Historical match-ups for Biblical Season 11 . . .

Post by stockwellpete »

As previously indicated, the Biblical section will now alternate between historical match-ups and players choosing their own armies. So for Season 11 the mirror matches will consist of some new historical match-ups. I have come up with these five for consideration. The first pairing is based on a conflict about 60 years before the dates of the army lists, but I think it is still OK and I feel the Arab "civil war" one will work OK as I guess most players will not have used this army at all, so a couple of battles each with it might be interesting. I have not picked a Thracian match-up and they may be another possibility for a "civil war" battle in a subsequent season.

Assyrian 681-609BC v Urartian 685-585 BC (Conquest of Urartu 745 BC)
Arab 1000-313 BC v Arab 1000-313 BC (Awsan v Saba 700-600 BC)
Phoenician 681-539 BC v Babylonian 626-539BC (Phoenician revolts 626-605 BC)
Cypriot 680-550 BC v Egyptian 570-525 BC (Conquest of Cyprus 570 BC)
Achaemenid Persian 553-546 BC v Median 626-550 BC (Fall of Mede 553-550 BC)

These were the match-ups used in Season 9 . . .

Egyptian 664-571BC v Kushite 727-656BC (Invasion of Lower Egypt 664BC)
Median 836-627BC v Skythian 750-551BC (Skythian invasion 653BC)
Greek 680-461BC v Lydian 687-551BC (Campaign 615BC)
Assyrian 681-609BC v Babylonian 626-539BC with Median allies (Fall of Assyria 613BC)
Indian 500BC-319AD v Persian 545-481BC (Persian invasion 518-516BC)


If are likely to be entering Biblical in Season 11 and you can think of something more interesting then please let me know. :wink:

Themed Event Season 11 . . .

Post by stockwellpete »

This is going to have a medieval theme using the base game for FOG2 Medieval. All pairings will be mirror matches.

Group stage (players will get 2 of these 3 match-ups)
1. English 1155-1271 v Irish 1131-1259 (Invasion Of Ireland 1170)
2. Danish 1200-1319 v Free Canton 1200-1319 (War with Dithmarschen 1219)
3. Polish 1200-1319 v Mongol (Europe) 1223-1241 (Invasion of Poland 1240)

Semi-finals
4. Tinchebrai 1106 scenario from the Feudal North official set

Final
5. Bouvines 1214 scenario from the Feudal North official set

If you are likely to enter the Themed Event and want to suggest alternative matches then please do so. I do want to keep the mix of players choosing their own armies (group stage) and using official scenarios (knock-out stage) though, and Bouvines 1214 will definitely be the final.

It is not a FOG2DL game that you are referring to. Please contact the organisers of your tournament.

My name (or moniker on here) is DarkOmen..some may have known me as GrudgeBringer (I had some computer problems and Slitherine made me change my name to get back on for some reason)...I would need to be brought up to speed on rules/timeframe of moves, etc. I am dependable, but I really am very new to the game so I may not be that competitive..but I AM dependable. my email address for games is sfyke@kc.rr.com. Thank you and let me know. I may be out quickly and need some explanations, but I won't quit on you.

PM sent 4/5

Understood and I AM in..Classical Antiquity is my choice..if you have a form to fill out let me know where to get it...I take it it is the Fog 1 battles. Will these be the preset campaigns but with our preference of terrain and troops? I would take it you would use the SAME army thru out the tournament...in the battles I have played, there are times you have to take troops off the field, or can add troops... would suppose this is a moot point and not available here...If there is a sign in app or sign in page, please let me know and i will be in today...You know me..I will be the first there and the last to leave..no one will have to wait to play me...lol!! And THANKS for thinking of me and allowing me to play!!!

Recruitment does not open until Monday 17th May and I will send you an invitation then. :wink: There is no form to fill in as such, I just open the recruitment threads and players post their names in them. It is not FOG1 though, it is FOG2. If you enter Classical Antiquity you are required to choose 4 armies (from different nations) and you get allocated just one of them to use for your 9 matches. The battles use Pot Luck terrain and all units are on the battlefield at the start. The best thing to do for the next 2 weeks until recruitment opens is to work out which are your 4 favourite armies for Classical Antiquity. Maybe get a few practice matches in against other players. :wink:

Yes..I have been playing the Campaigns in Fog 2 without the DLC Persia...Thank you..I didn't know if I had to stick with 1 faction throughout the games...If i am correct you need not answer...say I chose Rome Phyrric Brits Carthage I will be assigned 1 out of those 4 and will have to play that 1 thru out. Wow..OK. So, don't put them necessarily in the order you want...lol. I promise you, I will NOT chose Rome I do take it these are Classic Antiquity no need to respond if they are..Just want to make sure I am playing the Era I have been playing...Thanks for setting this up..rules are well thought out and VERY fair...Good Luck to us all...BTW..Enaken E-mailed me. He is home, didn't know if you knew that and if he knew about the tournament...
