outside the club and lunch is provided in the entry price
Format of the Day:
Please
arrive around 9am, the first game will start circa 9.30,
Army size: 4000
points. Armies should be selected from the scarab website online army
organisation lists. You may include up to 500 points of Legends of War within
the 4000 points.
We hope to
fit players into groups with a theme, which are as follows-
The Greeks
and enemies
Rome
and their many enemies
The Dark
Ages
But we’ll
try and accommodate any army you bring along.
If you have
not yet confirmed your attendance or army preference, please let Phil know as
soon as possible.
We intend to
play 2 games, and so to help speed up play, the following deployments and
objectives will be used. Attendees are urged to read the 'Battle Begins' section starting on page 153. You can download a
set of cards with the Battle Objectives from our web site to speed up
selection. Remember, 'No Plan Survives
Contact with the Enemy' on page 159.

You may use Veiled Hand (page 158) in the games,

it would be polite to let your opponent know you are doing so.
Terrain
Items of
club terrain will be on the tables. Don't forget to select at least one Rally
Point each. With that in mind, you will need to bring something to indicate
your Rally Point, and if you wish to bring one or two items of terrain, that is
absolutely fine.
Winning and Losing
There is no
“street cred” in winning a game of toy soldiers. There will be a number of
people who haven’t played much/at all, so please help them along and enjoy the
day.
