The first Time Control check on this coming Sunday will be the main focus for me from about Thursday onwards. I will be sending PM's to players who have not completed one match in any section they have entered. Remember, players who have entered the Themed Event get an automatic pass on this check at the 3 week stage.

The main purpose of the check is to identify any non-starters in the tournament so that I can replace them quickly with reserves. The second Time Control check two weeks later has its main focus on players who may have taken on too many matches and are falling behind schedule. Sometimes a player may be asked to drop a section to make their schedule more manageable.

I will also be checking the multi-player lobby over the weekend to identify challenges that may have been missed.

[Conteshard]

Division D

Conteshard (1600) Byzantine 988 - 1041 with Georgian 1008-1049 Ally beats Rob123 (1200) Andalusian 756-1049AD with Spanish 900-1049AD allies 44-12

I manage to be faster on my strong flank, but I was much more worried than what the final result shows. Thans Rob for the game!

[Blagrot]

Division E

Blagrot (British 600-1030 AD with Viking 780-899 AD allies) beat TomoeGozen (Byzantine 963-987 AD with Arab (North Africa) 789-999 AD allies) 62% - 51%

A brutal slugfest as the British fought their way over a river and up a hill under hails of Byzantine arrows, the Byzantine infantry fought stubbornly and their cavalry were a constant threat but the much vaunted Cataphracts collapsed quickly under a flank charge and exposed the infantry to be flanked in turn. A cracking game, thank you and i look forward to the next one.

(3-1)
