will
I'll be the one with the migraine sorting the draws.
Or the bottom player Vs the next opponent from the other pool they have not already played, see point (1) above.
And in the inevitable Wargamers and herding cats cliché, we are back to eight teams, and will be on Alt Format B of two divisions. >:(
8 lists in and checked.
Waiting on a couple of lists, but all players now in correct team postitions, and the draw is done
