Yep should be there. Curious as to why chariots, Early Medieval, Late Medieval but no Classical lists. Probably should have just said Open.

[nikgaukroger]

Because of the basically classical comps that are running in the first few months of next year - this just keeps things a bit different and still allows a huge range of armies.

Hi James. I have asked Pete at Entoyment to withdraw me from the ADLG event at Beachead and switch the entry fee to your event. I asked him to enter myself and Laurence. As when and if this ever shows up I don't know so count myself and Laurence in. Money is defo paid as I did it last month. He (Pete) is aware.

[Jersey James]

Bookings are going well to get to 12 players already then. That's 6-7 already (possibly more, I'll check bookings with Pete) and still a month to go.

Looking forward to getting 100 years war English out of their box and trying the new mixed units.

How are you defining "non classical" for the purposes of this? Just the Classical lists set or a date range?

[Jersey James]

Morning,

Anything from the classical list books can't be used as the core of the force but can use used as allies... for example Median Empire from the Charriot Age could select its allies from a Classical Book

Anything else from any other period or region is fine, so any Asian, American or African lists that fall into the traditional dates for the classical period can be taken

As per Simon's suggestion there are alot of classical comps so it's as open as possible for taking anything else youd like to use

Kind Regards
