Hi All
12th October in Bakewell is a DBA matched pairs tourney.
Any two armies from any period.
Only rule is they must be an allowed enemy of each other so no Crusaders and Early Imperial Romans for e.g.
Each game you roll off with your opponent to see who's pair you use. Trick is that if it is your armies that get used the opponent chooses which of the two you will fight with. This stops you taking a killer army and a duff one as you will pretty much have to play the duff one.
You can take enough figs for all the allowed options or just a 12 element army.
It works really well and means it is unlikely you will face 5 elephants for e.g.
This time there is an optional twist, you can just take the lists you want but organiser has asked that if we are able to take forces with at least six bow, pike or aux stands we are using some additional rules to test them.
I am def going and am happy to drive if anyone wants a lift, let me know early so I can let the organiser know.
It really is a great day out and Bakwell is of course also rather famous for well Bakewell so plenty to eat.
Costs a £5.00 which is a bargain. You also get unlimited tea and coffee and snacks and there are even prizes I hear, non have made their way into my hands unfortunately mainly cos Reece keeps killing me.
