The 15mm event will run with 6 games over the weekend, (Friday night, 3 games on Saturday and 2 games on Sunday) with players required to bring 2 armies, one being used for rounds 1-3, and a different army used for rounds 4-6.
Each year we will pick 2 of the following 4 themes to be played:
- Theme 1
- Biblical Ancient and America, 3000 BC – 501 BC for non-American lists. Any list from the America section of the lists is permitted, but no Europeans are allowed.
- Theme 2
- Classical and Roman 500 BC – 492 AD.
- Theme 3
- Dark Age/Feudal 494 AD – 1329 AD (No Heavy Knights or Foot Knights allowed).
- Theme 4
- Medieval 1330 AD – 1500 AD.
- In 2025, Rounds 1-3 will be with armies from Theme 1, and Rounds 4-6 will be played using armies from Theme 3.
- A different army list must be chosen for each period
- Allies must be valid in the same dateline as the main list
- All armies are 200 points
- Standard sized tables of 120cm x 80cm.
- Players must bring their own terrain pieces and ideally cloths too
25/28mm Event
The 25mm event will run with 5 games over the weekend, (3 games on Saturday and 2 games on Sunday) with;
- All armies drawn from Theme 4 (Medieval) as listed above
- The 25/28mm period is for armies based on '25mm bases' with 60mm base widths.
- Other figure scales on these bases are totally acceptable as long as they look nice :-)
- 200 points
- 6x4 tables
- Players must bring their own terrain pieces and ideally cloths too
The timetable for 15mm is as follows:
- Friday : 6:00pm earliest start, 730 latest start, play to a conclusion or around 11 pm when time will be called.
- Saturday : 0930-1145, 13:00-1515, 16:00-1815
- Sunday : 09:00-1115, 12:30-1445
- These games times will be extended by a few minutes (up to 15) as decided by the umpires.
- When time is called there will be a 'hard stop' to the games - put the dice down, and work out the result. We know there are pro's and cons to this system, but it is the same for everyone and greatly helps the overall organisation of the whole event (we are inputting scores and calculating draws for almost 200 players across 10+ other events too) by preventing games dragging on and holding up the scoring.
For 25mm there will be no Friday night game, with the 5 rounds running to the same schedule as the 15mm competition on Saturday and Sunday.
Scoring will be done on the usual French system.
