Hello out there

Well we are about halfway there but now we are looking for European based and apart from North America, UK and Ireland any other part of the world.

Americas - deeter, batesmotel, TGM, Todd645 and iversonjm

Uk and Ireland - Triarius, gamerwd, ianiow, maharg25 and I

Europe - Hidde and cavehobbit

ROTW - massina_NZ, Tullius and pantherboy (has not confirmed yet)

Looking impartially at the team lists then I think that the Americas team are going to take some stopping, perhaps we will see new champions in the future.... Ave Caesar!

Of course, Hannibal, Pyrrhus and Alexander may have something to say about that... come on Europe and RoTW - form a team to give them a run for their gold!

You could combine Europe and ROTW.

Matt, a good idea but not now I'm afraid

Americas - deeter, batesmotel, TGM, Todd645 and iversonjm

Uk and Ireland - Triarius, gamerwd, ianiow, maharg25 and I

Europe - Hidde, cavehobbit and dvorkin

ROTW - massina_NZ, Tullius, rexhurley and pantherboy (has not confirmed yet)

Americas - deeter, batesmotel, TGM, Todd645 and iversonjm

Uk and Ireland - Triarius (capt), gamerwd, ianiow, maharg25 and I

Europe - Hidde (capt), cavehobbit and dvorkin

ROTW - massina_NZ (capt), Tullius, rexhurley and pantherboy (has not confirmed yet)

Americas any volunteers for capt.

If it is possible could we start contacting each other, introductions and what army is preferred

Just to confirm all allies are allowed. If we could have pushed it to 6 players I would have included the Later Hoplites. If 7 players? Although I do believe he fought in Afghanisatan. I think that was the ocassion where he re-equpped his pikemen to fight in the mountains. No idea about an Afghanistan army though.

Uk and Ireland - Triarius (capt), gamerwd, ianiow, maharg25 and I

Europe - Hidde (capt), cavehobbit, dvorkin and Boores

ROTW - massina_NZ (capt), Tullius, rexhurley and pantherboy (has not confirmed yet)

Also to confirm each round will take up to 14 days so 1 turn per day should be enough, taht's about 10 mins on average.

Well we are nearly there so again cheers guys.

Morbio any chance of you being the adjudicator/MC please.

Eric

Cheers

Craig

PS. I'll PM pantherboy as well

ericdoman1 · Post by **ericdoman1** » Wed Jan 25, 2012 7:45 pm

Fedem thanks for the quick reply. If you could please wait for massina to see if he can reach pantherboy and if pantherboy says yes.

Otehrwise if you contact massina and hopefully he will place you in the team, if PB says no

Thanks massina for keeping me upto date as well will add jonno to the team but give Fedem a chance to join as well if PB says no. I have pmd PB twice, the first time was a no but no reply on 2nd ocassion.

Americas - batesmotel (capt), deeter, TGM, Todd645 and iversonjm

Uk and Ireland - Triarius (capt), gamerwd, ianiow, maharg25 and I

Europe - Hidde (capt), cavehobbit, dvorkin, Boores and Demetrios

ROTW - massina_NZ (capt), Tullius, rexhurley, jonno and pantherboy (has not confirmed yet), Fedem if PB says no

Jumping the gun - Firstly making Chris/batesmotel captain, Demetrios to be the final European player and pantherboy joining the ROTW team.

Even so it is looking like it has been completed. Ruddy hell lots of pming for me, with LOEG games, TT discussions and this my PM boxes have been filling up to 100% in only a couple of days.

Again thanks to everybody who has helped. No way I could have done this without your help

hidde · Post by **hidde** » Wed Jan 25, 2012 9:00 pm

Just want to point out that Demetrios is quite busy with real life but has promise to join if
we can't reach a full team.
Since the cup doesn't start until Feb 14th there is plenty of time for anyone who is interested
to join for Europe.

Eric,

Are you going to decide which variant of each of the lists you are going to use or will that be the team's choice? E.g. There are 3 versions of the Late Achaemenid (general, Gaugamela and Bessos versions). There are two versions of Alexandrian Macedonian and multiple versions of the Indian and Thracian lists.

Chris

I'll give PB a couple of days to respond, otherwise you're in Fedem.

ericdoman1 · Post by **ericdoman1** » Thu Jan 26, 2012 3:49 am

They are as indicated.

Probably would be some confusion using the Tabletop lists

Just to confirm, all armies are from Immortal Fire and are

Later Achaeminiad Persian (not Darius or Bessos), Classical Indian (not Mauryan or Gupta), Thracian not client or customer:) ), Skythian and Alexandrian Macedonian (not Later Alex Mac).

The dates would be something like 336BC to 330BC based on Alexander becoming king on the death of Phillip.

I could probably penalise the thracians a bit, in that the Rhomphaia was rarely used, I think but stick with the list.

PB is not available for the Companions cup (yeah I hear the sighs of relief from over here), so Fedem is our fifth and final team member for the ROTW.

Fedem · Post by **Fedem** » Thu Jan 26, 2012 7:20 pm

Ok, sorry for the change

ericdoman1 · Post by **ericdoman1** » Thu Jan 26, 2012 7:22 pm

Caesar - North America - batesmotel (capt), deeter, TGM, Todd645 and iversonjm

Hannibal - Uk and Ireland - Triarius (capt), gamerwd, ianiow, maharg25 and I

Pyrrhus - Europe - Hidde (capt), cavehobbit, dvorkin, Boores and finir

Alexander - ROTW - massina_NZ (capt), Tullius, rexhurley, jonno and Fedem

And there we have it the full teams.

We have approximately 3 weeks so captains start communicating with your players about who wishes to use which army.

To confirm start date will be Feb 15th. So it would be good to confirm with players what armies they wish to use and start listing armies etc as soon as possible.

Again each team will play one another, so 3 games in total. Let's say 10 to 14 days per game.

Also for all players, check out the rules etc

I have had no reply from Morbio about adjucating so if anybody can think of somebody else, please contact them yourselves and try and get confirmation.

Otherwise I will organise.

Cheers
